Really????

can i have some of what u are on

Seeing as Sean was with the players.

i suppose one decision was bringing in a respected coaching consultant who has helped raised fitness and the attitude about work rates in defence? Can't see that as an action of a club giving up, didn't this bring a large amount of positive media exposure?

Personally, to see carney slam our application as "no chance" on live TV with no response from any of the other TV pundits showed how difficult it is to progress to SL without a multi-miilionaire backer.

I would like to say whatever happens that I am so proud of the fantastic effort by everyone at the club to get us to the position we are in and to tick all the boxes asked of us is is fantastic everyone involved in running the club and the supporters trust I salute you . However it seems that sadly ticking all the boxes and doing everything you can to get into the super League including winning the Championship last season will not be enough and that certificate we have is not worth the paper it is written on. The RFL are a set of baffons with their own agenda and sadly I don't think that agenda includes Halifax RLFC and to make things worst Wakefield (if it is them that come down) will be given every advantage possible to get back up in 3 years time I will put my life on it that they will have a full time playing squad next season. They will be a lot of sad people from around the Rugby League community when as we expect Halifax are not promoted as lots of fans from Super League have said how much they want Halifax back up. The whole system is a farce and I will feel robbed by a set of conmen come 11am tomorrow unless a miracle happens. So to the Halifax RLFC BOD I applaud you on such a amazing effort To Richard Lewis, Nigel Wood and the RFL you disgust me you big, steaming pile of lieing Monkey Crap

I don't think that was to do with SL bid, I think that was about survival this year, Matt was clearly struggleing with the concept of tackling. Brian came in and it changed immediately, Sunday, no coaching staff, no tackles.

It's sad to see Matt go as watching fax these 3 years have been brilliant. However we must stop teams scoring first and foremost and Brian got em doing it. Now nobody seems to know what is going on except the opening thread suggests the club have given up hope.

It was only last week when the club told everyone be on best behaviour as SL are watching and don't want dampeners on our bid.

Who is lying ?.

Come season end I may have a year off putting credits in this merry go round.

But probably not, how would I cope without the adrenaline rush that following fax gives.

What I find interesting about the 'independent' selection panel that will decide on the franchises is that Nigel Wood and Richard Lewis are on it. Hardly an independent selection panel is it?

They just make the rules as they go along just to suit them. Does anyone know if the announcement will be on any radio stations so I can listen to what cack comes out of Richard Lewis's mouth?

Radio Leeds are supposed to be doing some coverage but it will only be rhino and bullers are in, Cas have scrapped in and BOO HOO Wakey are down.Fax will get a mention that we ain't in and then the rest of the time will be about how good the other applications were.SL don't want us and Radio Leeds treat anything that happens in Halifax as an after thought.

wont sky sports news be showing it as they did when said widnes got in

Its a shame somebody from the club doesnt come out with a monumental slating of the rfl in the press to try get us some publicity/support

I know the club cannot sue the RFL. But there's nothing to stop a group of fans doing it. Surely some no win no fee ambulance chaser would be up for that!
At the very least you can put them on the stand and try to explain the corrupt decisions!

If Mike Riley's said that in the paper, I think it just shows he's as despondant and gutted as the rest of us. We've done everything that's been asked but instead we'll be dangled a promise of "maybe next time" by the fat controller and his cohorts. Don't believe super league is the promised land it's made out to be, but it's pretty obvious we are moving towards an nrl-system of feeder clubs (with dual-reg players especially - this is a joke) and staying in the championship is just not sustainable in the long term. Well done to the club for giving it your best shot - just a shame it has always been a rigged game from the outset.

RL doesn't seem to be in it's greatest state at the moment. In 1895 we broke away from Union to form what is now known as Rugby League. Maybe now it's time to break away again with Rugby League Version 1.2 BETA.

The Matt slapping Danny thing is priceless. People come up with some right shee-iiiite (as Liam Gallagher would put it) sometimes. Good for a laugh, not much else.
