Great interview and that is just what was needed, very positive from all the BOD.

I feel better already, thanks guys.

Brilliant interview and some positives. Interesting when we heard a out about the coaching staff for Sunday, Scott, Gonzo, Jim (and a few others)
Well done Pete for another good production although you do seem to age very quickly on 10 mins 45 seconds.

My thoughts exactly, would be nice to hear from a member of the board once a month just to keep fans up to speed and keep the rumour mill silent.

I do have one massive question though. If everything is great then why the statement? Was it simply to placate Harrison?

Also Harrison has had the full cap to spend every year he has been in charge and the training facilities have been better than every. Shows just how out of his depth he was!

Yep agree with that cheers fellas

Well it wasn't quite Frost Nixon, but I've got to say well done to the BOD and Fax Tv.
Get this a more regular feature and people will feel more connected.
Onwards and Upwards.

I agree also, I wasn't gonna go tomorrow but have changed my mind after watching that so I`ll be there now. did anybody read the comment by Paul Holroyd on Fax tv A***Hole Jeez get a life or crawl back in ur Hole.



Up the Fax.

Ignore the idiot comments on youtube. The guys used all three of his braincells to work out they only paid £580 less than we did. Ignoring the fact that they have twice as many games as we do.

It's a thankless task but one which would be made easier if they did this once a month.

It's obvious we're not knocking on SL's door but neither are we at death's. Until someone stumps up the cash we are fortunate to have these guys at the helm to steady the ship in choppy waters.

How can you agree a rent, move in then half way through say I am not happy that next door have a bigger kitchen so I am not paying it any more.

We have paid it. Therefore we have every right to air our complaints.

What about u23 games that are played at the shay..... I'm pretty sure usage is even after those games.

Halifax RLFC pay £4290 per month inc vat and FC Halifax pay £3000 per month inc vat. And just to confirm even with the U20 still play less games! These are the facts. All the rugby club want is parity simple

Your lot play for 90 mins we only play 80 mins in fact on occasions even less, so stick that in your didgeridoo and blow it!

You also have a club shop and offices in the east stand, while the football have no shop and use the run down offices by the skircoat. You entered into a rental agreement with the
Council. As did the football club..

Fell free to read all of the freedom of information documents that have been released in the past few
Months, concerning the shay.

My attempt at drunken humour clearly failed, might I suggest you get a life!

Has the rent been paid as per the agreement. Yes.

Can a tenant renegotiate the terms with the landlord. Yes.

Would you want to do so if you were paying an extra £1290 per month. Yes.

Have Reactiv ended their interest in the Shay. Yes.

You should be happy, I don't understand what your problem is.

Oh and by the way Tony Abbott is still here proving his interest was not "Only in the Shay" as per the mass of hysterical claims from Town fans. Fact. Yes.

Good interview, I think we all know the guys have the club at heart, in the same way that we do. Most on here were calling for KH's removal and it has been done, don't complain.
On the previous Fax TV where KH bemoaned the training facilities it does seem it a bit strange that he waited so long to do it, the team have been training at the college for ages and it's the same facilities that Lee G uses day in, day out.
Last time there was a big call for KH as coach lets hope we ignore anything like that and get the right man.

But your not "down under" are you.
A few years ago when Malcolm Powell (Nobel Prize winner for Literiture) (sik) ran the Fax shop he offered to sell Town merchandise on Towns behalf.
The offer was ungraciously declined.
Mr Abbott offered to sponsor a Town game, declined.
The Rugby club have tried on a number of occasions to work with Town, on the other hand?
The supporters of the Rugby team have no animosity towards FC Halifax, on the other hand?
Try and explain!

Yes we have a Club shop but as far as I remember the football were allowed to "earmark " the more prestigious area for offices and shop on the ground floor which they were supposed to be moving into . That area has laid empty and is being used as a bit of a dumping ground by people (not sure who ) spoiling the whole look of the stadium waiting for Town to make it`s mind up wether it moves in or not .
This space if it was not going to be used should have been rented out a long time back bringing in much needed revenue for the stadium .
The run down offices that Town prefer to use as club shop and offices are also a dreadful eyesore and were supposed to have been pulled down ages ago hence why we had to move from them so what is the hold up ?
I am sure when the agreement was made between the clubs and the Council the deal was done for parity for both clubs.

Well said HJ. Remember though that most of the comments from FC fans are from the same two or three people. Most Town fans are O.K....ish!

Jubble Rooms, Sowerby Bridge. Phoenix Spotland Gold 4.1% Mmm!

I wonder what value the club puts on the extra facilities that they have that Town either do not have or choose not to have. At the end of the day Town having space for a shop but deciding not to use it really is their choice and probably is not a valid argument. Im not sure it can be classed as prime position so I would imagine the club is probably fighting for maybe £500-750 a month on those figures.

Your right I live in Elland now, but as a born and bred aussie, i think I'm entitled to my forum name, not that it's any relevance to this conversation.

To be fair, I've nothing against hxrlfc and would still class myself as a fan, who else would have subjected themselves to watching us lose 76-0 in brisbane many moons ago.

I'll be honest my beef and I suspect a lot of fcht fans grievances are with your board of directors. I personally have never liked Michael Steele after the way he talked to halifax football fans as we were returning from an away game. As for mr Abbott.. The foi's speak for themselves and the sort of business he owns and the fines/complaints made against him don't fill me with confidence.

I would guarantee that if you had a different set of directors then the relationship of the club both between fans and at board level would improve
Considerably.
