Leigh have played poorly twice and Won, and we threw those games away, i'd hardly consider those positives.

I hate accepting mediocrity. We are Halifax RLFC.

How do you know how they played? You was in the South Stand Bar watching the footy for most of one of those games!!!

Leigh and Featherstone aren't and never have been bigger clubs than Halifax. They may have it over us at the moment but our time will come again. As for attendances when we have played them in finals it showed who had the biggest support. Our attendances at this time reflect the rugby being played by us. Why on earth have we gone back to one man rugby/five drives and a kick in the last two games? Also don't forget we have not won the league once since being relegated from SL.

1. SL fixtures played in each clubs' history.
2. World club challenge fixtures in each clubs' history.
3. Charity shield challenge fixtures in each clubs' history.

I can only be arsed going back 30 years, consider yourself told, i reckon that makes Halifax "bigger" by those measurements.

If you read my post correctly you would see I didn't say Halifax are bigger than Leigh or Fev, indeed I stated that at this point in time both clubs have it over us. But seeing as you asked Fax founded before either Leigh or Fev have been more successful than both, won the cup as many times as both together. Won the League more times than both put together. World record attendance at a RL game, I could go on. All in the past of course but you did ask. Oh and as for the present Fax have never felt the need to Dual reg with their bigger neighbours, of course!
