The way I read it is that if we'd lost (assuming that the 16-12 scoreline is correct!) then a London Skolars win against Toulouse would have put us out of the comp (it looks like this must have been postponed).

Correct Hxsparky thats as I see it !!!!

I'm not saying he shouldn't have gone. I'm saying that when he was here, a performance like this would have been met with a flurry of "typical Calland".

What do we say now?

nowt we won!

Gutted for them to be honest

Until those who were there comment - its wrong for us to comment - and I doubt anyone will be asking for KH head

What we need to remember with MC it was not just the NRC it was the first 10 league games in which we were awful - He was not judged on just one poor performance - at one point we could have gone down !!!!

Tyrer try in 80th minute according to Sky.

To be fair, the love/hate thing with MC was after more than one game. We know we have a good set of players and a good, proven, coach and we just need to breathe a big sigh of relief and move on...

were u there?

how do you know we didn't totally dominate and created load of chances but just sloppy finishing let us down?

What i'm getting at is, no matter who we have as coach, or who we have in the playing squad - this is Halifax. This is what we do.



I'm 41, have high blood pressure and Halifax will be the death of me.

Its a young naive team. In their minds, they should have beaten Fev. Skolars probably played like their lives depended on it, as was our attitude last week. "Its only Skolars" mentality nearly cost the club another few grand or much more. These kids will learn. Wouldn't fancy being in the away changing room after the game.

Can you imagine? Jeez.

Better to focus on an ugly win


We were through anyway from what 92.4 said.
As for MC, hes the past now, im sure we can move on, many of us had our own personal reason and stories for why we didnt think he was right, or why we didnt like him personally, we won a trophy though, we'll hopefully have more now and its time to make some more memorable times.

I think that KH will let them know what he thinks and what he expects in the future. The season kicks off next week, and I'm sure we'll see lessons learned.

You could not make radio Leeds up - Halifax qualify as the 4th placed team - have we not finished 2nd ???? He's a real pr**k !!!

We were not through and the chances are a loss today would have seen us eliminated as the Skolars v Toulouse game is at Skolars !!!!

When's the draw?

Didn't we win today? The scoring suggests that it may have been a tense close fought contest, with a desperate last gasp try to win it. I would rather see that than a tedious victory by 50 points. This was Skolars' biggest game of the season and I expect that they played their hearts out.

If sports teams started repaying entrance fees every time they have a poor performance then that would leave quite a hole in their finances, especially when they have played away from home so they haven't even received any income in the first place.

We won. We are in the quarter finals. Be happy.

No I wasn't their and bloody glad I didnt go as trip was going to cost me £150+ and the rest!! Don't be naive, our 23's last year would probably beat these lot! It's our lot being lazy that nearly cost the club lots of cash!! The last time we didn't qualify the club had to win the GF just to stay in business!! I dont need to be in London to see that the performance wasn't and isn't acceptable! I was also getting regular updates from someone at the game so I know we were average at best!! Legs left on the coach were his words and the only analogy I can use at this time of day!! This time though I trust KH to act on the performance and give em hell!! We needed to be professional in our execution of this game and not expect to just turn up and win!!

My comment re refunding money was slightly tongue in cheek kidda!! However I am serious about lazy lacklustre performances!! We are in the hat but only after an injury time try, being out of this comp at thus stage could have had dire consequences for the club, trust me!! That team had too much across the park for any Skolars side, a lack of respect caused the result today!! Luckily for us we live to smile another day!!

In what way?

Someones already asked, but whens the draw?

tbh this stuff is very disrespectful especially from those not at the game. Skolars played really well and I think Fax did as well. It was a close tight game with top defence on show.

and for the guy who said Worrincy was the only Londoner on show you might get a big shock. Our team is just about all home grown. And Worrincy is one of ours as well.

1st player i checked from the score sheet - Dylan Skee

(ozzy)

draws next thursday on premier sports www.loverugbyleague.com/news_832 ... irmed.html

Quite embarrassing you missed both try scorers named before the Aussie on the scoresheet - Austin Aggrey & Ade Adebisi

& you seem to have forgotten our crowd favourites of recent years - Shad Royston, Ben Black, Makali Aizue, Said Tamghart, Jim Gannon, Dylan Nash, Luke Branighan & Frank Watene.

also Dylan to be factual came through the quins academy and has played all his senior rugby here. 14 i think today.
