I believe all Fax fans are excited and why not ? It`s nice to go and watch exciting free flowing rugby for a change not the dire one man 5 passes and a kick that we`ve had for years.For the fans who have stuck by our club when all the rubish was going on I salute them and if they want to get excited and even over excited then good on you.

So that's who we are modelling our 'style' on!



Seriously though, when we've had this debate on our forum, about exciting rugby, and winning rugby, the conclusion always seems to have been that you can have one, or the other, but not both! Nice to see that they can go hand in hand!

We in Yawksheer (as you put it), are so humble, that after years of thrashing you in the "Wars of the Roses" only ending by one of your lot marrying the rightfull heir from "Yawksheer" , to save your county from being wiped of the map, and becoming a satalite of "Yawrksheer" ,like "Todmoordoom". We have to settle for a "White Rose" stained by the blood of your forefathers as the "National Flower of England".Do'nt preach humility to a"YORKSHIRE MAN". Keep your powder dry you might need it to fight of the "Wigoon hoards" on your door stop.

Keep smileing we might both just manage to scrape into Sooopeerr League by the turn of the next century.

Dont quote me on this being a scouser and from a county that doesnt have a war like history but didnt Lancashire win the war of the roses and thats why we have a red rose as our symbol??????

NO we were drawing but someone from a place called Red Hall rode into the middle of the fight said the rules had changed during the battle, it would be decided by a golden punt which would be the union of the two sides in marriage.
By the way the person who rode in was not Nigel Wood as there were RSPCA represented on the field of battle.Well that is the story handed down through generation anyway.

What are Leighs crowds this season? Bear in mind aswell we have no reserve side so any money that would have been spent on that has been spent on the first team squad.

Our Chief exec said the club was embarrased by the call from the MP's to be put in SL.

We're well away it could all go wrong this season, but theres nothing wrong with enjoying a winning team whilst we have one.

I'd rather have a motivator like Matt than Kelly any day

Rowley is coaching now mate.

Even better

As said before, Rowley now actually WISE MAN and I would rather have someone without a couple of "charges" against his name

I dunno what Vikingman is laughing at with Captain Bull in charge they've got no chance off winning anything have they lol

Ouch

Leon Pryce???

What the hell has that goon got to do with the coaching of Leigh and Halifax?

Halifax coach Matt Calland states that "We (Halifax) are the best team in our league by a country mile!"

in this weeks league express......

You've already posted that on the Halifax forum



Calland is a born and bred Widnesian so naturally he has a big mouth.



His cocky nature will get him in trouble sooner or later, always said Fax are peaking to early.......................

Close but no Banana yet Matt



Halifax are playing the best RL in the championships by a country mile at the moment

As for the best team , they are the ones that win the trophy's

The weight of being the favourites has cause the downfall of much better teams than Fax

But all the same , well done you are proving that good exciting attacking RL can also produce wins , it is down to the rest of us to raise our games to the level you are now at , well done

Been charged and let off 3 times.

Then he is innocent.



Fax are impressive though.

I think haveing "ANY" Championship team which can compete with a SL team, even for one game . Brings more news worthy columns than "The Golden Chalice" which is CC.

Did he ever give that sample to the Police after he refused to take that drug test? The Halifax club lost all my respect when they refused to sack Calland over that incident. Doesn't set a good example to the "family game".

Still doesnt [ibeat[/i Mr.Calland who IIRC has been charged 4 times, not too sure about the result of the other 2



Anyway, Fax are undoubtedley playing the best rugby in the Championship by miles, getting the best results but will they be the tortoise or the hare? We've been there before and been bitten on the ass so enjoy whilst it lasts

yes he did give the sample. no way was he ever gonna get sacked for standing up for himself especially how hes done. it was only a minor offence too otherwhise hed have got more than a measly fine

News to me. Links please?
