A "merged" club would either play in Halifax or play in Bradford. Where it played would be the team it really was.

If we "merged" with Halifax but the games were played in Halifax, to me Bradford would no longer exist and I'd have no interest at all in trailing to Halifax to watch the "merged" team, even if it was all the same players, and called Bradfordsox Bulls.

You can't fool the denizens of a town or city by using the word "merger" when in reality it would be nothing of the sort.

Halfway line on the municipal boundary?

It would be tad ironic if we moved to Queensbury tip, which is now in far better nick following its revamp than our current facility

Couldn't give a monkeys.


No seriously, I'd rather they were in SL. If not purely because it's an away game that I can get home from quicker coz it's closer than any other away match.

Are you kidding?

I doubt apart from a hotheaded handful anyone "hates" any team. well, Leeds, obviously. And Saints. But anyway not Fax.

I often long for the days of snowy winter derbies up at Thrum Hall, and there was always an absolutely cracking atmosphere whenever we played but especially away.

Good lot, the Halifax and personally I'm really pleased to see how well theyre doing. Mind you they should be bloody grateful that we sent them Agent Calland, who seems to have done the trick.

Don't hate them, think them going down has robbed us of a traditional big gate. I am a bit dubious about this one fan's actions, as I guess some of the parents of the kids at the school where he works/worked might be.
