This follows up something that FC said at the forum. Looks like a good partnership from what is written here.
I think the fact that Glenn Morrison is there will help, as he clearly has a bond with the Bulls

| Thought you were already twinned with Rochdale. Is that marriage over now or are you still with them as well.

That's pretty much what was said at the Forum, iirc.

They will? Goody, because we certainly can't take any lessons from you. Or maybe you're about 12 and don't remember your club announcing in 2006 that it needed to raise £90,000 otherwise it would go into liquidation? (Your fans and friends stumped up over £50K IIRC - including a modest donation from me ). Or ask your grandad about going into receivership in 1990 with debts of £3/4m?

Aye, you'd know all about that wouldn't you...
[i"Halifax players threatened strike action over unpaid wages in April 1990. The club sold Neil James for £20,000 to pay wages but were still in financial trouble including an unpaid tax bill of £70,000. Halifax went into the hands of receivers, £760,000 in debt, a take-over bid having failed after the players refused to take a pay cut. The club was re-formed and the assets were purchased by the Marsland/Gartland consortium of local businessmen."[/i
[i"In August 2006 Halifax RLFC was on the verge of going bust. The club announced that it needed to raise £90,000 otherwise it would go into liquidation. Rugby league fans nationwide rallied behind 'Fax', and through visits to the ground, during home fixtures, and other fund-raising events, were able to raise £55,000. Former Chairman Howard Posner then came forward and announced that he would loan the club the remaining £35,000 in order to keep Halifax RLFC alive. This ensured that Halifax RLFC would be playing in National League One during 2007."[/i

I am today writing to the Halifax club asking for the return of the £50 that I sent them in 2006 in response to their begging plea to keep your club in business. And that, after your club went bust at took the creditors for £3/4m little more than 20 years ago. Hoiw much would that be in today's money?
I realise now that it must have been some sort of scam, since so many of their "fans" seem to have no recollection of how their own club scrounged, begged and borrowed from fans across the game to stay in business a mere six years ago. They can't ALL have collective amnesia, or have just crawled up from the bottom of the pond?
You and your club are in no position whatsoever to lecture others about financial responsibility, so I suggest you shut it.

| After reading the T&A article, this sounds like an excellent arrangement for both sides.
Good luck to Glenn Morrison too
