First of the more local signings?

What is the truth in the original statement about the take over by Campbell?
The only facts I'd suggest are the ones on Companies House. Interpretation, including my own is opinion.

I'll stand corrected then, assuming the confirmation statement wasn't incorrect. Not the first time I'm wrong and won't be the last (just don't tell the wife.
).
And also to note, the second confirmation statement wasn't posted when I looked earlier.

The Confirmation Statement dated 22/12/24 (filed on 19/1/25) showed a transfer on 26/9/24 of 41360 (B) shares previously held by MC with a new entry for PH as a holder of 41360 B shares.
Colm Corran also ceased to be a director on 25/3/25 but was reappointed the same day.......

Given the change is dated from 24th sept and is only to note persons of significant control, it feels to me like this is simply correcting an error. Unless Paddy had either bought out Mark or had more newly created shares then he wouldn't necessarily have been a person of significant control, irrespective of being nominated to the board as chair.
No changes have been made to the listed directors.

I’m hearing from the people I know in the club that we’re wanting only homegrown talent next year, or at least not signing any overseas players and keeping whatever overseas players we have.
Cost cutting on expenses seems to be the reasoning (apparently the overseas players come with a lot of ‘additional costs’).
Makes sense to some extent and I believe we should look for players developed close to home, but I’ve always liked the splash of more exotic foreign players in the team. And historically this has served us well.
Be interesting to see our signings towards the end of the year with this in mind, as it will be a smaller pool we’re fishing in if that is the case.
Whilst this makes sense, I'd hope we're not planning on releasing all those overseas players we currently have on the books, especially those who have been with us for a number of years. Given the increased quota for overseas players in SL, we'd also find it increasingly difficult to find good value overseas.

Significant performance for me tonight. Halifax challenged us and we eventually came out on top, but thought final score flattered us a bit. What I’m starting to like about us is the team seem to trust the process and turn up for each other. If you’ve got that plus some talent you’ve always got a fighting chance.Â
Agree with this. In previous seasons we've started to panic and go away from the plan, whereas now we seem to stick at it in the knowledge cracks will appear.
Enjoyable game all in all. A few daft mistakes, but some good attack and defense at times from both teams and close enough to keep the nerves going for 60 or so mins before we ran away with it.

What kind of idiot would waste a good pint doing that?
I didn't see who threw it, as it sailed across in front of me. I do know it was one of a few pints that had been abandoned on the terraces before kickoff for whatever reason. Idiotic thing to do though, no need for it. Thankfully we use plastic pint pots.

Conditions were horrendous. I don't think you would level the same charge at Warrington and KR who only mustered a try apiece.Â
Ultimately it was two great defensive performances in a game decided in the cruelest of fashions.
I know the conditions, that's why I asked.
It's surprising how many will moan at poor attack without ever crediting defense. I thought two really solid performances given how wet the playing surface clearly was.

A question for those watching the 1895 final at home. Two good defensive performances, two poor attacking performances or a mix of both?
-
As a Fev fan in the stadium, could have gone either way. Fair result though, can't complain at the outcome. Congrats to York.

Watford gap services absolutely rammed with RL fans, seems to be hundreds from Featherstone.
We've just stopped at Toddington. Plenty of KR and Warrington, and team colours as we've driven down the M1. Only seen one car clearly Fev fans tho, and none as yet obviously from York.

Just Gareth Gale and Josh Hardcastle remain as survivors from the 2021 Wembley squad.
I think I've seen that Jubb is the only one of York's squad likely to reappear, unless you include Mikey Lewis in the curtain raiser.
Both squads on the day were heavily Covid impacted however, with several players even our own fans wouldn't have been familiar withÂ

Our 21 man squad is out and includes:
Two players widely reported to be out through injury, O'Connor and Olpherts.
Two others, Wynne and Williams who've missed the last two games.Â
Two more Turner and Akauola who haven't made the 17 for weeks.
Four of those six won't play, two will.
Wynne and Williams are the two I'd expect to see. Hopefully having had "niggles" doesn't equate to breaking down unable to continue in the first 10 mins...

I think if you clicked on the link provided by the club the RFL would have known where you had "reached" the tickets website from (and you would have been directed to blocks130-32 etc).
That said, plenty of people might have just googled the RFL and bought tickets having read that we were in blocks 130-32 without following that link.
I'll not comment further, I'm in block 136.

Just wondering whether anyone's registered the name of a possible phoenix club. Don't know where to look myself.

It looks like we're going to be heavily outnumbered in terms of support with York stating that there they have sold 2,500 tickets. I've seen a few people being critical of us on forums etc or the numbers we will be taking, but as well as the points Martin Vickers made the other day, it's £100+ per person just on tickets and transport for most people and with London prices for food etc it's no wonder a lot of families, in particular, just don't have the money to make the trip.
Any idea how the ticket numbers are being counted? When I ordered from the RFL site, as directed in club communications, there was nothing to indicate who I was going to be supporting.
