Unlucky today, was really hoping for an away draw against Fax in the next round!

Hope to see you back in Super League soon.

In what other sport and indeed at what other club would this statement be made on a fans forum by a Director of the club?

CLUB is the operative word here, Board, team, coaching, backroom and admin staff plus fans all in this together

I write this with tears in my eyes, not because we lost but from sheer pride of being part of the blue and white revolution. We may not be Super League but we have so much more than that including qualities that some SL can only dream of

The last thing needed are apologies.

Now let's win the league,NR cup and GF and really give the RL world something to consider

.....and finally TELL EVERYONE TO FILL THE SHAY NEXT SUNDAY

Mike, from all at Fax, nobody has to apologize for tonights showing, I think a huge well done is in order to all involved.

The fans ,the team, and everyone involved should all say a big well done to each other. Things are looking so good at the moment and are part of something big that is about to happen for Halifax. Onwards and Upwards.

Thanks to all in Blue and White for a night to remember.

Err just to remind everyone we lost a game we should've won, we've been dumped out of the Cup.

Now the players have to focus on sunday. What they must not do is feel satisfied with a loss against ANYBODY. They need to analyse what went wrong, and put it right.

That said, it was absolutely brilliant

I must admit I was one of the Cas fans who was ignoring the quiet confidence that was growing between Fax fans before the game...having been at the game I thought your guys were absolutely outstanding and did in fact probably deserve to win. Although our own ball-retention was poor, I feel Fax's quality really put on a show, and as someone said your support was fantastic. How the BBC didn't go for this rather than Saints again I will never know...all the best for the rest of the season.
p.s..support Cas in the cup?
