Priceless! But you seem to be accepting of these excuses for Powell, despite the resources and playing personnel he had available. He also has a history of blaming others, as was his usual response whenever Fax or anyone got the better of his Fev team. Matthew Shaw also wrote an article on Fax the other week and what he thought was a gulf between expectation of some fans and reality; he reported that our spend was probably in the bottom half of the championship - did you agree with that?

If you think Doro not going to Keighley was the main issue, then you are clearly not well informed. As for my attitude, I'm sorry I don't bow to the same views and attitude of some on this forum and dare to have an opposing view. We all know you and some of the contributors on here have been wanting rid of Grix for the last 3 years. But even when you all get your wish, you cannot accept that he has left on his own terms for career progression and not because he was likely to be forced out.

I am not accepting any excuses about Powell that is the point you keep missing they are coming from other people not me what happens at Warrington is no concern of mine. As for Powell always blaming others do you ever hear Grix taking the blame for any of our losses not many coaches do take the blame for their sides shortcomings that is one of the problems i have with Grix.On to the issues with Doro if you are so well informed then tell us on here what is going on with him most of us on here have been asking the question since the saints game.Regarding Matthew shaw some of his articles i like but the ones where he just insults people like the one you mention i have no time for at all. And finally i do not get where you see your own views on Grix as not bowing to people's views on here. There are clearly people on hear that strongly support him and then those that do not it is not like you are a lone voice on this. And why do you think he was going to be forced out when the board was going to give him a new long term deal which he turned down it seems you can not except that he was the one who decided to leave. I think this as turned out the best for him and us.

On explanations.

When the announcement was made that Grix was leaving you agreed with Ohmetoe when he posted.

Great timing before a loss at london . His decision mak8ng has always been flawed.

Whilst at the same time posting this on Total.

I think Fax had their hands forced, they were meant to be announcing another re-signing but then this obviously got leaked to the GameCaller and they had no choice to make a hasty statement. I imagine he had a good chuckle that he had been able to do it on the week of the build up to the semi final. That said if we were to underperform for the rest of the season then it would be very much like the first part of the season so no biggie.

Not only were you agreeing with someone on here whilst knowing full well that it wasn't true but in doing so chose to blame Grix instead of the most out and out unreliable source Bulls crapper of all time.

Seeing we "all want the best for the club” care to explain how that does?

So you like the articles that suit your agenda but not those you don't agree with. You seem a bit sensitive as I seem to have upset you with my opposing views and now it would appear Matthew Shaw has insulted you for for calling out the "delusion" of some of our fans.

I haven't said Grix would have been forced out. My understanding is they made an offer to keep him. I was referring to some on here who suggested him going has saved the board making such a decision and was best for all. I don't think that's how the board see it.

You claim to be the knowledgeable one on here so I'd expect you would know. And of course, would understand the sensitive nature of it.

On ruined our season.
From the cup run we’re going to Wembley for the first time in decades and there's only one other club is doing so.

We’re still in the fight for the top 6 with our closest rivals being Bradford, Widnes and London, these are exactly among the clubs that most people would expect Halifax to be in the battle with and a few others expected to be there who aren’t.

Who comes out on top is yet to be decided but even if they do no one would be shocked or say Fax had a ruined season and the coach should be sacked, apart from those who never approved of his appointment in the first place all backed up by imaginary thinking.

No agenda which will disappoint you. And i always find it funny how the people throwing about the insults are only happy to do so from behind electronic devices like the journalist you mention . You may feel like you have upset me but considering you have never seen me upset i find it strange that you would think that and like i said before there are plenty of other people on here with opposing views so why would yours be a problem.

That wasn’t what they said though , they said funds would be made available to Grix if needed , we then signed lannon , crooks and obrien on loan . Nobody knows the budget for next year , it’s all speculation at the moment.

Yes but in this game the rules are you can’t believe a thing they say and can only mention those who are forced out, not in.

Can't recall a thread on here in a long time that has caused so much division/debate. It seems you are either firmly Grix In or Grix out and never the twain shall meet.

None of us know for sure what has gone on behind the scenes - we may hear conjecture.

Whichever side of the fence you are sat on - he is leaving - and I think it is important to say thank you to him for his efforts over the years, wish him good luck for the future, and see if we can unite behind the new coach for the good of the club, because no matter which camp you are in and what your opinions are the one thing we can all agree on is that we want the best for the club
