I agre MM, can't believe we did this, time and time again Fax shoot themselves in the foot after showing a glimpse of getting it right. I just feel deflated today, another wasted opportunity, theres some pounds been lost by the cup antics this season thats for sure.

Still annoyed, still want to know what went on within our club, but the matter has now been "dealt with" in regards to the game, so now lets move on & support the team. Afterall, maybe except for Ostick, it wasnt any of the players faults, they are who we support!

I think, in a nutshell, when Hull played Thackray, the RFL discovered they didnt have rules in place that specified what the punishment would be for the offence. (Par for the course for that joke of an organisation really)...but anyway Thackray hadnt played for another club in that years Challenge Cup, Hull just didnt file his registration properly...

since that incident, the RFL have put rules in place that ensure that clubs who offended are punished....

Just what we deserved, I just hope now our own review is not a wash out and we can finally start to tackle any rotten apples in our club, and remove any apathy that we owe anyone a living down there. Its about time cages were rattled and people were asked to move on, we have been an embarrassment for years now, my patience will not last much longer, there are other things we can all do on Sundays, but choose not to, Stop taking the P Fax, sort it out now!
MC and MH wont get it right for us, we need to face that now! before this shoddy affair staggers to the next crisis. Take a couple of the team with you too if they dont like it. Enough is dam well enough!

I'll be there to support the players, they have no blame in this whatsoever. Whether or not I'll dip in my pocket for the club so easily again is another matter.

I will certainly be there hoping for a positive performance v Barrow. I just hope that as a group of individuals, as a business that there has been a broad internal review and we at least learn from this instead of stumbling towards the next balls up. Professionalism must run through the core of the infrastructure and sadly it does not (currently) . . . . . . . Now is the time to change that!!

We have the excuse to refresh things . . . . . . . But will we?

i know what your saying but how many times can we keep saying it, i'm getting sick of it myself.

Do you frig, players come and go. It's the club you support.

Hopefully kicked out of the cup will be deemed as sufficient, financial penalties at our level could just about tip a club over the edge.

They are playing for my club, so I will support them. I agree with you re the fine etc.

I may be biased but I think 'Fax have been harshly treated. Those black and white c~~ts got to Wembley on the back of cheating! How are Stanley, Macca and John Goddard doing for your lads?

Short of the Shay burning down, just about everything that could have gone wrong, has this season. Is there now anything that [ihasn't[/i happened to our club?

If there's one thing, giving our past track record we're probably the most galvanised set of troops there ever was

hmm, you could say they have played better football in their earlier careers

We're having a Liverpool season aren't we.

Gutted.. Are we the first team ever to be expelled from the cup part way through?

Matt Calland suspended pending a further investigation by the club...

The fact that matt calland has now been suspended by halifax tells a story in itself !

i dont think you will recieve any sort of fine, as already posted a heafty fine will see a herd of players being sold!

Ostick must have known he had played , but then again when you submit a team surely the RFL should create some system which prevents things like this from happening.

i enjoy a day out at fax, you have some great pubs and the banters great!

hope the RFL just close the case and say nothing else about it. Do you think this may actually knock you back for a franchise ?

We deserve it. I was hoping we might get away with it but no such luck

Calland and hall should go. Hall makes the signing so he surely should be aware of player issues

Ostick should have said something

What a mess

I will be there cheering on the boys on sunday and hopefully we will show barrow what we really can do.

Next coaching staff will preferably be tee total

and have one neurone more than an amoeba!!! Not the brightest lamp in the pit isn't mathew!

Watching his facial expressions against Keighley on TV, he was gurning like a primate

and his budgie did not let him know either

agree. fax could have made a lot of money already this season but by mistakes are losing money quicker than can make.

Probably not the best example to use on the 25th anniversary of the Bradford City fire.......but we get what you mean.

I remember one of your threads last season when Leigh were in relegation trouble " Lets send Leigh down" my my how are the mighty fallen couldn't happen to a nicer team L.O.L.

yeah and they saved you

We have fallen nowhere See you in grand final
