as far as i'm aware TO have made a bid for SL in 2012 but it's more in hope than expectation like any other club (without the exception of Widnes ) - they are currently sorting out thier stadium redevelopment into a 12000 capacity
which other bits don't you understand ?

Obviously TO don't understand as they haven't won the right to apply for SL this time around, they haven't reached ANY of the criteria required!! So why is it a token gesture from TO, said in myopinion like TO are doing us all a favour by applying?

Win the right to apply and nobody will have an issue with TO but we all know our sports beloved governing body will change rules, targets and anything else to ensure the game is taken further and further away from the heartlands and the origins of the sport.

?

Listen i'm not defending TO - i'm just giving you the facts as I undertand them by talking to the players, ex-players,officials & reading the local press & website etc
I believe (as a neutral) that TO should earn the right to their SL place like every other team - but the RFL,whether you like it or not seem hell-bent on 'expanding' the game so maybe special dispensation will be made for them.
If you believe RL should remain within the confines of the 'RL heartlands' then that's your opinion - the powers that be obviously feel differently.

Did you come over to Halifax for the TO game? as our club chairman didn't travel to Toulouse.

if your chairman is Mr Steele,then that's the person I spoke to because I was sure it was him and asked before speaking with him - he even signed my 'Game On' on the TO v Halifax page - this was at Toulouse just after the half-time break
if you send me your email address by pm I will scan his signature !

Mr Steele is the Chairman, but he wasn't on the trip this year.

sorry lads,you're right of course it wasn't Mr Steele it was a Mr Powell ! does this make sense now ?

apologies again

sanjunien - Billy Liar. Off you pop, stop trying to wind folk up, you'll only get found out!

mal been promoted.

go on,explain yourself ! - what's the big problem ? I've admitted I made a mistake,what do you want from me ?

Someone representing Fax spoke with me at TO at the last game - that's fact,not lies! thers' nothing sinister in that ! he seemed a really nice guy who said what he thought,why does that make me a liar ???

whoever this person was (sounds like Malcolm Powell chairman from the supporters trust who I mistook for the chairman of the club (I found a photo of him on you tube ) was not very confident of Faxs' credentials for SL and was envious of TOs' facilities & potential ! that's all,why does that make me a liar ? where's your problem ?

I look forward to seeing him and the rest of you loyal fans again at TO in 2011

Amazed how it went from mr steele to mr powell when you realised your folly! How was that corner you were backed into?

Off you pop

What's your problem exactly?

Maybe this guy made a mistake?

I heard Mr Powell saying the same stuff in Toulouse so maybe, just maybe..... it's true!!!!!!!!!!

Take no notice of some on here. You obviously just made a mistake of the persons name, doesnt make you a bad person, nor should it disuade you from coming onto our message board. You are more than welcome.

That said, I dont think anyone on here really rates our chances of a Superleague lilcence this time around. But we should make the application firstly to show the RFL that we are serious about being back at the top and secondly because the outcome of the application, when refused, gives pointers where the club should concentrate for the next three years. (that is of course until they change the application rules in 2013)

what's the problem with admitting when you are wrong ? try to grow up a bit mate or get that chip off your shoulder - fortunately most of the other Fax fans i've met over the years have been decent folk - lighten up mate !
