You have to say with all due respect to Dewsbury it is them we want at home.

so thats the team coached by the great, must have, next coach of Halifax, Karl Harrison, knocked out by Dewsbury? And Fax coached by Matt Calland are in the Semis?


Where's all Karls supporters now. . ?

What was the score of the last Batley vs Halifax game?

Good wins for Wakey and Cas. Keep it up boys.

Look what he starts with, he over achieves ever week with what he has, Calland under achieves!!

calland underachieves?? One gf LOSERS MEDAL - ONE gf WINNERS MEDAL - In the last 2 years?????
Underachieves????

Put it this way - if Fev win the GF this year his record will be equal to Callands! Daryl is rightfully England no2 and I rate him as the best British coach in the game.
I honestly think you're beingtoo hard on Calland. It's a results based business and he's got results!
Things have changed for him squad wise - things beyond his control! Judge him in August!

To be fair to Karl he has developed a team with peanuts that would most likely be in the division below (with all due respect to Batley) without him. Todays game was a heavy woolen derby and anything can happen in a derby.

With the team we have had we should have won the grand final the last two years, we are poorly coached and have no motivation, only our skillful players and a miracle pulled us out of the s**t last year!!

Losing 2 players in the first half didn't help. Ran out of juice.

Is it too much of this weekend's sunshine you've had too much of, or just beer ?



Sack Faz !!!!!

The BBC obviously making up scores for the NRL. Actual results were

Melbourne Storm 38 v Parramatta Eels 0
St George/Illawarra Dragons 25 v Canterbury Bulldogs 6

Harrison has built his team up from almost nothing, when he took over they were in trouble at the wrong end of the table, we'd recently beat them 72-0, I remember reading post's from their fans on various websites saying they thought the end for Batley was near having done so well to hang on and keep going for so long. Look where they are now, Amazing how things can change in just a few years.

Sack the board too. We should be top of Super League we're that damn good. Everyone at the club is holding us back. Let's storm the Shay on Sunday and take over the running of the club - we could do so much better. I'll be the Club Conditioner - my pot belly and unfit regime will whip the lads out of shape. I'll have 13 Stuart Barnes' on the pitch before July.

You can be Club Chaplain because your words are an inspiration.

Who's up for Chairman?
Who's for Commercial Director?

Nominations please..............................

I will nominate myself as Chairman as long as i can do a job share and fit this position around my morning & evening paper round. Also if the sunday papers are delayed i might not be able to get to the ground on time for the pre match dining package.

You'll also have to deal with Richard Lewis and Nigel Wood at the RFL. You sound a bit overqualified to be honest.
