Whilst I am Halifax RLFC follower and will be until either I or the club dies, and at this rate I will back myself to outlast Fax!
Yes like a few others, Singapore, and there was at least one from Aus that used to post on here, we don’t have to watch the dismal fare that is served up week after week at the present time like you guys. It hurts just the same, and I get ridiculed by fellow expats who follow SuperLeague teams and cannot believe the depths we have fallen to, granted they admit they have money men behind them, something we have not had for some time. I look at the names on the team sheet and wonder what the hell has gone wrong, like other have said our spine would be welcome at almost every other champ club. I have not yet listened to the fans forum but the consensus was nothing really positive came out that night, the board who promised a major forward push have gone quieter than All Souls church I used to attend, and has been shut for some 30 years. I asked previously on another thread about Finn losing the dressing room, is this the case? If so as I don’t see a way out, can’t afford to sack the coach, and he won’t walk (ala Grix) and have to play players who will pick up pay checks because there seems no other players out there. Is there anything in the rules to field 17 amateur guys in Halifax colours?, could hardly be worse.
Unfortunately I do not have the answer, that is what the board are supposed to do. Not looking forward to watching the York game on panthers TV, but I will just like you guys glutton for punishment. I just wish someone would tell the truth and lay it all out then a way forward might be seen.

Lilley's a tough lad but is much better suited to hooker than halfback IMO.

When speaking to the directors/staff last week in France, the playing budget is likely to be £150K less next year, so we have to be realistic re any signings. But we have circa 20 already signed up. They suggested Ikahihifo wouldn’t be coming, his demands are too much. And listening to Keyes, he didn’t sound too happy to be signing for Bradford

If it's common knowledge that Finn is leaving, why hasn't it been announced? I know it's been a tough season for him, but it appeared he was relishing the challenge so I'm surprised he's moving on, especially to Huddersfield.

As long as the season was running and with the question over if we would be still in the division not answered until just 2 days ago coupled with all the disruption from start to finish covering everything from series injuries, the Shay, players and staff not being paid etc, even if Finn is leaving to have announced it during the same period maybe not the best of timings.

Things sound to be being put in place for next year so i’m sure there will be a number of announcements shortly.

We’re hearing rumours of a more positive note and on timing after the big lift and cracking game against Bradford being fresh in peoples minds ASAP would be a good time to start you would have thought.

After all he’s had to deal with, deal with it he has so maybe it wouldn’t be the worst thing to see what he can do with a squad that’s more of his own making.

Finn's departure now confirmed. So who will replace him? Possible return for Murrell, Grix or Harrison? And will Finn be taking Connor Davies with him?

All the best to Liam who IMO did a great job in really difficult circumstances. Before the Batley away game I thought we were nailed on relegation but he turned it around with a game to spare.
