Excellent move by Halifax.

You have got to believe that MC has played a roll in this because he must know how it is going to look to everyone so fair play to him. Hes not the best with the press and our defence has been a shambles but we have played some of the best attacking rugby that i have seen so for me this cant come soon enough. Someone who can help him out with some of the things he has struggled with, someone who can work the press, and also someone who can attract players, good move by the club.

wwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooohhhhhhhhoooooooooooooooooooooooo !!!

get in there fax, Thankyou BOD for listening to the fans who were expressing there dissatisfaction with this years season so far. Brian will be a fantastic addition to the team and if Matt Calland did have anything to do with this maaster stroke then i have to take my hat off to him, it must have been difficult if indeed it was to do with him, swallowing his pride for the good of the club.

Hopefully the players will not start to show some pride and passion, Lets hope Brian & Matt together can inspire this team to some silverware this season, its not too late and we could now start by turning featherstone over after the bulls !!.

Absolutely delighted with this and as much as it was rumoured never for one moment expected it to come off. Well done to everyone concerned and I feel like my disillushionment as been lifted in one fowl swoop!! - Cant wait to see the benfits to the club!! - Now as Linda said earlier lets get some more volunteers to help us with the collection on Sunday and help us hit our £25k target quickly so we can ensure the BOD get the financial help they deserve. I should also have a piece running in the Courier in the next few days with an update of our progress / events so watch this space!! - There is also an update in the programme on Sunday so make sure you buy one!!!!

For those of us that can't make Sunday will the update be published somewhere else other than the programme?

I think I mention further down the paragraph I should have a piece running in the Courier in the next few days in the main body of the paper rather than the Sports pages. I'll let you knwo nmate when the Courier confirm which day they are running the article so you can look out for it!! - We need it to go in ASAP as we are plugging Bloemys event next Wednesday as we would like more numbers for a great event.

It says the progress will be published in the courier too. read it again fella.

So it does.

Jeez Louise. It's true as well.

The lift this has given the place is immeasurable...even the most (understably) miserable members on here have been lifted. Much needed and well timed. Good lad nobby

you know what, you not wrong there, we might even be able to get a atmosphere going now for sunday.

Great appointment.

just copied this from George Rileys twitter page.

"Brian Noble to Halifax deal is not a done deal.Just spoken to Nobby and he's talking about a consultancy role..nothing more"

"If Nobby does go to Halifax then he would be free to leave his role if a Super League job offer came up for him "

Can not believe Widnes have not gone in for him as Betts is crap.

Well i think he is a good coach and Betts wont be good enough for us in Superleague.Hope we get a decent coach as been boring with no news on players or coaches.
