Why is it so quiet with news coming out of the club?

Many of us went to that night at The Shay a while back, where we watched the Video and heard some grand plans. Since then its been a lot quieter.

Alex Simmons gave us a great speech and told us how excited he was to be working with Halifax, but other than his tweets about a trip to Australia to see what he could learn to bring back to Halifax, not seen or heard much else from him.

Tony Abbott has been quiet recently, which is out of character if anything.

The Membership scheme was "Coming Soon". How long is soon?

In 1 week's time we have the Cup Game against Widnes, what's been done to promote it?

Other clubs are already talking about next season, making announcements. What's our plan for This year, next season and beyond? Should we not be outlining a realistic five year plan? With realistic targets, or do we keep doing things as we are and potentially get left behind?

It's frightening. Going quiet at completely the wrong time. It's still early in the process but this time next year the game will be completely different IMO. Do we want to be in the mix or not?

It was quite farcical in a way today.

Pete Emmett telling us all that tickets are on sale for next weekend, but then having to come back later to confirm that it's not all ticket (as if it would be!). And why on earth is it at 2pm? Folk do other things, and certainly I gear my day around a 3pm kick-off - not a problem for me next week, but sometimes a 2pm kick-off would mean me missing the game.

Our marketing is really poor. FFS, we're playing SL opposition next weekend and we should be doing our utmost to fill the place to the rafters!! The Shay was a sell-out for Tonga vs. Italy, but we can't organise things to get folk to come down to support the team for a "real" competitive game??!!

all the cup games kick off at the same time next sunday followed by the draw for the next round on tv

Thanks, that explains it, but sort of makes it worse that we're pandering to the TV companies for very little recompense from a club/fan perspective!!

I admit. It's all a bit worryingly quiet. A good placing and good crowds this year will stand us in good stead for the big next season.

It's almost as if Tony has had the wind knocked out of his sails by not getting his hands on the shay. If you read Alex's twitter at the moment you'd have thought he was paid to do the PR for just Bradford and the rhinos.

Very very odd

vvvv

So can I just pay on the gate for the Widnes game? I haven't seen any announcements on this?

Does seem a bit strange!

Sort it out Fax

Yes you can, all are welcome.

The silence is deafening.

To be honest, I was intrigued by this 'Membership' idea and thought we were getting back on track with some good forward thinking. Would really like to know what's going on behind the scenes, it might lift the apparent gloom and doom we all seem to be feeling!

Come on Fax, keep us true fans informed.

A Big 2 weeks for the club with 2 good games to promote - so come on lets see some promotions guys!
