| Quote: The Lucky Black Cat "Where have I said I blame Des the Wierdo for Fax losing? The guy is a control freak and thinks he can do what he wants. I and many others do not like him and think his actions are those of a little spoilt brat.'" So what?? How does it affect your life?? How does it affect Halifax fans in general??
The Barrow fans appear delighted with him. He's their clubs chairman and as such affect their club.
I don't understand your angst at someone who has little or no effect on your life.

| Quote: j a c k o "Thought although a nice stadium the set up today was at best terrible. We went to watch the second half of the game before ours and it took 40 mins to be served for a drink.
What a joke of a place. We then tried to get some food for the whole place to be shut down.
It spoilt a good day out but what bad organising. Surely Warrington with a bit better organising could have made a lot more money??
Lets just hope they decide to change the venue for next year.'"
It was a complete joke, I've put a topic on Virtual Terrace regarding this under Halliwell Jones Stadium.
Talk about shooting themselves in the foot, not only was there only 1 kiosk open, with 5 staff trying to serve West stand full of 4000 of West Yorkshire's finest ale drinkers, they committed the cardinal sin of not getting enough beer and pies in, shocking!
That's why I, amongst other Cougars fans, left at halftime. We wanted to get p*ssed and have something to eat.

| Well a great game and well played both teams.
I am astonished you were bothered about the beer running out it was only Carling anyways and at £3 a pint it just confirms our view on this side of the Pennines that you Yorkshire Yorkshire Yorkshire folk know as much about beer as you do rugby.

I love and know my beer, but beggers cant be choosers. Breaks my heart that during a recession businesses still can't get it right. People were wanting to spend money but could not.
the HJ was sh/t.

| Seriously feel for you guys, was a cracking game. For parts of that game, especially in the first half, you battered us. What a different side yous were from when we played yous at craven park. Could have gone any way that game, fortunately for me it went my way. Look forward to next year

| What a crappy set-up the Halliwell is, I was there before 3pm with the intentions of watching Oldam V Keighley but there was very little car-parking available, it took about 15mins to find somewhere not at risk of being clamped or ticketed.
Not that I was boozing, but a couple of lads in my group were and they were rightly pee-d off at the ale running out. I'd intended feeding the kids while at the stadium but the snap ran out, the traffic after the match was tiresome, we left immediately on the final hooter with the intentions of getting a flyer, but not to be.
A poor venue to hold such an event in my opinion, I've got away from the SL final in better time when there's been 60 thousand plus, at least them lot have it organised.
Did anyone notice that group of Fax fans in the right hand corner of the south stand who the coppers wouldn't allow a transfer into the West stand ? All a bit "more than my job's worth" and totally anal.
I was a little taken aback how small the stadium is once inside, it looked a lot larger from the approach to the ground on the outside !
On the plus side, the Cougars fans were entertaining when celebrating on the pitch with their players, the stewards were too slow to catch a standing bus...

Think it might have stopped as it was our game was a different programme to keighleys game in sky's scheduling. I know they ran one after the other but they showed in sky's tv guide as different programmes.

| I recorded both and all the build up to our game was shown on the scheduled div 1 final game. That recording finished just as kick off happened and the actual recording of our game began just as they were ready for kick off.

| It was all one programme on Sky+ to start with - I set this to record, but then Sky must have split it into two separate programmes.
I recorded one of the later repeats (it's a cut-down version), but haven't had the heart to watch it yet...!!
