When Leigh went belly up up would have been easy to go on their message board and take the mickey but it was bad enough for the fans as it were so not my kind of thing.

Funniest thing I've read for a while.
And what happened to the stronger squad this season than last and disappointing if we don't finish 2nd?

We hammered the gobblers at 'Shay and got to a semi final without screwing our own players. I'll take that. Charlie?

And BFG did say Leigh wouldn’t get within 6 points of Fax this year.  .

Cmon Pete, a 6 point loss is not a hammering, you did do well in the Cup,which I applaud.
Which players where screwed?Surely not any who have returned.

Well he was right Ian, just not the way round he predicted.
To be honest as well, the state Leigh were in at the time of the prediction you might have agreed with him apart form the fact that you were saying nowt, Charlie had left the building!!!!
Just goes to show how quickly things can turn for many of the teams / clubs / and supporters in this division.
Fax will be back but I can't predict in what form or strength.

The stronger squad hasn’t been stronger and we are disappointed.

I don’t doubt Fax will be back, too good of a Club to fade away,you have a good set of Directors , just need a bit of cash behind them.
I agree about things can change as well , we at are lucky to Derek,at the start of the season our team was nothing like it is now,but the support was still good around 3,000.
You know what I say is only banter,I even have 2 teams in the Fax Fantasy League comp, though I’m doing terrible this year.
I love visits to the Shay and look forward to meeting the fans,as you say Fax will comeback.

I think only Larroyer and Rhys Evans were the only players threatening to take action, but they both found Clubs , we didn’t get any fees so it was a mutual agreement.
I bet Larroyer was paid a signing on fee by Fax, so he wouldn’t be that much out of pocket.
If anything it was some of the players that screwed us, Kurt Baptiste didn’t earn his cash.

There's usually a prediction thread before the season starts and I bet more get it wrong than get it right, either way it's just a bit of fun so why GFB should be singled out as being any different????
Personally I don't do them, it's comes from once seeing the Blackpool Beach fortune teller was closed due to unforeseen circumstances.

As I understand it we paid him a percentage of his wage at Leigh. But it's not just about money is it? It's the way you treat people, and whilst I don't know Mr Beaumont he's not the most popular of blokes is he? Anyroad, enjoy the play-offs but remember, cream allus rises to the top. Especially when it's Yorkshire cream. See you next season.

I have soft spot for Yorkshire,I was born on Yorkshire Day,and love the place, we are staying near Shelby in 2weeks time in a log cabin, and recently had a great week end in Harrogate, visiting York Races,and I’m an Hononary Flat Capper,  I know don’t have much chance in the play offs, for me we ain’t good enough,simple as that, so I will enjoy the games,and see you and Di next season.  .
