Appreciate there are lots of protests planned for the Widnes game. I'm sure Sky will ignore every t shirt or flag and not even mention the protest.

How about a symbolic, Turnng our back on the RFL for the first few minutes of the game, quite simply everyone turns away from the pitch in slience for the fisrt 3 minutes. The silence and the fact that the crowd were the facing the wrong way would force Sky to at least mention our disgust at the RFL>

The cameras will be on the game, not the crowd.

Think it's a good idea, even better if Widnes join in.

SKY camera's cant ignore all East and South Stand stood facing other way making no noise for 3 mins!

Lets' leave it then..........or perhaps we could all bend over to symbolise get shafted like a choirboy by the RFL instead

It's precisely the there is no point attitude that made the RFL know they can get away with it anyway

We could all hire those inflatable sumo wrestler outfits to represent the game's fat cats

....or just one particular fat tw@!

I appreciate this is a bit radical, but, how about facing the game all the way through, how about wearing our club colours instead of silly gimmick t shirts. how about cheering and clapping when the time is right, how about showing the tv viewers how much we are behind our team how about supporting with dignity?

because that worked ever so well the last 3 years didn't it?

Why don't some people get a Coffin and carry it around the pitch? I know its been done before but it was just as daft then as it would be now!

The best way of showing the RFL up would be to absolutely hammer the Smoggies, simple as that.

How about, no-one turns up to watch, but yet announce a crowd of 4500.

Eh? What do you mean, we've already done that one???

That was an RFL idea , they asked Fax to do it

All part of making an elimination process into an application one , it's just a shame the Fax board didn't realise it until too late , and believed the lies told to them by the RFL top dogs

Leave it starry. Its like banging your head against a brick wall.

These sad sacks can have their rugby league, they all deserve each other. I'm through with it all now. Will hold a small ceremony of rememberance tomorrow

Good luck in your fight everyone!

Is your emoticon trying to get in or out?

Whilst I agree with most Fax fans about the iniquities of franchising I honestly think supporting your team is more important.

Oh and have to say Widnes looked a good side today.

We knew this would not be liked by everyone, but the the players have been told and they think its spot on! they know we support them or we as fans would not be making such a stance. There will be a leaflet drop on the gates with instructions to how it is going to run.

This goes much deeper than just getting into Super League, its about the divisions below and how the RFL have turned their back on these divisions, as one of the people turned up last night said.."we now have only a couple of games left, but does anyone know how many teams are going to be relegated? or how many teams will be promoted?" NO! and thats because the RFL are not interested in this league and have not decided yet!!!!

So its not about turning our back on the team or rugby league, were turning our back on the RFL like they have turned their backs on the lower leagues and even grassroots rugby, the very people who feed their beloved super league!

All we ask is a minute of everyones time "yes" even Widnes, once the ref blows their whistle for kick off the ground turns around and is deadly silent, then a hooter will sound after a minute and everyone is encouraged to make as much noise as possible.

We hope you will all join in, by the way other championship clubs will be doing the same!

I like this idea, ok now you need to contact all press and get representatives from local, national papers, tv crews, im sure they will be interested as its an unusal event.

Absolutely ridiculous idea. Spitting your dummy out isn't going to get you anywhere. The best thing Halifax can do is take the decision on the chin and continue building and developing the club like we did the last 3 years. The RFL are never in a million years going to turn round after a silly protest and promote you into SL. You are in a better position than most clubs for a franchise nect time around. You have great fans, a stadium more suitable for SL than a handful of current SL clubs. I can see 3/4 clubs in 3 years being up for the chop back down to the championship and if Fax continue to develop the way they are in the coming 3 years, you'll be up there with Leigh for promotion favourites.

Keep the faith and show the RFL what a great club and set of fans you are. don't give them a reason to think otherwise.

No you didn't , the Widnes club ism't much different to how it was 3 years ago , you were wrongly overlooked then and had your place guaranteed

And besides which , this isn't just about the Licence/P and R issue

Do you believe the RFL treat the Championshps and the clubs and their fans fairly ?

Is it right that clubs at this late time of the season still dont know the make up of next years competitions and what they are actually playing for ?

How can you possibly say we didn't continue building and developing? Over the last few years, we have doubled our sponsors, our academy is better than it ever was. even better than what it was 3 years ago and facilities within the stadium have been increased. Although i agree after we won the NRC final our place was pretty much named on this time, if your under the illusion we just sat back and waited 3 years your totally wrong.

It's the RFL, when have they ever done anything fairly. It's not just clubs like Halifax in this league that get on, if it wasn't for Crusaders pulling out their SL application, Wakefield would have wrongly been in the championship next year.

We'll agree to disagree on the merits of widnes now and three years ago

But you agree , the RFL aren't really showing a lot of respect for the clubs down here , we seem to be an afterthought when everything else has been sorted ?

I do agree Starbug yes. I've said all along, when our club, Rochdale, Doncaster and various other clubs went into administration nobody give a dam. The minute Quins or the welsh pretenders went tits up they had all the help they needed. I wasn't intending to have a go all i was trying to say is if Fax don't develop over the next 3 years they wont have a chance of SL next time if nothing has changed.

I believe both Leigh and Fax have more potential to be a more valuable and suitable SL club than Wakey, Quins, and possibly Salford and Cas. Two very well structured clubs who over the next 3 years need to give the RFL all the reasons they possibly can to include them in 2015.

But this isn't just about licening and P and R , its about all the Chapionship clubs and their fans

Like starbug says this is not just about Halifax RLFC it is about all the championship/championship 1 clubs getting a fair deal and being treated with the respect they deserve. Any way Richard Lewis as hinted that the Super League will be reduced to 12 teams with maybe another French team being put in so I would say that our chances of getting in in 3 years time at the moment are zero plus in that case 3 teams will have to come down 1 of which could very easily be Widnes so you might want to think about that before you shoot down our plans to protest.
