thought he had signed for fev or another champs side.

I think Azuie is on a 2 year deal




oh joy

Patterson to Leigh?

Patterson is also on a two year deal if I remember correctly.

Leigh fans write in such a way that it seems so believable

Leigh and Widnes fans think we are rubbish and our defence is terrible... Yet they want all our players!!!

They also break them. Look what the Mutants have done to Varks. He's a shadow of his former-Fax self.

A list I have made after searching the news archives on Fax Site. Work in Progress.

Lee Paterson 2 Years
Worrincy 1 year with Option for 2nd Year.
Stephen Bannister 1 Year
Cherryholme 1 Year
Luke Branighan 2 Years
Dominic Maloney 2 Years
Jon Goddard 2 Years
James Haley 2 Years
Mark Gleeson 2 Years
Penky 2 Years
Ben Black 2 Years
Bob Beswick 2 Years
David Wrench 1 Year
David Larder 1 Year

But these don't mean diddly squat IF ....... i repeat IF some rumours are true - about the club offering contracted players to other clubs.

Anyhoo. I'm more interested in THIS year and our impending GF appearance

Fax V Leigh final I predict with a Fax win by 4..................you heard it here first.

Your sources are Heinztastic.

These rumours were about Stanley Gene and Aizue which turned out to be true but it was nothing to do with finances. We all know why Stan and Maka were offered around.

You can keep Maka......never rated him and a very poor signing for you guys.

Now you tell us

Was more fun actually watching you lot realise how bad he is.

Massive disappointment. He was supposed to rip this league apart. He's barely ripped his training top off.

Ah well.

it hasnt really affected us



infact this season Frank the Tank has stepped up and is making the yards his size says he should.

Couldn't have put it better, Frankie has had a storming couple of months and is our form forward at the moment.

Demetriou would be a quality signing but I guess he would want some considerable dosh.

Id rather we spent the money on a reserve team than pay an ageing aussie.

Exactly and given the injuries he's had recently its not difficult to work out why Wakey are getting rid.

If that list features those who will be playing for us in 2011, I think we should fill the rest with good, young promising players from Calderdale. Lets get Halifax lads playing for Halifax, lets add to Haley and Bowman. We might not challenge for honours, we might well do, I'd still come to games if there were 17 Halifax lads playing for the crest.

Why?

Any good youngsters have already been signed up by SL teams. Leaving us with players that simply arnt good enough. I couldnt care less where the players who play for us come from as long as we can get the best possible team we can afford on the field, but then again i am a club before country man.

Im personally a huge fan of Halifax lads playing for the club but only if they are good enough. We are all acutely aware of the number of Calderdale born players who have slipped through the net over the years, either by bad management, lack of opportunity or better prospects elsewhere. I suppose its easy to say get the local lads in but structure needs to be in place to do this which costs money, and unfortunately we are not in that position at present. I do however share the same sentiment.

I bet most of these will never play SL, and are signed up just to prevent any other team taking them.

Young prop Luke Ambler is also included in McClennan's initial leeds 19-man squad for this weekend.

Was nice to see him watching Fax v Widnes last week, sat in the Stand with our injured crocks.
