Re: Latest on the sale of The Shay : Wed Nov 06, 2013 5:40 pm
How thick are the Luddites like Geoff. The Shay is not a historical and is not even 100 years old as a sports stadium! The shay is a millstone for the council and the Bubba Clown Club have just helped reduce its value. Well done! There is scope for profit at The Shay but not under a Council that is in a mess finacially and MUST make cuts. Please explain why a Council should make cuts to Schools, Social Services etc but keep throwing away hundreds of thousands of pounds on a Stadium that is used by less than 3% of the local population regularly? "The people of Halifax might not have massive interest in their clubs, but I'm sure they'd miss them both if thy were gone."
Why where are both clubs going? Even if TA took over, you think both clubs will just disappear? Another panic scenario dreamt up by the Luddites who follow FC Pubteam. Its clear the Council and TA need to make certain agreements that are legally binding on any sale. But all this doom and gloom from the luddites is why Halifax is a backwater town.
