If it is an opportunity to buy shares in the club this may look as though the club is strapped for cash by some observers. I'm not sure either if this offer would bear much fruit seeing as though we're down to only a hardcore of 1,500 fans who are sitting in the middle of a recession.

Whatever it is - let's hope the night ends positively. At a time when RL stands on the edge of a gravelly forked road I don't think many of those 1,500 could stomach more turmoil.

Wash your mouth out Rich!

RL is in rude health, attendances up, no clubs struggling financially, all to play for in SL, TV deal to match comparable sports, the vibrant championship producing clubs able to step up to SL and the World Cup final such a sell out tickets are going on the black market for an eye watering £2!

Plus, we have Wood, Hetherington and the boys running the show, not a gravel path but a yellow brick road!

Quote: faxcar "If you read this weeks rugby league press there is an article involving Halifax which could become an issue, surprisingly it has not been mentioned but it will come out sooner or later the outcome of which will have an impact on the club.
No it wasn't old Geoff and is not a hint at negative stuff or putting out a rumour.
The BOD of Fax are an team of outstanding individuals without whom we would have no club and do not have to be given a chance, their integrity is unquestionable.
Anything announced by the club must be important and it's only reasonable to hope it is good news or really really good news.'"


Something about trying to negotiate contracts but because crowds are down it looks like players will have to take a pay cut and most obviously wont be happy. It will be the same for most clubs in this division as crowds struggle to rise after the restructuring.

So what does this article read in the Express then?

Major investment to be announced for next season could be another stab?

Correct. GFB. In the Leaguer KH was commenting on the situation which included most of the above.
The way the article started "Fax ask stars to take pay cut" and some other "to the point" wording could have been considered negative if taken out of context so I didn't quote it.

The thread starter just asked "what could the surprise be about".

Lets face it we are all guessing.

I just took a wild guess with this being in the press there could have been a comment from the club to balance the scales so to speak that they were working hard to sign up the players who will be coming out of contract and the good news is inspite of difficult times rest assured Fax will remain at the top of their game with a competative side on the field etc etc.

Very unlikely that it has anything to do with this but it had been printed, the head coach was involved and it could be an issue but no doubt the guys at the helm will sort it out in due course.

There's a lot of speculation on this thread. About (probably) 2 separate issues.

1st been the "secret" and the 2nd the article in the paper.

I'm as guilty as any for speculating. But I still don't think if it was anything that could be considered bad news there'd be this big build up.

There's plenty of good things gone on at Halifax in the past couple of years. Lets just hope this announcement is something that will take us on the next step. We always hear about Fev building for the future, and with the possible and likely league restructure after next season some changes will need to be made. Widnes made a big thing of "ticking the box". While we have already done that. It might not be a requirement this time around. But there are other things that will have to be done and put in place if we were to enter a second tier super league in 18 months time

The huge investment in players needed far greater crowds and missing out on the NRC final has compounded the issue when added to no cc payday
As a consequence a cash injection is needed and the opportunity to purchase shares is the best way

How about that for a guess?????

Could it be a new lottery scheme at £2 per week maybe ?

Unlikely. We already have a solid lottery and the gold club on top of that as well. Adding to it would complicate it and cause confusion

Perhaps that's when they think he grass will start growing and we can all go down and see the green shoots of recovery.

Havnt we done this before though and I think if it were that then people would be skeptical of doing it again.

And Behold, a pale horse. And on his back his name was death. The weekend starts on a Monday.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_46669.jpg



Quote: NORTON FAX "Everyone I have spoke to are saying its to do with the new electronic scoreboard.'"


Yes, I think your probably right, a new electronic scoreboard will be such great news, it really will galvanise us supporters and bring us closer to the club, making us feel part of the club. Perhaps they will let us man it on a rota basis.
I understand we are also going to get new toilets in the North Stand, that's great news, perhaps that is the news, what about a new chip van? Is that the news? Now that would excite me.
I might be wrong, I often am, but I think the big news is "we aren't going to get a new electronic scoreboard"

YOU CAN LEARN FROM THE PAST BUT NOT RELIVE IT.YOU CAN HOPE FOR THE FUTURE BUT CAN NEVER BE SURE THERE WILL BE ONE.:

Been there , done that they are languishing in a drawer somewhere , surely they wouldn`t want to do that again? Must be something new they have come up with I would think.
