| Just reading the article from Laurence Turner in the #BLUEWORLDORDER It's great that we have a programme and to be able to download it but....his comments regarding the dual registration with Huddersfield, Our wonderful new arrangements with Huddersfield Giants! FFS! Talk about turkeys voting for Christmas. With leadership like that we are only going one way. I despair, I can hear 'em laughing from Leeds Road from here. Get a grip Fax before it's too late!

| We are a feeder club.
Why we didn't just stay at Thrum Hall and tell Sky to off. We got sold a vision and was naïve enough to take it.

| A message from the chairmen is quickly ridiculed by a message that blames DR for our predicament even though in each of the two games played just one DR player has featured, both quite strongly and where we would have been weaker without them but somehow this would make us stronger and another that says the answer was to stay at Thrum Hall which was vacated decades ago.

| Faxcar you are spot on.
The club is run by directors who love it with not as much money as Dezza at Leigh or The Fev and York chairmen.
So all you knockers buy some land build a stadium and plough money in and get the superstars you want. When you say lack of ambition...that needs money
If you cant do that stop moaning. We are where we are. Support the club as is.

Ambition does not rely on money.

| Ah well lets all not bother then and stay at home, just buy a program and slag our own club off.
Our lack of support will more than match their alleged lack of ambition and will really help, not.

| Quote: Hudd-Shay "As above 'Our Wonderful new arrangements with Huddersfield Giants'.'"
I've read the programme and can't find the quote you've noted here?
What it does say is "What would we have done without our new dual registration arrangements with Huddersfield and the ever-present Oliver Roberts who shone throughout all 80 gruelling minutes and who, in the nick of time from a superb Scott Murrell pass, crashed over to seal the victory for us in the dying seconds of the game. A well-deserved Man of the Match performance in my opinion."
He just questioned what would have happened in the Sheffield game without Roberts playing for us, given he scored the winning try at the death.
Without DR, we'd probably be 0 from 2 now.

| The quote is from the 1st programme .D/R may be boring but it is like a festering sore that wont go away its" a rock & a hard place " question Do you stick with your deeply held principles or like me grit your teeth very reluctantly go with it knowing that every penny is vital ?
The crunch will come in 2021 with the new TV deal when potentially we will have no funding.
Look at the recent announcement that the R/U Championship are having there funding cut by 50% next season "Ring Fencing" by the back door quote from the Bedford Chairman.
The Sport I grew up with is becoming unrecognizable & I really fear for the future of clubs like HX

That's just exactly how it is and when everyone else is playing a different game from what we knew and loved you either go with them or be cut adrift.

I was quoting from the Sheffield programme. The point I am making is that the way the present board are taking us makes it less and less likely that we'll ever become self sustainable again. Feeder clubs are coming, some might say they are here already, and as bentleyman says the game is becoming unrecognisable from the one we once had. If you are happy with that fair enough. Personally I would break away from SL, take the Challenge Cup with us and let the 'elite' play with theirselves 5 or 6 times a season.

| Everyone understands the DR situation but how can anyone say the board is taking us in the wrong direction, it's not of their making or their direction at all.
It's the direction that the game as of 2020 and moving on and all the other clubs are going in and it's not possible to remain competitive as a stand alone club, it's simply not the 1960's, 70's, 80's or any other by gone era and it never will be.
How can anyone, simply because they hate DR resort to criticism at every possible opportunity and say the club lacks leadership and ambition whilst at the same time stop supporting the club when if everyone followed that example of leadership and ambition the club would fold and go out of existence in a matter of a few short weeks.
It's a very sad day when hatred of something (DR) overrules the love of something (club) IMHO.
