So we werent ready in 2009, and now same for 2012 and so 2015 is when we should go for it, guys guys we have just done back to back grand finals and a win in the last one, if you ask me we have to go for it this time if we can, lets face it, this season coming should see our crowds increase to what they potentially can reach in this division, so whats to lose. No time like the present if you ask me.

Better stadium then almost half the super league teams, decent team foundation to build on, succesful period under our belts, only thing lacking is crowds but if we go up then they will increase, how much by, who knows, we wont know unless we try, just go for it.

I agree. I don't get this 'we're not ready' malarky, ok so we don't have a Youth set-up but other than that what else are we supposed to do? The crowds aren't going to improve (much - probably to a legit 2,500 this year, but back down after 2011) if we're told in March we're here for another 4 years. Sponosorship will be there or there abouts the same. Will we end up with another Grand Final even?

If we're told in March we're getting promoted crowds will increase, so will sponsorship and some quality players will want to sign knowing we'll be in SL. We then have at least 3 years in Super League. I'd rather win 8 games out of 27 in Super League for the 1st year and build than still be here in this division any day of the week.

I want us to be in Super League more than anything but I think we have to be realistic I cant see any way they will let us in I really think that no youth set up will really go against us I hope I am badly wrong.

Come on. The average debate in Halifax is about the Jeremy Kyle show.

We would rather debate it rather than go on it. It is filmed in Halton isnt it?

I must say the type of people you see on it are the type of people you see at the Halton stadium giving you abuse

No, Granada Studio Manchester.

A central location for the required sheep fancying country bumpkins of yorkshire, the petty criminals of the north west, the toothless cave dwellers of scotland and the evil chav monsters of the south to travel to.

Not as good as Widnesians who go on Big Brother eh?

"Come to Widnes, it's really great and clean"

Got to go for it as in 3 years time who's to say we'd tick the onfield box or rfl think of another box we can't tick. Least we've done that this time. Strike whilst irons hot.

Next time round will be harder as there will be more foreign bidders, poss cumbrian club, leigh, fev etc. This time we're second favs probably, likely that won't be the case for 2015.

Then again, in 2015 cas, wakey, salford etc will churn out the same CAD drawings of their new stadium to get another extension....

I can only see breasts in that picture.



Nothing else.
