You are Daryl Powell and I claim my £5!!!

I've been on that street. I saw Sam Barlow in a Fev shirt

lol!

I was actually being sincere and honest about Fev`s achievements with consistency and the guy couldnt take it. But i stand by my view on Powell!

keep this to yourself but DP is off to cas and rhino is coming to fev in 2013

Its becoming a cult following obsession this Daryl Powell thread...you sure your not secret admirers 15 pages and counting lol

if Penky goes to Fev he will have made i big mistake in my opinion. Fax legend to fax reject/enemy.

exactly the same thing that i would imagine kept Sam in blue and white.

whether penky goes to fev remains to be seen. The fact is that KH doesn't have him in his plans for next year unless someone can change his mind. Handforth at 9 is his plan.

If you dont mind me asking, where is your information coming from on this, " his plan is for handforth at 9 ".

It would be a massive mistake not to retain penky, He is a match winner and has saved us more times than i have changed my underpants over the years, ( ok, slight exaduration but you get my point ).

Can you imagine him playing for another team with a point to prove against us. NO NO NO, get him signed up, Also i am hearing rumblings on twitter about Keith Senior, We all know he comes down to watch his Mate Ambler, Daryl Powell rambling on about us spending big money, IS there something in it ?. Maybe he is ticked off and Tonka is signing for us, We will wait and see for the silly season to start.

Biggest load of I have ever heard.

I can only repeat Karls words when asked if Penky was going to re-sign.
"I only want people who want to play for Halifax, if they don't they can f*** off" quote.
So we still have to watch this space.

i dont think he'd have signed his contract if he weren't in karl's plans...

Which contract this years of next years?

You lads never believe me.

I have told you who he will be playing for next season. Bentleyman will confirm.

This seems to suggest that's not his view
Penky’s a great leader and a very smart footballer,” said new head coach, Karl Harrison. “He has tremendous talent and makes it hard for the defence. Having someone like Sean in the side is a real bonus for any team. With the arrival of Anthony (Thackeray) and Paul (Handforth), the three of them should create an amazing pivot for us.”

I dont think what KH said last year has any bearing now. But his current thinking for next year is Handforth at 9. I know there are people close to KH trying to change his mind. Lets hope they do.

I have heard persistent rumours that Penky is on his way out after this season and I was gutted when heard and it simply won't go away. The silence on a new contract for him when everyone else appears sorted seems to support this but it could be a big smokescreen. I've also been told we have a signed an "exciting" half back for next year which again would support playing Handforth at 9??

Its that time of season again so it could all be complete garbage and Penky's contract could be sat signed and sealed in the safe at The Shay and I for one hope it is as I think Penky is a different class and would be devastated to see him playing against us.

I am a big penky fan, but lets face it, if he moves on, we have had the very best of him; as you get older, you may just want that fresh challenge, or that little bit extra in the bank before you look at retirement from the professional game.

if he goes, good luck to him, he doesn't owe us anything, without him we wouldn't have been half the team we have been in recent years.

Penky has, and always will be in my eyes and absolute Fax legend. This will remain if he stays or goes due to the service and quality he has provided over the last ** years.

Loyalty is rare in sport these days, but as typified by your Penky / Barlow etc of this world, we are extremely lucky at Fax over the last few years.

I personally believe Penky will stay, but again, my view would not waiver in the slightest if he were to seek pastures new. Just hope he doesn't end up in the same league as us!!

like the above posters I have enjoyed watching Penky play , I wouldnt want him to go but if he should decide to do so I certainly wouldnt bemoan the fact but thank him for all his brilliant efforts over the years .
Having had to endure the insecent moans from the Batley fans around us of Lazarus Handforth etc etc berating all and sundry; to be quite frank the result was probably not what their team deserved but definitely what some supporters deserved if only to shut them right up!(very well timed that try Ambler!)
As KH said what is their problem, support your team but dont slag everyone off just because people made a choice in life not to coach or play for you. Its their life and their choice.

Ditto the above comments about Penky and what he has meant to this club.
My tip/info is "IF" he leaves it will be to Leigh, which won't exactly be a massive surprise.
Put yourself in his shoes.
Does he finnish his playing days with Fax where he has enjoyed all of his success and is a fans favourite.
Or.
Does he play for his home town club who are still a top side side for a couple of years while he still has something to offer.
Last chance for this if he wants it.

If I had to speculate I also think it will be very likely that any news on signings especially new ones will be left until the season is over but by sticking my neck out could easily have it chopped off

Hub caps for flat caps.....

Aye and they drive a reliant robin so there's no more to come.

m.halifaxcourier.co.uk/sport/hal ... witterfeed Just under the main story there's Harrison saying they've offered Penky a very good contract and they want him to stay

The offer was a couple of weeks ago but think Penky has agreed his move already.

I can neither confirm or deny and i only believe rumours if they are true
