ey up Mart,
I don't think you are missing anything Mart.
Whilst I take issue on the "numbers" bit of your post, from my experience the villification of all from Fev appears to be from the overwhelming majority of those that use that forum! In my experience there are one or two exceptions, but that's it!
However, I did discuss this last night. Trying to be self analytical and all that.
And in the main, you are most correct in your post. It's childish, petulant and as you say OTT.
The games we lost v Fax mean nowt really. I got over the loss in the semi by the time I had driven to Rotherham.
What has angered me so much to the point where I was rejoicing about the result was indeed those comments on the fax forum. It's a temporary thing.
And yes you are correct again - I am generically applying a 'broad brush' to all fax fans - perhaps I shouldn't have - I am aware of the irony of my comments.
and I have discussed elsewhere the need to move on - tho I am finding that very difficult due to the unbalnced myopia proliferated on there (from some).
I don't want this. I don't want to feel like this. But Jeez Mart, some of the crapola said about Fev fans (of which I'm one) has hit deep - and I've never assaulted or abused anyone from Fax (with the possible exception of Frank Watene)!!!
I guess what I am saying is, yesterday a lot of anger and emotion spilled out because of a lot of what has been said/written about me/us.
But I agree entirely mate, time to let it go. - tho it's not easy from this end owd cock!!
Robin
ps you would think given the job I do it would be easy to deal with this stuff. Shows some processing issues of my own I guess!
Ha ha that's better Robin your smiling again in a proper way.
You will make no progress with them at all mate you simply can't have a reasonable conversation with a real life idiot or sporting one either and there's no point knocking if there's no one in.
I was starting to imagine you and Sid being shown on tv dressed in black and burning Fax flags and images of the Shay and before Sid says owt no we would have not supplied the matches you can get your own!!
As Fax fan for years I know what it's like to have my heart ripped out watching them, since 1987 what have they won.
1988 being well beaten by Wigan in the CC final, losing again to Wigan in the Regal Trophy Final in 1990.
Losing to Salford in the second division premiership final in 1991.
1999 going into CVA to wipe out huge debts.
2003 relegated from super league losing 27 games in the season.
The boardroom has been more like a turnstile than a boardroom for years.
Matt Calland getting caried away with half seasons success and the "country mile comment."
Last year getting knocked out of the NRC play of stages by Hunslet and being kicked out of the Challenge Cup over the Ostick Gate affair.
All these things and more the supporters of Fax which they have had no say or control over have gone through and yet many still turn up.
I don't know were people think Halifax are some favoured club because if they are I would hate to be cursed.
I tell you what to help you get over it I have a mate who works at my place as a plumber / gas fitter.
He is an ex miner who retrained some years ago when things got tough down pit.
He is a season ticket holder at Fev, you may know him Rocket Ronnie Spiers and a right lad to boot.
Why don't I get him to fit you a blue and white loo and toilet seat and then you can pretend to p**s and cr**p on us everyday
Or what about me sending you a Matt Calland dart board with his forhead in the treble twenty so you can stick it to us on a night when you get in from work.
Just imagine how much shouting "180" could mean.
With that kind of motivation look out Phill Taylor that's what I say.
Thinking of nursing and rivalry between supporters I was down in Wincobank at the Southern Cross nursing home a couple of weeks back and I had to get access to one of the bedsits.
In the one chosen the poor old elderly resident had just had a rather smelly accident and had to be taken out to get cleaned up.
Of the 2 nurses 1 was a Blade and 1 was an Owl the smell was pretty bad.
The United fan says "hell fire what a stench".
The Wednesday fan trying to be smart says " what's up with yer soft wuss that's nowt to me."
The United fan says "well i'm not suprised your used to it with that Sh**te team you support you must smell this every time they play".
1 plucked and stuffed Owl fan dissapears to the canteen.
1 nil to the blades, top corner unstoppable.
Just let me know when you want the "I love Fax" tattoo removing from you left buttock you know it's there, it's true it really is.
