You've got to have a dream, if you don't have a dream, how ya gonna have a dream come true?
Are you claiming all you are entitled to? www.debtadvicenetwork.org then go to "Self Help" then "Benefits & Entitlements".:3664.gif |

Yup thats why Cullen has come out and stated that Widnes supporters should stop thinking that the club has a SL set up when it doesnt.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

He is right though , we are all lagging behind Widnes at the moment
Having said that they like us all still have to ' Qualify ' to submit an application , as I doubt Leigh making the GF we will ' Qualify ' this season by winning the NRC

Wheres the evidence of this other than the waffle from the club? They have come out to say that they arent full time now after SOC stated he would fund them full time until the next SL licences - other than the fan base (which has remained impressive but hasnt improved) what other evidence is there that they are that far ahead?

| Quote: Yob "Malcolm, if you are going to get personal, I can give as good as I get!
I'd say that you put in a lot of time and effort, but you're past your Sell By date and cause far too many problems, such as taking delivery and paying many thousands of pounds for shirts 3/4 of the way into the season, when the problem in them being delivered so late was down to the supplier.
Also, such as negotiating to take over sponsors sponsorships and seeking the Trust members permissions to do so, then going ahead without their approval, vus depriving the club of potential sponsorship monies/donations!
In my opinion a paid Part Time employee would do a better job, so long as the person was qualified in the area they are working. With the best will in the world, somebody is going to do a better job if their income depended on it, than somebody who can come and go whenever they want and with no financial motivation.
A volunteer can be very valuable, but have them doing the jobs they can handle.
As for me putting money in to replace you, that isn't going to happen! That's up to the board to build it into the budget!'"

| Quote: SID SCOOP "Last Saturday I was asked by Illingworth RLFC if I could help out with their junior presentation night. They wanted a Halifax player to present the trophies and big Frank Watene gave up his Saturday evening at just a few hours notice and travelled over from his Castleford home to present the awards. The youngsters were thrilled to bits and all think Halifax are great. This is just an example of some of the positive things they do in the community.
Ben Black is kindly giving up his Saturday evening to present the trophies at Halifax Irish's presentation night tomorrow. He was only asked yesterday as well.'"
That really is fantastic, that is some of the most powerful advertising you can get in a way. With such a cult hero as Watene, the kids do love him, they will want to see him play and will drag the parents along for the ride and hopefully after a great display and win against Leigh on Sunday, return. |

While you are correct in what you say if you look at it you are still preaching to the ' converted ' if you have a player attending a presentation at a RL club
Yes continue doing it , get letters and make contacts with as many as you can in the area as you are competing with the Bulls,Leeds and Huddersfield for this type of ' marketing
But the point still remains is you need to somehow find a way to actively promote your club to the people who have never had / dont have any interest in RL whatsoever
The article by Matt Calland in the paper is good but he also is reffering to ' the fans rather than the people of the town /borough , he is asking for existing fans to contribute more via lottery instead of targeting new fans |

Well I know of junior clubs in the Halifax district who have recently had Bradford and/or Leeds players at their presentation evening's, that's not right is it ?

A lot of these kids aren't yet converted as many turn up for training at local amateur clubs in Rhino's/Bulls/Saints/Giants shirts.
The more we can get the players into the junior set ups the better. The main problem we have is that with the players being mainly part time living out of the area, it turns out to be a very long day for them if they then have to get up for work the next morning.
I think the guys we have who are getting into the clubs are doing a great job. It's a million miles beyond recent years. |

| Quote: vikings 4 ever "For one, the RFL have apparantly taken a very dim view of Halifax ditching their academy. ![]()
We decided to ditch our academy round about the same time as your club went bust. Which do you think will stick most in the minds of the RFL?
Our academy previously dominated their league - winning the GF two years on the trot. Plans are in place to bring this youth set up back in plenty of time. You have a bunch of prima dona's and a very poor coach. It's you who should be worried. Half way through and you've already lost six matches. That my son is appalling. Have you seen your run in? Very tough. You'll be lucky to get a place in the play offs. As for Super League - we may get the knock back and certainly if we haven't improved our attendances or our financial backing i wouldn't want to go up anyway. I won't be losing any sleep if the worst happens - our club will continue on but if you lot get another snub, you won't see SOC for dust.
