Agreed HJ - we have hosted SL BODs and RFL officials in the past - they have all commented on how good the experience is.

is ned still down there ?.. top man is ned loves the club and i know all the players used to respect him

Over the past few seasons I think it would be fair to say the club could have been run more professionally than it has been at times but over the last couple of seasons I do think things are headed in the right direction.

There is always room for improvement though.

i still dont understand what the team performance has to do with backroom staff. its not as though they carry out team talks is it.

Maybe they are and that's the problem.... Mal you're not reading them your book at HT are you?

For the record all volunteers of any club, especially our hometown one, deserve all the plaudits they get for unselfishly giving of their time and devotion without reward other than to see theirs, and our team doing its best.
True supporters follow their club through good AND bad times and these people at Fax have done that over many years. All the behind the scenes stuff just doesn't magically happen! (I should know as an ex Chairman of a local side) . These people are like gold dust and to all who have unbelievably criticised them-hang your head in shame or better still hold YOUR hand up and support the club with your free time and devotion!

That's the problem Chris, That's where the coach has been going wrong. At the next match I'll pop in the dressing room and read a couple of chapters from my second book, that should get them going, Thanks Chris the club owes you one, lol

My pleasure Mal!! I think you'll inspire them... You do me pal!

For god's sake, Malfax, judging by the garbage "justthebasicfax" writes on here, we don't want him anywhere near our club ... please! And that goes for most of the other clowns on here. I managed to get away from this godforesaken place until I got "drawn in" recently. Don't take a blind bit of notice of the rubbish posted on message boards, it doesn't represent the views of the majority, just a load of whingers who have nothing else better to do with their time! Keep up the good work ... much appreciated! And that goes for Karl Harrison and the players ... we're going through a "sticky patch" but all will come good

Sentiment is right TF but if you think the views on the team and KH on here are in the minority your dafter than I already thought you were.... Boom Boom.

Just wondering if the issue really is with the backroom staff and Hilda has put too much starch in the shirts when she washes them, this might explain the lack of any ability to play rugby in them. Or is it poor coaching ?

Keep taking the medication Malc !!!! You do make me laugh, love you pal.

Thank Col, I feel much better now, lol

am saying nothing on this matter otherwise ide end up scratching somebodys eyes out

Sean, just go and crap in his garden




Anyway where is he?

First post, Fax fan for over 25 years etc. I go to games week in week out with justthebasicfax (a loyal supporter) and now that the 'inner circle' have patted themselves on the back and told each other what a great job they do, I just thought that I'd give my two penneth from the (ever dwindling) terraces.

The questions was two parts, first of which asked the forum if they could remember the last player who improved after coming to this club and secondly if the backroom staff could do with 'freshin up'. No one can doubt the good intentions of people who for years give their time up, for example the 'outed malfax aged 73', but a genuine question from the terraces is (apart from the utter garbage we watch weekly) do we need to take down the pictures of Chris Anderson, ban all 86 and 87 reunions and get some new blood in.

Surely we could pack any number of fatties off to Keighley and what we save on wages get people in with no baggage and stop that bloke writing in the Evening Courier about that time when they stopped off at some place for fish and chips and they left Hilda behind zzzzzzzz.

You might think its great in the hospitality boys and girls but the fans are completely turned off.

p.s Message to the board - do you really want to trust KH with signing new players for next year?

You clearly have a strong opinion and appear most disgruntled regarding how things should or should not be done at the club so I therefore suggest that you contact the "Inner Circle" and see if you can do better...and all for your free time too!

Making plans 4 Nigel. Well done on announcing your arrival.


Wow. Just, wow

A disgruntled/rejected player maybe ?

Admins engage snoop privilege and check ISP of justthebasicfax and this new poster

........ IP address I mean, of course

Firstly, may I say welcome to the forum
Secondly, may I say Goodbye

That's harsh, this is an open forum and people are entitled to their own opinion, I partly agree with what they are saying as one problem Fax have is that when people criticise (hopefully fairly) they get told to shut up.
Now as I said before the club need to learn lessons from what people say and especially they need to look after the sponsors like they are royalty, but they don't from what I hear!

yes harsh.He makes a good point about KH im concerned about
next years recruitment too.

Go on then, what have you heard? How can anyone "learn" if you don't tell?
