ADVERTISING GAMES BOARDS : Wed Apr 08, 2009 7:52 pm  

Has any one noticed how small the advertising boards are for the games? you would miss them if you walked past never mind drove past. I think we need bigger fancier signs to draw in the people..

would be nice to see when you drive in to halifax.

this has been mentioned before. Most we seem to see is just an A4 printed piece of paper. No one will see that driving past at 30mph.

Probably just another opportunity to bash the stadium management...you know, him who works for CMBC

If the sign is on Council/Stadium land, then they'll just have a say in the size of the sign, not what is on it.

That is what the first poster is saying the boards too small .It certainly can`t be seen I know the previous one dropped to bits I think but surely it was bigger wasn`t it?Maybe we should contact the advertising agencys to see how much the ones on Huddersfield rd are or the Road ones advertising Halifax then underneath we could have underneath "Home of Halifax Rugby League. We had one like that at the entrance to the village for our pub, we should start looking out of the box a little and if what`s on offer at our ground isn`t what our club needs then we should look elsewhere.You could not move in Bradford or drive through it without the Bulls plastered all over the sides of the road even though at their own ground advertising oportunity was there.It seems a bit daft to me there is all that very poor looking frontage in some parts that could be enhanced by maybe geting someone from the art college to do something on it.

surely the Stadium Managment (whoever they are) are missing a trick here.

Why dont they try to get a local company to sponsor a large sign at the 4 corners of the stadium which can be updated for Town/Fax games easily.

thats a spot on idea. i think new signs will bring more people in, i bet there are loads of fans out there that just dont know when fax are playing.
