Wonder what took all the time?

Apparnelty the Halifax board had to scrap around to find 10p to use the toilet and it took this long before raising the funds so the meeting had to be delayed for an usually extended comfort break.

What is annoying is that i remember the toilets being 1p (time to spend a penny).

Not funny AT all, mate.

From the Halifax site:


"Heard directly from a good source that the decision will not be made until AFTER the Boston hearing....Hope yet."

Town appeal 'fails'

HALIFAX Town's hopes of playing Conference football next season appear to be over.
Courier Sport understands that the club has failed in its appeal to the Football Association against expulsion from the league.
No one at the FA could confirm the reports but the club is expected to release a statement this evening.

The decision has been reported on both our website ad the Halifax Courier website. I really can't see the above being true.

[Alty365]

And why would you have one appeal lasting nearly 6 hours and then go "just hang on lads while we deal with Boston and we'll get back to you after". That would be ultra-bizarre!

That comment over the 10pence not funny,lets remember that Halifax have helped us out with players in the past.I for one wish them well in the future.Pity we could not have got the win at Muff and then it would not have come to this from our point of view.

"Halifax had hoped the FA would put them in Blue Square North"

I think this explains why it took such a long time to resolve things today. No doubt there was a lot of pleading and arguing of their case during the course of the afternoon.

[Saughall Robin]

It does seem bizarre but I must be getting a bit gullible with all the conspiracy theories flying around.
My thoughts were that perhaps they were considering demoting Halifax to the BSN if Boston were demoted out of it but down to the Unibond otherwise.

I'm probably over-egging things and worrying about nothing as usual.

From the look of things over the past few weeks, most of the Halifax fans  think the 'consortium' will pull out if they go out of the Conference altogether and they will have to form a fans club.

For my own part, I'm VERY relieved for Alty indeed but gutted for the Halifax fans.
I know how bad I felt when WE almost went bump and wouldn't wish that on any fans (perhaps not even Vics).
