Did Reactiv have the funds? No.

Of course. We have long maintained that we dont want private ownership, regardless of who it is. This used to be Fax supporters' opinion too.

| Strange, this became a battle between us and them, on the us side some were against, some were unsure and some were for, me included, on the them side all were against.
Strange, as I say had the debate been opened up to the people of Calderdale and not just the 3500 "supporters" do you think they would have embraced private ownership or a continual drain on the Councils Funds.
Private ownership was a chance to move both teams forward, now we will both play in a deteriorating stadium, an underused stadium, with a council who have no ideas
I say underused, LSV recently had an Elton John concert, Council owned, no funds to Leigh but the receipts will ensure that the ground will be kept up to date.
Our council have no such ideas, but I await  Mr Abbott had.
Very sad.

Everyone has ideas. Its just a case of working with the Council to ensure that they maximise the stadium ensuring long-term security for both our clubs. Unfortunately this would never be the case under private ownership. Blimey, there has been enough concern on here regarding whether TA is still involved with Fax or not and the poor communication coming out of your club yet you still think he is/was the answer for the Shay. Naive at best.

That's fine then Bubba, i will remind you of this when it happens and the outcry on Shay.net is muted. My problem is that i suffer from the affliction of wanting the best for both the Football and Rugby teams.

Read my post, what is the Council doing to maximise the stadium?
Naive at best?
Tell me WHAT IS THE COUNCIL DOING TO MAXIMISE THE STADIUM?
Incidentally I thought it was your club as well?

Private ownership of the Shay would be best for one entity!
Its all irrelevant anyway. The articles on theshay.org/wp/ showed that the Council could never have sold the stadium for what TA was offering and given that he was going to borrow to make the purchase at the pittance he offered, its doubtful he would have had the money to buy it for its rightful value.

I think its obvious to all that the Shay is massively under realising its potential. Thats why I said its a case of working together to maximise the Shay.
No, I havent been to a Fax game since the stupid franchising was brought in. Still wish to see the club do well though.

I think they'd rather the council get a clue about commercialism. Completely clueless about how to run the shay as a revenue generating asset. Bit by bit the Shay will rot as funds aren't available to even maintain current upkeep. Ask Fev fans what state the toilets in the Skircoat stand were like. Still Bubba, out of sight out of mind. No one goes in there so leave it to rot.
Instead of prolonging the agony maybe your dad can start up the SST again and completely f*** things over in double quick time.

Calderfale council can't even flog the prime site under The Percy Shaw two years after it was built and twenty odd years after it was planned. What hope now The Shay?
