Totally devalues the competition and the big day out at the final, poor move.

I dont really care. Having a final at the Shay would be great for the town.

Plus what has Blackpool got that Halifax hasnt? They have Blackpool Tower, we have Wainhouse Tower. They have the promenade, we have Albert Promenade. They have the Irish Sea, we have the Calder. They have the Pleasure Beach, we have Shibden Boating Lake. They have the Tower Ballroom, we have the Acca!

They have sticky carpets, we have Hebden Bridge.

Re: The Shay - North Stand Improvements : Thu Feb 07, 2013 10:19 pm  

They have Blackpool Rock, we have Dobsons!

Not sure if the other clubs would be happy with the situation when we get to the final, one team playing at home.

Looking beyond the fact I am Fax through and through both Club and the Town it seems a bit daft to me and sort of lessons the enjoyment factor.

Any final should include some form of day or weekend out and away from the norm.

Blackpool with the above in mind ticked the boxes so why change??

Bulls will probably have a match or Rick Astley will be making another appearence.

Oh, and since when has Odslum ever been a day out.
