HALIFAX PANTHERS have moved to alleviate supporters’ concerns following the winding-up petition recently given to the Championship club by HMRC.
The club released a statement this morning, saying: “Halifax Panthers would like to address the concerns raised regarding the recent HMRC winding-up petition. We want to reassure our supporters, sponsors, and community that we remain confident in the club’s position and its future stability.
“All outstanding liabilities to HMRC have been settled, and our legal counsel assures us that the club is in a strong legal position. While we are actively engaging with HMRC in the hope of resolving this matter amicably, the High Court hearing represents an opportunity to formally clarify our position. We remain confident of a positive outcome and are fully prepared to protect the integrity of the club.
“The past few months have brought challenges, but the unwavering support of our fans, sponsors, and stakeholders has been a cornerstone of our resilience. Halifax Panthers has been a vital part of the rugby league landscape for over a century, and we are steadfast in our commitment to ensuring this continues. We are looking forward to the 2025 season with optimism and determination.
“As always, we extend our gratitude to everyone who has offered support during this time.”
