[quote="Listenup94":3tjmwnjk]I've noticed in the recent few discussions on there that you have remained quiet , unfortunately you have been party to the ongoing vitriol against the rugby club , I would probably say that that forum is an example of how to stir up hatred against an organisation , a mix of uneducated unchallenged nonsense where every fault of the rugby club is examined with a microscope and filled out with false narrative bs , yet all the sins of the footy club are conveniently overlooked .There's a reason why that forum is a closed forum , because if was public it would be shut down imminently. Anyone connected to that forum should have no involvement in the running of the shay, I would advise you to fall on your sword before you even consider unsheathing it for battle.[/quote:3tjmwnjk] 1) You are incorrect. Yes, I may have spoken out over the years about the conduct of those running Fax, but regardless I am pro-Halifax Panthers and the value they bring to the town. There is a difference between the two...just as I am pro-FCHT but against the current owner. 2) Any 'unchallenged' nonsense, can be challenged! 3) Yes, you need to register to use the forum, as you do this one. This was due to an avalanche of spam-users a number of years ago. Even if it was 'public' who would shut it down and for what reasons? Registering is available to anybody so I am at a loss to what you are on about. 4) I am not sure what my involvement with the forum has in connection to the working party. I can back up my past in relation to the Shay and the value I believe it has to the local community, which is hugely influenced by having two solid/successful sporting teams as tenants. If people dont like me or things I have said in the past or future, fine. Its not a popularity contest. I know with Fax fans, my reputation (if I had one) was tarnished with the Tony Abbott affair, for which I was proven right. That wasnt due to any negative feeling towards the rugby club. As for 'unsheathing it for battle', I dont have a clue what you are on about.

[quote="Bubba":3d6ununp]That's incorrect. Gfn1 is still there,albeit under a different name. You've only been banned if you're being a dick or trolling. If you're making a fair argument, you wouldn't have been banned. This forum used to be the worst for banning.. Hoddie was banned...which i think probably led to his low tolerance of RL trollls[/quote:3d6ununp] So my last ban was because I suggested back in June that fax were in dialogue with the Council regarding taking on the shay , and possible investment from the fraine bros and possibly others, to which flea said i was thick as mince , based on the warnings I had from hoddie regarding aggressive language I asked him to apply the same rules with him , his response was that certain loyal individuals were given special dispensation , so I replied no problem I will sort it out outside of the forum, then I was banned. Seems like the kind of fair impartial person we want involved in the running of the shay.

[quote="Bubba":3tygzrzc]I'm guessing the fact you said you would sort it outside of the forum it was treated as a threat, which isn't tolerated.[/quote:3tygzrzc] A threat of what , what do you think I'm gonna do drive to Tesco and beat him up . I'm a strong believer in accountability. Hoddie should have warned flea for being abusive . That's his job .

[quote="Bubba":1eqehxex]He's one voice. Don't be so paranoid[/quote:1eqehxex] There is no being paranoid. Yes he is one voice but it is a voice of hatred towards Fax and when he has influence over a lot of members on that forum who seem incapable of thinking for themselves then it becomes a problem. I do have a feeling what you are saying and what you think about the situation are two totally different things. Again would you allow someone on your group who had expressed a hatred of all things Town going back nearly a decade?

With another football game being postponed ( before Fax have been anywhere near it ) with the backlog of games and the rugby season getting ever closer I can see the issues with the weather and pitch coming to the fore again. In view of recent posts it will be enlightening to see if and how much blame and abuse will be levelled at the rugby club again.
