He would only need level 3 and I am sure they would accelerate or make an exception for someone with Widdop's experience in the game.

| If it is correct about Finn leaving, who was taking the proverbial when he was offered and accepted a3 year contract, You cannot fault anyone for wanting to better their career, however after half a season has he found out he is not as good as he is/ was made out to be, furthermore, given the supposed issues at Huddersfield is it not a case of out of the frying pan into the fire?

| The crowd at Huddersfield v London wasn't much over 3k. And with Davey knocking on a bit (into his 80s) one wonders when it will all come crashing down for the Giants.

£22 a ticket though (in advance), Same as Fax charge for a seat.

The Giants early bird season tickets are relatively cheap. £165 for over 30s and £90 for under 30s working out at approx £13 and £7 a match respectively. Probably explains why their CC home games are so badly attended when season tickets aren't valid.
I notice that Zack McComb isn't in the squad to face Toulouse. I thought his 8 match ban had finished and he's one of Finn's faves.

Aye, but the product at The Shay is much better to watch. Wainwright 4.1%, The Westmoreland Inn, Bowness. Mmm!

Not a clue. Really strange time to take a holiday though when you have just had 8 weeks off.

You're having a laugh?
Maybe the club carried out their own internal procedure? This was included in the disciplinary hearing:
"The referees report stated that, “After a coming together of players in approximately the 61st minute of the game, Zack McComb clearly shouted the word "xxxxxx" to a Sheffield player. I had originally walked over to McComb as he wasn't calming down after the original incident and appeared to be being held back by his team's physio, and that is when I clearly heard him say the word "xxxxxx" towards a Sheffield player.”
• The Match Review Panel felt the Player’s actions were unnecessary and against the true spirit of the game and brings the game into disrepute.
• The language used is derogatory and negative - term of abuse and disparagement towards persons whose sexual preference is for the same sex."

| Are you saying the club has seen fit to add extra punishment to a 8 match ban for name calling ?

This was put on Fax's website at the time of the suspension:
"Zack McComb was found guilty of Grade F verbal abuse in a recent Betfred Championship fixture during tonight’s RFL tribunal hearing. He has been suspended for eight matches, and fined £500.
As a club, we don’t condone any abuse based on race, colour, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, national or ethnic origin or any other form of Unacceptable Language or Behaviour
We’ll be launching our own internal disciplinary investigation as per our club policies and procedures. Neither the club nor the player will be making any further statement until this investigation is concluded"
Incidentally it was indeed Zack's birthday, as faxcar has pointed out, last Monday and he was 29.

| Unusual for a player to be allowed to book a holiday in season unless its on a free week.

Especially when a free trip to the south of France is on the cards!

| Latest rumor from the game caller sugests that Muzza is close to agreeing a deal to become our new coach for next season. If true I think it could be the best news in quite a while, Ive said plenty of times on here that I think the club made a huge mistake getting rid of Murrell and Tyrer so it would be great to get one of them back and get someone in with a bit of passion which I think has been sadly lacking in recent years.

Heard this rumour last week through a random source ( my mrs’ works at a nursery in golcar and one of the parents has connections with king cross rugby league) checked with another more reliable source and seems to have some substance with potentially Widdop as assistant. With these plans in place hopefully that means we have things in place to get us through these financial stormy waters .

| Noises heard from people at the club when chatting to us all in France over the weekend - about 20 players already signed up for next year. Wage bill budget £150K less. Some talks with potential investors happening, one who has approached the club and made himself known to some of us at the weekend. And contrary to a lot of what you hear on here and social media, some very passionate and emotional people who have invested some not inconsiderable sums of money and been a draining time for them and family.

| I must have missed the announcement that Finn is leaving, or asked to leave, when did this happen, I have seen the rumours on here that he is Giants bound, as I posted that out of frying pan into fire, but if he is being pushed can Fax afford severance pay?, or if headhunted will a compensation be paid to fax?

Could be any number of clauses in his contract for get outs, to benefit either him or the club, Eg The offer of a full time coaching job elsewhere, or a release without severance for not reaching the playoffs or something similar.
I'd imagine it'd be seen as mutually beneficial, Huddersfield aren't going to be throwing much cash, and for Fax it's a chance to get rid of him without a potential payoff.
