We've got the second best defence in the league. Numbers not your forte obviously lad.

Our problem - we are poor in attack. Lacking cohesion and confidence. The lads look as though they have only just met each other. The club has a serious lack of useable facilities and (as you lot know only too well) the finances are drying up as the main benefactor is currently looking to exit the club.

Some say this couldn't have come at a worse time but I rather this happened now BEFORE the club started fannying around trying to get into SL. I am told the club is relatively debt free and the current (ageing) directors are looking to exit also.

Lean times ahead. To be honest - I don't mind a struggle, what I can't abide is when my club starts bringing out the begging buckets or worse still, goes into Admin (once in 1990). If that ever did happen again I'd be done with RL.

It's a tough tough task running a club. There is massive competition on leisure time and getting fans down to the Shay is proving difficult. Despite previously winning the GF & NRC we never beat a 2,200 average. That's poor.

Can't do any harm taking a leaf out of Leigh's book. Roll our sleeves up and start the hard work. The club need to find some dedicated folk to take this task on. Not easy.

ok chump wait and see the full back you get from the one you are expecting

hmmmm... now let me think...... Challenge Cup ???

Your fellow supporters must cringe when reading your posts

Rich. Why don't you jump on the eleven thirtysomeyhing from Stockport to Wrexham with me on Sunday and come on the lash with the Leythers. You would be welcome.

Anyway I have just seen a photo of Carl Harrison holding up a shirt. Has he got a new job already?

Burtons? They must be desperate

zzzzzzzzzz

thats a good one reading some of your posts on here....takes cringe to a whole new level

You heard wrong. "From what I heard" all new signings have been informed and all of them will still be at Fax next season. In fact I would go so far to say im quite excited about been a Fax fan again.

Aye, go on then. Can I sit on Charlie's knee?

Well as a leyther, but also a RL fan i want to see a strong halifax club. There fans are passionate and like us love their club.

You were saying Francis

Batley have a good squad and a top coach but have not really put it together this year.

They were always beating Donny for my money today it was a cup final and biggest game in clubs history as relegation would have been a disaster for them.

As it happens they made the eight and get a chance to surprise a few more.

Sheffield looking like they are hitting there usual end of season form too, an exciting play off series in prospect!!!

Well I can't be right everytime.
