You've never liked me Office Boy. I know that. But to dis me in this way is despicable on your own part. Where have I mentioned Michael Steele? Then you go on about me putting in more of my own money and time than anyone else during the past 10 years. Thanks for the plaudits, O Boy, but I won't take the praise because I haven't a clue what you're on about!

Are you on summat?

It was in your original post that you edited nearly 48 hours after posting

Take me to your dealer.

To quote your original post... "Michael Steele, for example, has been as much use as a chocolate tea cup.".

I've had the pleasure of meeting Michael a couple of times, albeit fairly briefly, and he has the good of HRLFC running through his blood.

Just because you edit a post, it doesn't mean that you didn't say it in the first place.

The purpose of my edit was to correct a spelling mistake. Anyway, I'm not taking jip from Office Boy whose early involvement at the club with his "buddy" Nigel Wood started the slippery slope to where we are now. The Chuckle Brothers would have done a better job. And (on another note?) they also most likely would have spent the combined Thrum Hall proceeds and the lottery grant on actually "completing" the Shay Stadium rather than leaving it half finished ............... Hmmmmmm, that stand was expensive

Quitting with only 3 months as Finance Director after predicting a small surplus for the season at the supporters meeting has to be a worry.

I ain't got a clue who you are to dislike you, but I obviously dislike what you put about Michael. And if you really believe I had any influence or power to affect anything that happened at Thrum Hall you'll believe anything.

Michael Steele is a gentleman and a Halifax hero as far as im concerned, he deserves every positive plaudit. Who would want to be Chairman of a club with some of the idiots that we have on social media.

I've met Michael Steele on a number of occasions and I have nothing but the highest regard for him. He is Halifax through and through. He has put a great deal of time,effort and more importantly his own money to keep the club going. Being a director of any sports club isn't easy but at least he has had the balls to do it. It's easy to sit on the sideline and criticise but let's respect people for what they have done even if they are not personally liked by everyone.

Well said Faxlad and Pellon Boy.

Top post totally agree the SL clubs OWN the sport and the RFL are powerless to stop them doing just what they want, despite what we all think of the RFL the problem with RL lies well and truly at the door of the some selfish SL club Directors who don't give a toss about the long term future of the game they only care about themselves and their clubs.
The last 2 weeks has shown how bad things have got playing once great clubs back in the day who both play out of town with Oldham at Stalybridge and Swinton who play at Sale RUFC to 500 home fans tops, this at the second level of RL!!!

Well said without people like Michael there would be no club the current state of our club is down to stay away fans and the state of the game at our level, yes we are not a great team at the moment but we are not facing winding up orders well not as far as I know anyway!
