'Fax fan in Stockport: The jewel in the ring of Manchester

Re: The Weekend Cometh : Thu Feb 27, 2014 7:23 pm  
Indeed - our crowds went DOWN after winning GF and NRC. I still say the loss of the printed Evening Courier has had a detrimental effect on the club's ability to "get the word out". It's worrying. I'm not a marketing dood so I can't even guess what the best strategy would be.

FAILURE ISN'T ABOUT FALLING DOWN, FAILURE IS STAYING DOWN..........

Re: The Weekend Cometh : Fri Feb 28, 2014 7:29 am  
Me & my lot will be unavailable on sunday due to a family celebration. I can only see a Fax win, Batley have been unimpressive so far & if what i read that Ben Black is out for a month being correct info, that is a severe dent in their creativity.

I can't wait to see this Johnston kid on drier tracks, watching the footage back on Boots n all from last sunday, how slow did the passages of play look until he ran at the defence ? I must say, it didn't appear slow while at the game !

As Rich says we had a side that was known as the "entertainers" of the division unfortunately that was at a time when the planet including Halifax started to get hit by a big recession the effects of which are still being felt now.

Having a winning or entertaining side will help but it doesn't solve the problem of people being skint and having to watch every penny they spend and when they are working all week a small window to spend it in.

Even when they have some recreation money when they have a family and one day to be with them rugby or soccer has taken second place if all the family aren't into the sport.

If you stopped being so keen to slag off maybe you could figure that out and do something positive for your football team as the same applies to them as your BOD have stated.

I think I've mentioned this on here before but just for the record,,,,,,

I can't remember the last time I saw a Halifax Town game, I am a member of the trust, I'm a Fax Flyer agent and a members of gold club or whatever it's called

My first game was at Thrum Hall in the late 60 's I wasn't one of them 40,000 that saw Fax lose at home to Cawoods
Some Fax fans on here need to wind their neck in stop being derogatory to other teams and fans apart from Bradford, FC Halifax have a place in the Town and The Shay
We are not the best team in the league but on our day we can match anyone

A comfortable win for halifax I think. We are still developing and trying to assimilate all of the (many) newcomers. far too early in the season for us!
