5-0 victory for Town tonight. Are they drinking different tap water from our lot

another good win, still got 3 home games to go so will be making emc n council lots of money.

there could well be more than 4000 there for our last home game in a couple of weeks against skelmerdale. brilliant result again for town



as for animosity between both sets of fans, its only a minute few, the vast majority were delighted so many faxfans turned out to cheer the towns footy on against lancaster on saturday

Went to FCHT's game at Curzon tonight, think it's fair to say that they're nailed on for promotion now.

good on yer mate,from a fan of both hx clubs.

from the town forum:



"I think the rugby fans have been very magnanimous in their support of a great result and a great crowd for the Shaymen. They have gone up in my estimation and I will certainly consider supporting them during the summer once our season is over."



Good on you all

Well done for getting such a big crowd, but ffs, cant they give it a rest ontheir sites with their jibes aimed at our club....

[iIt was suggested to me last night that the rugby club sometimes inflate their crowds as it looks better for Super League applications That might explain the reason for the difference between the crowds. Never 2,500 for the Cougars game on Sky a fax fan has told me (who also goes to Town games)"[/i

They've won the league and promotion today. Won 4-2 and Lancaster drew. Lancaster can match them on points over the next three games (assuming Town lose their remaining two) but the goal difference is massive.



Congrats.

Mathematically possible for them not to go up with automatic promotion, but yes they are as good as up.

Well done to Town and all associated with them. Premier league team playing at the Shay next season. All we need is for Fax to keep up the good work and could be SL there the season after.

Let's just hope the footy fans don't come on the forum clogging it up with their immature ego's, spouting on about their success. We are gracious in our congratulations to them, they should accept them and wish Fax well also.

The sensible supporters (yeah including me

) are grateful for the kind words said on this thread.

Gav - can you hack it in The Premier League? Is there a parachute payment if things don't go well? Do you like prawn sandwiches?

Rumour has it its going to be the Tesco Premier League from next season so every little helps.



Shouldnt need too much tinkering to the side to be able to challenge at the top. Whilst a step up we should still have one of the highest wage budgets in the league thanks to the excellent level of support the club has sustained. Our biggest asset is Neil Aspin who is a no-nonsense manager that has managed to instill a fantastic work ethic into the players.



Its great to win promotion but we are still a long way off being anywhere close to where we feel we should be.
