Come on 'Fax!!

Stuff Leigh and drive another nail into their survival bid.

It`s quotes like this and the ones about Hobson that could turn out to bite us on the behind. We all want to win this match but I for one do not want to send a club down who have a decent away following . We need to win this to ensure a decent place for the playoffs let Leigh find their own level.

I want them to stay up for a few reasons...

1. More revenue for Fax. They bring more fans to the shay than gateshead. The league away support is bad enough with Haven, Batley, Donny, Gateshead, Sheffield and Toulouse bringing next to nobody, even Fev's support has been minimal at times.

2. Apart from the odd one or two their fans are good for a laugh..

3. Their stadium and facilities are better than half the drivvel in our league.






































oh and it's 6 points for next year

The emotion just gets to me sometimes

I forgive you.

Its comments like that that have made us unpopular with other fans

Let's not.


Leigh have a great set of fans, (which can be said more so than some of ours), who travel to support their team. They are also knowledgeable about the game, and you get great banter with them.

The team may have gone off the boil this season, (lukewarm maybe), but we have always had passionate games against them. Don't forget how many Leythers have come through the Halifax ranks as well.


Shame on you for the thread title.

Personally i wouldnt mind if Gateshead went down because...

I dont like the fact they can play as many as Aussies as RFL let them, its a ridiculous state of play and devalues the competition in my eyes, its not honest.
and
Its a longer drive than Leigh, and theres no atmosphere when you get there.

I think thats probably 3 but nevermind...

We need Leigh, Halifax and Widnes all strong in our comp. to prove what a farce franchises are.

Thanks for all the positive post looking forward to the game all have a safe journey all the best.

Can't we just let them have a 1 point, it won't cost us anything ?

Personally, I think you may be wrong with the final one. I think that the RFL needs Toulouse to hang in there, so that they can award them with a franchise, to prove how good they are!
