We can't lose this one....can we?

Fax will win this one by 40 points.

Does anyone care?

That's buggered it! Lol!

Serious question, what's our lowest attendance for a league game? Is that in danger?..

We used to average in the 100s in the 70s, so probably not. But as I've said time and time again, if Fax are expecting folk just to turn up and pay 19 quid to watch a game of lower tier rugger with no other entertainment on offer, we're totally buggered. We'll be joining the bullies at doosbury before long.

Summer era record then?.

I can guarantee that it'll be a record for the September 2019 era.

Its a complete dead rubber of a game at the end of a poor season that gets 5/10 if you include the challenge cup run....cant see people queuing round block to get into Shay on Sunday TBH....

I think our smallest attendances in the Championship are
2004 Rochdale 1301 the season after relegation
2014 Whitehaven 1317
2015 London 914 This was played @ Keighley
Several Challenge Cup Ties Lower inc 2018 v Oldham 688

Mick, we played Rochdale earlier in the season they brought 100 fans at most.Fax must realise teams like Swinton, Batley, and Dews are currently better than you,and Fax are now a below average team,I think a crowd of more than 1,000 will be a good gate .Hopefully I’m wrong.

I will be shocked if we get a thousand

Well, you've missed our last 2 matches for a start:

1,205 v Sheffield
1,290 v Toulouse
CC against London 728

Also remember lower crowds in the Shield at the end of 2016 when we failed to reach the qualifiers:

1,228 v Sheffield
1,133 v Dewsbury
1,182 v Oldham
1,217 v Workington

Now where did I put my anorak?

I deliberately didn't include this season as still ongoing The att for the Sheffield Shield game is shown as 946 in the RL Yearbook.
Ill put my Anorak back in the cupboard

We played a Sheffield Shield game? I’m even more confused now.

Confusion Reigns its just not cricket !!

Usual loyal supporters there. We haven't had many floaters all season besides the amateur club freebies.
1300 there if season tickets counted! Actual less than 1000, as it has been for most of the season against teams with little travelling support

Too right. Only the real "true" supporters of Halifax RLFC will be there on Sunday, and I'm proud to say I'm one of them. And for all the disappointments we've had in the league this season, let's really get behind the lads and make some noise.

Absolutely. Up The Fax!

Have you read any posts on here which suggests we believe we're good?



We all know how bad we are, dont worry about that!

I have read a couple of posts on here where it has been stated Fax should be beating the likes of Swinton, Batley , and Dews, in fact at the start of the season it was stated Leigh would finish within 6 points of Fax in the table.

I don’t think Fax are a bad team though, it’s just teams like Swinton have improved vastly this season, the table doesn’t lie , perhaps Only Rochdale as the weakest team in the Comp are Bottom for the right reasons.

On your day Fax are a difficult team to beat, your displays in the Cup and the game at the Shay against Leigh proved this.I am friendly with one of your Directors I know how much passion he has for Fax.

Glad you pointed that one out, Charlie, otherwise I would never had known

You’re welcome Duzzy ,a wise man once said Man with hole in his pocket always feels Cocky,not always obvious though.Be happy .

When Leigh went belly up up would have been easy to go on their message board and take the mickey but it was bad enough for the fans as it were so not my kind of thing. Charlie on the other hand has loved sticking the boot in this season when its gone tits up at Fax so when Leigh go to the wall again, which they will under Degsy, I won't hesitate this time.

Funniest thing I've read for a while.

And what happened to the stronger squad this season than last and disappointing if we don't finish 2nd?
