Holy Moley

Worrying undertones in that release too.

Sad to see it end this way but the right decision, slightly worried by off-field rumours, no training facilities, no office at the Shay etc. The last 2 games will be felt long into next season in my opinion, 250k is a lot to miss out on.

I posted on the other thread, but it looks like it's a time for coming together Fax fans. If it is how it reads all the best for the future, and remember a new dawn follows the darkest hour. fingers crossed for you

Well it seems that Karl and Lee have left not the club getting rid of the coaching staff because of resent result. It doesn't feel good at all the way the statement reads. all the best to Karl and Lee, thanks for your years of work at our club.

Sounds like there's a bit going on behind the scenes and it doesn't look good. Hope you get a positive resolution and quickly.

Hopefully the problems will just be the lack of facilities, not ideal but not club ending at least. Hopefully they made the decision to get rid of a very poor coach. One thing I would like to say is that if the troubles are money related then Harrison has everything to do with it; his poor style of play has destroyed our supporter base and primary income stream.

Karl did have an office at the Shay

"When the club's position improves"

That is a worrying statement but I think we all suspect the club is in the doo-doo, but just how much and can it be fixed?

Where is Tony Abbott and where do we stand if he has disappeared? Is he still majority shareholder?

I think there needs to be more coming oput of the club now.

All the best KH knowing your passion for the club, pride in yourself as a coach it must be one of the lowest points of your life.

Sadly it did not work out for whatever reasons, lets do what we can to support the club, we've done it before during tough times and we can do it again.

Harrison will always be my rugby hero - he was the first player I ever met and got me into watching rugby league. It is sad it has ended now regardless of other opinions.

Roll on now.

Fax TV should be good later - stay tuned.

FINALLY!!!

A legend in his playing days and quite rightly a Hall of Fame member, his coaching performance with us shouldn't tarnish his playing days but quite simply the wrong man for the job.

Yeah, well you're too young to have seen me play !

The timing of this leaves a lot of questions of what triggered this at this exact time.

Although Halifax RLFC is "Our Club" it is a business. A business does not and indeed is often best not to divulge all the behind the scenes activities and problems to its customers (Supporters).
We pay to watch a product and although we feel in our hearts we are paying public and have no right to be privy. Buy into the company and learn all you desire.

The club could sell itself better to its customers but with limited resources at least they try. Some new blood with ideas wouldnt go amiss. Anyone out there with money and time to spare? I am sure the board would welcome you.

Sunday was confirmation that we couldn't finish second. He had earlier made statements that Halifax would definitely finish second. They may have both agreed some time ago that he would walk If his statement didn't materialise.

Second





Fax WILL finish forth and earn a trip or two to the LSV , Charlie knows .

Have you been drinking again Charles?

I think the decision had to be made at this point. We will beat Barrow on Sunday so you cant really get rid of someone after a win so that would mean him taking the team in to the playoffs and given that it seems not many of the players are interested in playing for him it would be an embarrassing exit of that i have little doubt. There was no way the club could renew his contract so the time is right now to hopefully just give the players a little kick up the backside and hopefully a push in to the playoffs. It also gives the incoming coach as much time as possible to work with the squad although it has to be seen whether the club waits till after the play off exit to bring him in.

I just have a feeling we will perform better under Murrell for the rest of the season than we would have under Harrison.

Karl and the Club tried something, it didn't work out, and its been a dignified ending to a rapidly worsening situation.
Fresh ideas needed, a hungry young coach with something to prove, and I don't mean how many hot dogs he can eat in one go.
My concern now is the uncertainty, the Club wont be able to push on and win fans back until next season, its going to be a tough winter.
Get the buckets out now.

Good luck for the future guys. Hopefully they'll be no financial difficulty ahead but read some bad stuff about the current situation. See you in the playoffs?

After the last 2 weeks team selections and the terrible style of play for most of the season i,m relieved that harrison has gone.the excitement and anticipation have gone and fans have voted with their feet,and we know how hard it is to get people back.
Lets hope we pick a coach who can give us the exciting rugby we crave,I think the squad we have should have been capable of a much better season and with the right man(Scott?) maybe we can have a good go at the play offs.lets get down there on sunday and give the lads our support.

Only orange juice Rich , im teetotal , and stand by my predictions , Fax will finish 4th in the League , get a trip to the LSV the first week of the play-offs , lose to the Mighty Centurions , then win your play-off game the following week , and earn another trip to the LSV , Charlie knows .Maybe a welcome return for Bernards lad Dane

.

Really putting your neck on the line there Charlie saying Fax, in fourth place with one game to go, will finish in 4th.

Im going to go out on a limb and say that Leigh will not break their playoff duck in the first game of the playoffs.

Greg my friend , I never sit on the fence , you just get splinters ,I think Fax will beat Barrow on Sunday and Donny will beat Batley at the Keepmoat , giving you 4th spot .

As for your prediction ?The old Centurions might have been under pressure to win , but this is the CLASS of 2014 ,Stronger , Faster , strength in depth , and ready to March .We shall see who knows most ,Charlie or Greg
