Yeah from what Tony Abbot and Mike Rilley said if the can get more toilets in the north stand for that game the capacity of the ground will b 10,000. So if bradford sell there tickets for the skicott stand . Im guessing they will be given 1000 more for the north stand

10000 sell out up the fax

After this weeks franchise announcement, disappointing as it was, it would be a great two finger salute if we were to fill the Stadium with Blue and White, , , AND to do to Bradford what we almost did to Castleford. . .

Up to you out there

if we could all persuade a new supporter or two or three(perhaps threes pushing it?) to come along or even an old one who hasn't been recently it would be the ideal riposte to you know who!!!


Please do all you can to make this game a full house, preferably a BLUE and WHITE full house. . . we'll do all we can on the pitch. .if we are both successful, it will make it very hard for them to ignore us again in July

My son and I are season ticket holders, but my wife and daughter will be joining us for this one. The best message we could send out is "Sorry Bulls, you've had your 30% allocation and we've sold the rest of the tickets, so no more available."

A month to go, but we really need to get things right on the pitch so we're not embarrassed on the pitch. We blitzed Cas with our half backs and hookers speed from play the ball. This is the only way I can see us having a chance of turning over the Bulls - but we don't have all the same options available now....

At least we have someone who we know can kick a golden point for us...

really hope this game is a sell out or close to one anyway. To make this happen tho everyone needs to invite a friend who wouldn't usually come and the club needs to do all they can to advertise the game and advertise it properly.

Swifty 62, replied "who cares if it's a sell out" and then later "wish I had your positive view"

Should it not be "wish I HAD a view"

i said who cares what the make up of the crowd is if a sellout.
the wish i had your positive view was refering to size of the crowd.

I would have thought the make up of the crowd was very important. Surely we want a large home presence
A, to support the team
B, to show the RFL we are serious.

yes, but would also like to see the shay full with any crowd for a fax game.

THE SHAY FULL!

WOULD BE AWESOME!

I CAN SEE 4,000 FAX. AND 3000 BULLS.

The worst of it is that the team's lack of form couldn't have come at a worse time both for sales of CC tickets and also for adding impetus to our already slim chance of a franchise. After all the shouting we have done about how on-field performance should be a major factor it seems that we now are incapable of winning a game.

I agree. But.... the RFL have clearly shown that it doesn't matter one little bit what happens on the pitch.

does anyone know which stand the Bradford allocation will be? and if they're separating us from them? would be good to be a mix as i thought like with the Featherstone match when the majority of them we're shoved over the far side the atomsphere was sort of lost and with it being Bradford i'm expecting a good day with some banter from the fans etc.

Ah, but it suddenly will matter when it comes to Fax!

Actually, I was just thinking the other day that once a team gets into SL performance on the pitch ceases to matter. Think about it. With all the debate going on all the time about who should be kicked out of SL when does anyone EVER mention performance or league position? It is always about grounds, attendances or finances.

All the Skircoat Stand and half the East Stand, I believe.

If this is the case, then Bradford will have 3/4 of the seated area on the long sides. To television viewers it will give the impression of a Bradford home game......not what we want surely.

If Bradford do get half the East Stand I would hope that it is the area with the large hospitality cut-out. I find this area most distracting when sitting in the south end of the East Stand (which I rarely do for that reason). The north end of that stand is, in my view, the best for viewing. and Fax fans should have the opportunity to be there.

As usual. a totally useless answer. So you would be happy with, say 8000, bull"hites and 1000 Fax supporters.

No come on out of LOYALTY to Halifax RLFC lets all get down the Shay.
Yes its bad at the moment and yes we are sick of Matt Callands lack of coaching skills and yer we may get well tonked BUT its on TV and this is our chance to show the Bullsh*ts fans and the rest of the RL world that we still have a pulse and are still a big 'ish club.

Just do it PLEASE.

Oh and the club could do with the dosh as always.

so you think i always give useless answers? this one isnt.
if you are going to count who is supporting who, then yes, anything to help expand your mind.

I think hes living in cloud cukoo land if he thinks it will be much different. I think at best and i mean very best is that there will be 3000 Fax fans there, realistically though it will probably be closer to 2000 as there will be no free tickets available to Fax fans which with season tickets and complimentaries makes up quite a portion of the crowd on normal games. Also the form we are in will take some from both teams off the gate as its not everyones cup of tea to see their team get hammered or win by a cricket score.

Went to get my tickets today, and told that sales had been very brisk. Also told that Bradford had the Skircoat Stand and "some" South Stand tickets. No East Stand tickets at all for them as yet.

I have a theory. We have purposely lost our three league games to lull the Bulls into a false sense of security. Then - it's shock and awe and a Fax victory.

Get yer tickets for the greatest show on earth

Nah, that's not the master plan at all. We're 33/1 to top the league now, but win every match to the end of the season and we're all quids in!!

Lose to TO again on Saturday and the plan gets even better - maybe 40/1 then?
