I don't understand the council. The most unfathomable group of elected misfits I've ever come across. They're not interested in what is good for the people who live in their town. Like I said before, Castleford's jungle should have been condemned a decade ago - the whole set up is a health and safety avoidance scheme, with the complete support of their council who are perhaps lenient and less "jobsworthy" than our bunch of puddings.

Wouldn't surprise me if they changed their minds yet again. Clueless clowns.

If Calderdale Council organised the Millenium Magic it would have to be spread over a week not a weekend

And laying down and accepting crass stupidity and bewildering decision making is?

STUPID!

'HEALTH AND SAFTEY' MY @RSE!

HOW CAN 3 SETS OF SUPPORTERS WATCHING 2 GAMES OF RUGBY SPREAD OVER 5 HOURS BE A H&S HAZZARD?!

THERE WOULD ONLY BE 2500 IF WE WERE LUCKY!

ITS A MASSIVELY SCALED DOWN VERSION OF GRAND FINAL DAY AT WARRINGTON!

I KNOW OF AT LEAST 3 PEOPLE FROM MY WORK WHO WERE ALL GOING DOWN FOR THE DOUBLE HEADER THAT NEVER ATTEND THE SHAY, THAT WILL NOT BOTHER NOW!

A JOKE.....WHOEVER MADE THIS DECISION NEEDS TO HAVE A QUIET WORD WITH THEMSELVES AND THEN APPLY FOR A JOB AT REDHALL....THEY'D FIT IN THERE!

I CAN ONLY SEE THE REASON THAT THE COMMENTS POSTED ON THE FAX WEBSITE TO BE TO TRY AND GET THEM TO SEE SENCE AND CHANGE THEIR MINDS AGAIN......DOUBT IT THOUGH.

HOW MANY HUNDRED WIDNES FANS WILL NT COME ACROSS NOW? ANSWER PROBLABLY HALF THEIR USUAL FOLLOWING AT LEAST!

HOW MANY FAX WILL BE PUT OFF BECAUSE OF A LATER KO TIME?

QUITE AFEW I SHOULD THINK

HOW MANY NEUTRALS WILL NOW NT ATTEND THAT WOULD HAVE DONE FOR A FAMILY DAY OUT DOUBLE HEADER? LOADS!

HOW MUCH MONEY WILL THE GROUND MISS OUT ON DUE TO LOSS OF BEER/FOOD SALES! LOADS.

IT DOESNT MAKE SENCE.....IDIOTS I TELL YA ! IDIOTS!

Only in Halifax. How come you can have 4 games the same day in Cardiff yet in Halifax the Council force having 2 games to be a pain. Calderdale Council and the Councillors have ruined the towns shopping area and Museums and is now looking to make life hard for the various sporting clubs in the area. No wonder Halifax/Calderdale has a poor reputation when such idiots are in control

Spot on.

Council ' facilities ' = jobs for idiots , we suggested the same for Leigh v Hull Dockers and Leigh Miners v Barra

Unfortunatley , or fortunately it never got to the ' can the stadium cope stage

We like your good selves are boll axed ime afraid

What about the Championship Finals day, they have 3 games and it works out fine.
Fax are putting some strong words out and may I just say that I am fully behind them, all areas need to work together on this.
Well done to Fax and Siddal and the opposition for trying to get what looked to be an exciting days rugby on.

Hey this one is down to some jumped up Council Officer and his seniors who do not have the bottle to stamp on them and tell them to use their 'common sense'.
Calderdale Council is full of these types yet the senior managers are too 'risk averse' to stand up to them.

It is as you say typical Calderdale Council, thing is the more you have a pop at them the more they dig in and make your life hell. remember Thrum Hall and all that crowd restriction rubbish and how they made life so hard? You know what that was all down to one man (who I believe has left now but sounds like he has left his mark on his understudy)

What I cannot undersatnd is why the two stupid kick off times???

We should ask for the decision makers name and then we can shame them, come on Courier you did it to the car parking lady the other day, why not get this guys name lets 'have him'?

Not all Councillors. There are some trying to get the times changed to make it more supporter friendly.

Regardless Siddal should be paying full commercial cost for using the stadium. One of the Siddal chaps argument in the Courier was something along the lines of "How can the Council turn us down when we are in a recession, bla, bla, bla". In other words "they should let us play there and we will happily pay".

I think the press release by Fax is simply embarassing.



If this is the type of support? We are only a year into an East Stand which Calderdale Council decide to allocate funds for to complete when I would guess the majority of the Borough would have probably opposed it. Yet the club are now happy to publicly question the Council's committment?

What is it about Fax and shameful behaviour?

Health and Safety is of paramount importance and must come first

stop being so single minded everyone
