I like the Shay. Facilities are good and we usually win there.

That's because recently we have thought every day is Christmas Day and have been giving away presents by the sack full.

We need desperately to start being Scrooge.

I've had a season ticket every year for around 30 years, but I won't be getting one and will probably pick and choose games that I attend if we leave the Shay. I probably go to around half of our away games, but each time I have to juggle things and/or I'm in a mad rush as I have other commitments on Sunday mornings. I can leave home at 14:40 for a game at the Shay and know exactly where I can park as well, but games at Cougar Park would be like an away game in terms of logistics for me getting there.

Might be wrong, often am.
Fax threatened the council with leaving, they accepted and refused to talk further.
Own goal?
Come on directors, silence is not golden.

That's how I see it. As if the council would give a flying one. We've been nothing but a pain in the proverbial of late!

From the highs of the middle 8s to this apparent shambles and make or break time in 12 months!

Think it's time for the club to talk before the rumours get worse

Leaving the Shay isn't good for anyone. Not good for us if we have to play outside Halifax - loss of support

Not good for the council - they lose income

Not good for FCHT - only club at the Shay, they have stump up more for their rent which they wont be able to afford.

I'd be happy to stay on with reduced matchday costs. Just use East Stand.

Make reserved central seat Season tickets a little more expensive than seats near the South and North Stands. Ability to "swap sides" at half time.

Open the South or North v Bradford, Hull KR (?) & maybe Featherstone. Problem solved. Reduced costs, no rent increase required.

I actually expect this to happen, rather than the worst case scenario, ie, Keighley

That makes perfect sense, but they do need to say what they're planning when they start selling season tickets.
