Considering the amount of rain we've had and taking into consideration our stadium partners, probably the common sense decision. No point going down that same road again.

I'm sure if it was a league game a call would have been made tomorrow morning.

At least no one will get injured as well

P.s what another great win for Town. Who says managers only have so much impact....we know better. Both teams seem to have guys who know what they're about.

Aye it needs a better drainage system, same as the Calder Valley, it's been persistent for weeks, even Noah said it'd been a tough call to play at the moment.

Why aren't they offering to play it at theirs, if they feel so strongly about it?

Totally agree if giants feel that strong why not switch it doubt would make difference on crowd.
If you still want some rugby action get down and watch the cougars at home to Oldham £10 admission fee

A lot of reasoned debate on here about the merits of playing the game. A look on the Town forum and I wonder if they have 2 brain cells to rub together between them.

They're all coming out of the woodwork now they've won a few games, Heard nothing in months

They are football supporters, enough said.

Nice afternoon for a rugby martch

Pitch would have passed an inspection.

I think Fax should go out of their way to arrange another home friendly even if its just to have a look at some of the under players.

Im baffled by the people criticising the Giants statement, given that our statement shows plenty frustration at the situation too. If anything it seemed to me like the Giants were supporting Faxs position againgst the council. www.halifaxrlfc.co.uk/news/artic ... -postponed

What Tim Swift has said on Twitter has suggested that the groundsman had some say in the game been called off and I think he should have a say in debating the condition of the pitch. What we have though is a vested interest with a groundsman who is well known to be a big town fan. Maybe it is time to bring in a neutral where an impartial decision can be made.

sounds like the RFL when appointing referees for internationals

I don't know what the state of the pitch was like this morning but considering the rainfall we've had over the last few months and the fact that it was a friendly......one for the credit bank and I'm sure that a more hard headed approach would be taken if it were a league match.

Now GFB makes an important point here, if we're dealing with a groundsman who's got a big fat chip on his shoulder he needs to be taken out of the equation.
