Top day yesterday it was great to see the Shay so full although I wish all the schools had turned up to fill the Skircoat which was sadly facing the TV cameras but seeing the South & East Stands full looked terrific and having people actually in the North Stand.
The on the pitch stuff went well very professional and the half time dancing well done to all.

Oh and well done Tonga they deserved to win and at least they are genuine Tongans I believe not imports!

Actual crowd was 10,200 plus and it really was great to see the Shay as full as we are allowed currently. Neil Grace and I took over 500 photos, so if you were there, theres a good chance we snapped you see all the photos here http://halifaxrlfc.smugmug.com/Fax-Phot ... &k=kQk62tZ or here http://halifaxrlfc.smugmug.com/Fax-Phot ... &k=FkNbzcw Mike R
