Mick, we played Rochdale earlier in the season they brought 100 fans at most.Fax must realise teams like Swinton, Batley, and Dews are currently better than you,and Fax are now a below average team,I think a crowd of more than 1,000 will be a good gate .Hopefully I’m wrong.

Well, you've missed our last 2 matches for a start:

1,205 v Sheffield
1,290 v Toulouse
CC against London 728

Also remember lower crowds in the Shield at the end of 2016 when we failed to reach the qualifiers:

1,228 v Sheffield
1,133 v Dewsbury
1,182 v Oldham
1,217 v Workington

Now where did I put my anorak?

I deliberately didn't include this season as still ongoing The att for the Sheffield Shield game is shown as 946 in the RL Yearbook.
Ill put my Anorak back in the cupboard

We played a Sheffield Shield game? I’m even more confused now.

Confusion Reigns its just not cricket !!

Usual loyal supporters there. We haven't had many floaters all season besides the amateur club freebies.
1300 there if season tickets counted! Actual less than 1000, as it has been for most of the season against teams with little travelling support

Too right. Only the real "true" supporters of Halifax RLFC will be there on Sunday, and I'm proud to say I'm one of them. And for all the disappointments we've had in the league this season, let's really get behind the lads and make some noise.

Have you read any posts on here which suggests we believe we're good?

We all know how bad we are, dont worry about that!
