Its game on this Sunday, a Win should confirm our return to Super League for 2019.

Halifax are expecting a BIG crowd 8,000+ and I understand extra temporary bars have been added to the ground for those who like a drink or 2

Looking forward to this one, always enjoyed trips over to 'fax

Yes, it was always great going to Asda, I mean Thrum Hall RIP

I always liked going to Halifax and I always found their fans ok too. while I'm confident of a Leeds win I don't think it will be a runaway win. I think Leeds will take a safety first game plan and Fax will have a dig first twenty ."A wins A win" again

Long time since been to the shay, last time I went think it was to play, looking forward to it. Shame it's not Saturday there is a smashing Thai cafe/takeaway in Halifax indoor market.

Looking forward to it, sell out crowd. Loads of Leeds going over I imagine.

Leeds by 50+

Nooooo

Leeds by 60?

Leeds by 2 would do

As cold as I have ever been at a rugby ground even colder than the Watersheddings

A must win game

Anyone recall the game away at Thrum Hall late 1980's in the snow?(Where's TVOC when you need the exact details?)
I recall both sets of fans having a mass snow ball fight both prior to the game and at half time too,happy days

I remember a cup tie in 86 in the snow that Leeds won 24-4. Tony Currie scored a peach at the bottom of the hill and Keith Rayne scored off a Jeff Grayshon offload.

Fans were pelting snowballs around that day so I presume that's one you are talking about.

Halifax was top of the league and had Joe Kilroy at full back who was frozen to death as was I.

we went on to lose in cup semi replay v KR at Bell End Road.

Was that a high-scoring affair? I seem to remember winning one Boxing Day with a daft score like 42-38 or something. I might have dreamt it though!

I go to a few Fax games if we've played on the Friday. Worth it for the Three Pigeons alone! Decent fans too. Hope they make a few bob out of the game.

will be nice to help Fax out with a BIG crowd, just like we did -v- Fev in 2016

Last time I went to Thrum Hall Oli & Joe Burtons Dad Danny was playing for Fax. Great player, but had to drop down to lower leagues due to work commitments.

Remember on one occasion Gary Scofield running rings around Halifax. Can’t remember the score although I am certain we won.

Looking fwd to this game not been to Fax for years.

If leeds get well in front in this game they must not let up points difference could come into it .

Remember on one occasion Henry Sharp running rings around Leeds. Can't remember the score although we definitely won.

That's the one Marty as I recall "Smoking Joe Kilroy" playing at full back that day

I remember the cold but not the detail of the game. Grayson was a great player in his career, at Leeds he tried his heart out but was literally playing on one leg. He looked like he was doing an impression of long john silver.
I remember an away game at Swinton, think in challenge cup and I think it was him that got his boot laces tangled up with another player and they had to stop play for a bit. My memory maybe playing tricks though.

Yeah I remember that at Station Road it actually appeared on what happened next on a question of sport one time.

Cheers, I vaguely recall that now you mention it.
