| [quote="homme vaste":kpd1csk0]Surely the Brutal decision making, in this case (without knowing all of the ins and outs) being get an injury and we will just get rid of you, might have an effect on your reputation as a club when players are looking at where to sign? If I was a player, it would certainly put me off.[/quote:kpd1csk0]
Really!!!!! If I were signing I think it would point to a club who means business. Do you really think that it would have put Asiata off signing had he know about this before hand? if It would only put me off as a player if I was signing for the club and in the process trying to pull the wool over the clubs eyes. There is more to this than simply getting rid of a player because he is injured, perhaps more than we appreciated when we signed him.
As a club the parameters by which you are judged behaviour, dedication and attitude wise have changed immensely. The truth may or may not come out but it certainly won't come from the club. In fact as yet nothing has come out from the club at all so we await an announcement.

| [quote="DSJ1983":hc1ip16u]I’ve seen a few people say they don’t think Huddersfield will move back if they move to Halifax temporarily. I don’t know what people are basing that on but I think Davy will build a new purpose built ground for Huddersfield regardless if it makes financial sense or not. They’ll play in Halifax for a couple of years and move into the new ground that he’ll eventually leave to the club and supporters. His dedication to that club is beyond anything else.[/quote:hc1ip16u]
Fair play to him but he could let supporters in for nowt and they'd still struggle to get 6000. Even in 2013 when they finished top they had some terrible attendances.

Davy is a good bloke a dedicated fan of the club which is his life. He has been let down by the Huddersfield fans who historically withdrew their support when they moved from FARTOWN thus the years of that name being chanted at games. However I think folks in the know over there are basing it on a general consensus in local Government circles in West Yorkshire that even if the new ground project could be funded OK, the actual logistics of getting a site in Huddersfield, cleansing it, securing planning permission, community involvement and consultation traffic management plans etc is a massive obstacle. Remember when we started the KCom plan it was built by a local authority which was the planning authority on Council owned land in an approved 'Greenfield' development area in a park on an already approved sporting stadium reserved for recreation use. Even with all that it took around four years to get it done ( quite a pit of the spade work feasibility studies etc. was done even before it was announced) and there were many objections from the local community. I guess too the fact that Huddersfield haven't identified a site yet and want to buy the stadium at Halifax rather than lease it is also sending hares running. It will p*ss the Huddersfield fans off even more, it would me, but from an outsider looking in the Halifax solution (with them struggling for finance and playing in an aging stadium playing surface wise) with the size of the Shay would suit everyone including both clubs IMG ratings.

I think Davy’s late wife was a big Huddersfield fan and after her death he promised to continue to support the he club in her memory. Hence his unwavering loyalty.
Think this is solely about IMG points. Buy The Shay and make sure the advertising boards, gantry length and scoreboard pixel definitions meet all the criteria. Also 4,000 fans in a 10,000 ground scores more utilisation points than the same crowd in a 24,000 ground.
On a personal front, I think The Shay will be a better away day experience.
