Like Faxtastic said, you can't please everyone. Its actually much worse at Huddersfield, I've got friends who support the clubs and I find it amazing just how much they despise each other.

I just can't understand it myself, I mean surely it would be an advantage for us if Town were succeeding, and vice versa?

We need a Sports Tzar.

Calderdale Council to fund a new role in the community - a Sports Tzar to foster closer ties with all the local sports and fans of those sports. We could have a sports day. A cross code challenge - Footy, RL, Cricket and darts to name but a few. We'll have to have a couple of hours separating the events though - elf 'n safety an' all that.

A sports bra?

My dislike of FC Halifax Town is due to my dislike of Wendy Ball - simples!

Like mentioned neither are official forums for the two respective teams and as such there is probably more vented on here than both clubs would like. Thats just how it is.

Me thinks OP needs to have words with his son if he wants to start building bridges accross the divide.

Defnatley an interesting post by common_sense.

I dont think its that simples.

I dislike football but I dont dislike FC Halifax. I have been to two football games in my life and each one was 0-0. Just couldnt get a grip of kicking a ball around for 90 minutes without any score?? But that said, I would like to see FC Halifax win their league, win the next one etc and get back into the football league, just because they are our Joint tenants and neighbours...(can you be both?)

I agree that those that run things or organise things should work together. Both clubs need each other to co-operate and work towards a common goal.

Since I am not in that position it does not matter to me, my dislike of FC Halifax town comes down to hating pub football and that 95% of their fans are pr!cks...

Amen

Well said Mr B. (Humble pie on my behalf as I have been a little critical in the past!)

I would like to volunteer for the post of inter faction liason officer.

People say I am thick skinned but probably just thick.

Why?

This is a fans forum, where fans of rugby league and Halifax RLFC can discuss those two subjects and their connected topics. The football club seldom come into the topics, and as this is a rugby league forum, that is how I'd expect it. Users of the football forum have registered on this forum and are allowed to post as long as they obey the rules, unlike other message boards. The council gets a pasting at times; so what? They are an elected body, and their voters have the right to criticise them. Get over it.
