While I have great respect and gratitude for Karl Harrisons contribution to the club as a player, there is no way that he should ever be considered to coach here again.

I’m confident Grix will be fine coaching a high level player if that ends up being case, I’m also confident that Harrison hasn’t been brought in to replace Grix . I wasn’t following fax when Harrison was coaching, which high level players did he coach out of interest ?

Mmm? ...and I get accused of being negative at times. Do you know summat that's not out there or are you just stirring it? Elland Craft and Tap, Burning Sky NZPA 4.5% Mmm!

Well in and amongst the pointless negative guess work and speculation a couple of facts I do know are.
1. Young Tom Inman is a good player now and will be improved at Fax.
2. When he plays the noise levels will go up in the South stand from those who will be there to get behind him and watch him play, many of them were sat behind me at the York game and were the ones giving the biggest support.
Maybe it would be a better idea to follow there lead and support him instead of linking his signing with the future sacking of Simon Grix.

In the interview with Dave Grayson conducted by seb sternik he was asked about how Simon had done in the two previous seasons, the answer was one of the key drivers in getting the consortium together was basically to give him extra cash outside of the club to push for promotion, on top of that it was said how the board feel they have a brilliant coach ‘ one of the best in the championship’ so I would be very surprised if Karl was brought in covertly to help in his dismissal, how I read it was Karl was brought in as an ambassador for the club . On Grix not coaching a high level player, that is probably more down to budget than anything else .

A couple of more thoughts.
1. That's how I heard it, KH isn't here to coach.
2. Tom Inman to get some game time next season and if it hits the straps I can see him putting pressure on Kyle Wood (whom, all things being equal he will replace for good in the following season) for a either a regular start or as the interchange 9 on the bench.
3. On Simon Grix being sacked, there's always that possibility but it's just as likely if he has another decent season we might be lucky to hold on to him.

In-between the will he stay or will he go the club are announcing 3 new contract extensions today. The first being brandon moore for 2 more years and the second being kevin larroyer for 1 year. It goes without saying i am happy with brandon staying and i think kev did enough last season to get another year at the club just one more to go now.

Think Larroyer had probably his dest season last year, be very surprised though if he was on more money than Gwaze, and of the 2 would have much preferred to keep Titus.

That comes across as quite a bitter leftfield take. Im not sure what you took from that meeting that suggests that the new board are suddenly going to be finding hundreds of thousands of pounds extra that will be needed to take us to genuine promotion contenders. As for Grix, well there won't be any evidence that he can coach higher level players yet will there unless Im missing something. I'm sure Karl has no interest in getting back in to coaching either. Strange take but we will wait and see.

While we knew he was leaving very disappointed to see that Gwaze has signed a 3 year deal with the Eagles. I know we can't sign everyone, and obviously don't know what went on with the contract negotiations at Halifax, but this is a player who got both the crowd and the team going every time he came onto the pitch, and should only get better as he approaches what should be his prime. Really hope we've tied up Matty Gee and Saltonstall.

Gee and salty in the preseason vid.

Maybe Titus priced himself out of Halifax, or hung on too long to decide on an offer and by the time he had decided the funds had been spent elsewhere?

Yes I'm disappointed he's gone - but the rumoured signings are probably better in my opinion

Another young signing from Rochdale , Ben Forster , 2nd rower . I don’t know anything about him so I guess we’ll wait and see. I see the benefit of signing players for the future but hopefully this will be balanced out with some experience in the coming weeks.
