| Harrison and his coaching staff have took the club as for as they can. I don't think we will improve much with new players on board.
Time for the club to have some balls and forget sentiment and mutually agree a release. The fans I speak to are more apathetic as the season goes on. Nobody was actually that bothered about today's result. They should be.

| Well I have to agree that it was a really poor performance today, our club seams to have hit he self destruct button. The BOD need to take a real look at the issues and sort them out fast. Supporters are turning away in droves and who can blame them when the on field performance is so poor.
Even playing boring rugby we can't get the basics right, too many errors, poor completion rate, giving away too many penalties.
Can KH turn it around? I am not sure.

I have never heard so much discontent as today.
Should Karl be making an honest statement as to what is wrong and how he intends to correct it.

| Harrison was / is one of my all time Fax favourites but his coaching record leaves a lot to be desired anywhere he's been. His teams have always played poor rugby. Sentiment aside we need fresh ideas and impetus quickly, rumours of inner back biting and player squabbles seem feasible although a team on its ar$e is going to point the finger.....
I'm sick of watching this utter rubbish and a team that resembles the keystone cops. Harrison please do the right thing and make way for someone who can take us forward as unfortunately you are killing us....

Wake me up when we get to the GF.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

You seem a little obsessed in regard to the ex-Batley players in your squad. I suppose they're entirely to blame for every poor result you have.

| To be honest it isn't just the ex Batley players (in fact there are a few good ones amongst them) but the style of rugby we play via KH is very similar to what they used to play and its a tad boring and won't win us anything! Also sometimes it's not always healthy having a large contingent of ex players in the same dressing room re team spirit/ alleged cliques etc.
I am sure next week that we shall see which Batley players are on it!!!!!!

| So there I were watching us hammer Donny, I fall asleep for what must have only been 20 minutes only to find out we had drawn.
We look a team devoid of any confidence where any flair players we do have dont know whether they are coming or going because they are playing one week then dropped the next. Next week we will see again chops and changes to players that, admitedly arnt playing that great but certainly arnt the worst culprits, when we see Tyrer back in for Sheriffe, Patto back in for Fieldhouse and whatever other changes to the team avoiding where the actual problems are at half back and hooker.
We need a coach similar to Powell or Aston who actually manages to get the best out of their players and where you see improvement in their games. Anyone of our players stand out as getting better this year?

| We did play a dour style of Rugby with those players, but I suspect, as you are finding out, it's more to do with someone else who was at our club and is now at yours.

| at the start of the season I said I don't mind reserved rugby if it gets results against the top teams or at least makes us competitive. Well its clear the style we play cant compete with the top teams or teams around us and now it seems we struggle against so called lower opposition. This was very much like Batley used to be, a 4/5th placed team who just could never make the step up to compete with the bigger teams. Well we have Batleys ex coach and a few of their players so should be no surprise we are now the "new" old Batley.
Comments that Karl made after the Fev at home game about it not mattering now infuriate me, it does, look at the crowds, and all this has a knock on affect for next season, budget etc. You don't see other top teams saying ah never mind it doesn't matter. We have gone forwards off the pitch but on it backwards just as the door to super league maybe opened a bit more.
Whats happened to the likes of Fieldhouse, Worrincy etc, exciting players who are a shadow of their former selves, all down to our style and coaching. I question the fitness of a few of our players who need to decide if its a hobby or a professional sport they play. You should want to be the best you can be no matter what level you play at, not just do the bare minimum. Fact is for a club the size of Halifax and with the resources we have we are massively under performing on the pitch.

| All the hard work of the last few years to take us forward on the pitch undone in less than 2 seasons by Harrison.
The next coach coming in purely needed to tweak a few things to take us forward and use the time to build up our crowds. Instead we look a very poor and unfit side and have gone backwards on the pitch and fans are turning their backs on the team ... Fans are currently leaving in droves and I'm struggling to come up with excuses to keep watching this garbage myself. Not even blind loyalty is cutting it...
Harrison is to blame entirely, his tactics and brand of rugby are making this side one of the worst I've watched in years.

| I question the player recruitment also, why we let players like Miles Greenwood go I'll never know.

| Miles was "retiring" wasn't he following his injuries, had a small period out of the game then reappeared at Oldham IIRC
