So you chose to post this on the back of one text from someone you know? Well done.

Will Halifax RLFC be putting in an attendance of over 10,000 anytime soon? Don't get me wrong, it was great to see The Shay full. It's just that the above makes it sound like yesterday was in some way Halifax RLFC's achievement.

Yes that was my point, and you quantify it, re-read my post. It wasn't Halifax who were playing the game. Give yourself a chance & try to process what you read before responding you dummy.

Shows how thick some of them are calling us squatters. We all know that we are the longest serving tenants at the Shay.

Yes the council were involved with yesterday but Halifax RLFC had huge involvement since the beginning too. That is getting massively missed. Especially reading the tweets and comments for town fans.

Some folk have no bloody clue. The club have helped loads in bringing yesterday together - loads went on behind the scenes and yes Tony had a lot of involvement. It has taken near 2 and half years worth of hard work to say the least.

Errrrm - no sorry your poorly constructed and grammatically challenged post appears to end with a challenge to the football club to get a 10,000 crowd for some bizzare reason.

If your challenge was for a neutral game then it was an utterly pointless thing to say.

Still, don't cry about it. We know how upset you already are.

Yes indeed it was a challenge to the muppets like you & your mates, like i said it was a world cup fixture. Footy club hosted many of those ?
I'm hardly crying over something i chose not to attend, or is that too difficult for you to understand ?

I don't mind you correcting my grammar, Google will be very helpful in your quest i'm sure. You could ask your teacher to help you now it's playtime at school.

No we haven't held a football world cup game at The Shay. I think you'll find that's down to a lack of opportunity and lack of capacity required for staging such an event. Which is why your challenge is utterly pointless.

Most Town fans have said The Shay looked great yesterday so I don't understand your problem. It reaffirms that the stadium is a community asset.

Don't let your narrow-mindedness get in the way of your blind loyalty lad, there's more than one football world cup you know. Try & think before posting, am sure you don't need to hire Wembley or Old Trafford to host U-20's or ladies competitions...... source of info Wikipedia

[Part quote="Never_Shay_Die"]

"It's just that the above makes it sound like yesterday was in some way Halifax RLFC's achievement."


Allthough it was the RLWC under the stewardship of the RFL as Triran has stated what you saw on the day was backed up by a massive amount of work behind the scenes from HRLFC.

In fact if Halifac RLFC had not been playing at the Shay for the past few years the game would not have been staged there.

As such Halifax RLFC were very much a part of the work before hand, the occasion, the achievement by real actions and by association being based at the stadium.

Resulting in nothing but good for those involved, the game as a whole and the Town of Halifax.

It just makes your post and comments sound like yesterday was in no way Halifax RLFC achievement.

What is a fact, Town FC had nothing to do with yesterday so what has it got to do with you what goes on at a rugby game.

Why even bother to post if only to take a cheap shot at Fax again.

Blubba says that this type of thing doesn't exist and is paranoia but I knew sooner or later a brick would move and one would crawl out.

Quote: "Still, you lot are no strangers to hypocrisy"

Your right every time a Town fan comes close we are right next to it with a capitol "H."

Still, don't cry about it.

We know how upset you already are because of being put in the shadows of rugby league again.

There is a chance that an England C international
football match will be played at the shay in the
coming months.If this happens it will make for
an interesting comparison.

Who is this "WE" you speak of?

Do FC Halifax own a stadium to stage a world cup game in, or are they merely tenants? Or do you refer to the council, who own a stadium and were so fantastically assisted by the Rugby League club playing in their facility, in producing an event the whole town could be proud of. As happened yesterday.
