Should be fun, can't think we've got any more that 25 in the squad have we?

We only had 17 fit last week.

much more of contest you would have thought 

The Barrow/Batley game was going to be on Monday evening, but the Queen's funeral has changed that the date so no TV for that game.

According to a Halifax director, if we win on Sunday we replace them as the highest ranked team and would play Featherstone away, not Leigh. I thought as ending up 6th we would get Leigh if we beat Fax. 

Ha ha don't be clutching at straws. Leigh get the lowest team. Fev get the highest.

He was talking about the funding for final positions rather than who would play Fev or Leigh but I believe he has that wrong as well as we will always end up with more funding than the loser of the Barrow V Batley game.

Yeah because Fax can't lose 3rd spot.

 here's what he said BO

This is a massive game for the club as it will determine our finishing position in the Championship table and therefore how much central funding we receive in 2023. People probably don’t realise that if we lose to York, they then take on the 3rd place position in the league

I think  poor little lamb got confused the playoffs are like any cup comp the further you progress the more money you get but they are stand alone the final league table is set in stone and Fax will get funding commensurate to third place £££££££££££

 

[georgeb1]

No Brendan again this sun , big miss.

[Fax Knight]

How many missed matches is that now? Given what we’ve paid him over the last two years he’s probably on more in terms of £’s per minutes played than Latrell Mitchell. Sorry, he’s no doubt a lovely bloke, but we actually need a half back who is on the pitch, not one sitting next to James Ford.

plus sticking with a half back who is so 'now you see me, now you dont' just hard bakes inconsistency into the team.

[georgeb1]

Disappointing going to fax with so many missing but hey its more than likely our last match , no point trying to stand in the way of the Leigh procession

Yeah I saw what he said and think he has got totally mixed up about what is happening but I think he is right that the final funding is decided after the playoffs or at least that is what I remember the RFL saying unless someone has seen a change to that. Obviously Leigh always have the lowest ranked team so that never changes but I think funding is still to be decided?

In 2020 York received funding as the 3rd placed team in 2019. The play-offs weren't taken into account. No idea if it's changed since, mind.

Who knows? It is Rugby League after all️

Just hope we don't concede 100

[Ovenden Grunt]

Well, it's a nice but cool day for the game over here. Let's hope The Shay is rocking and we get a great game. Up The Fax ️

[georgeb1]

Hope we see an entertaining game , just have some fun lad's , up the kneets.

[HaxbyKnight]

Hard to say how many Knights fans will actually be at the Shay. A number of supporters will have travelled to St Helens, watching our Ladies, hopefully, win the Grand Final. I think the men's game will be much closer than people think. Maybe a Jamie Ellis drop goal in the 79th minute to win it for the Knights.

[Puk]

Got nothing to lose hope we play with a bit of freedom and take Halifax by surprise.

[spanishknight]

Playing well but our wing defence is shocking, 22 . 10 at H.T.

[Rockingchair]

Fax fan , it hurts like hell but congratulations 

[spanishknight]

That's the best we have played all season, well done lads.

[coolie]
