Quote Brew="Brew"It's also widely suspected he took out more than he put in over the time of his ownership.

It seems there is little other option than the Ken Davy option, we'll just have to see how it pans out. Neither Halifax club are in a realistic position to change their status from tenants to owners. So for the foreseeable will be at the mercy of someone else'"

If the Council do take the KD option.

There is still the issue of whether David Bosomworth will support it given the potential issues in having three teams using the pitch plus the fact that FCHT (plus the Panthers) will be lumbered with £150k of debt for the pitch works.

In the Council press release, he warmly welcomed the proposal but suggested "it is expected more detailed discussions will take place when clarity on any proposals allows decisions to be made."

This time next season the Giants could be playing Championship rugby. Now there's a thought!

Tbf the football fans aren't against it in the main , the main instigator of negativity is a few on the shaymen forum, I think they've managed a couple of hundred signatures on their petition. It's a strange echo chamber forum where there's multiple threads on rugby league, they've just spent 5 pages arguing about michael steeles involvement ( there isn't BTW) but it fits in with the low iq false narrative bs . Apparently damien clayton was sneering at the football club lol. The only thing that clayton got wrong was the term ' moral high ground ' when he should have just used the term high ground when referring to who needs the deal the most .

The problem with that forum is weak leadership, if you had that conversation in public it'd be shutdown within minutes such is the level of nonsense on there.

My concern is the debt that is going to be loaded onto both clubs for the works that will take place. We struggle at the best of times to pay the rent by the sounds of it.

Latest Courier Update. 7th of March.

Quote.

What is happening to the Shay. Council officers recommend what should happen to Halifax stadium as drop-in session announced.

A council cabinet meeting on March 17 will see two options on the table for the future of the stadium, which is home to Halifax Panters and FC Halifax Town.

They are a proposal from a working party of Halifax-based supporters that an independent, not-for-profit trust takes over ownership of the stadium, or a bid from Huddersfield Giants owner Ken Davy to buy the ground so the Giants can play there while a new stadium for his side was being built, before ownership of The Shay is offered back to FC Halifax Town and the Panthers.

Today it has been revealed that council officers are recommending the cabinet proceed with the proposals put forward by Ken Davy.

Calderdale Council says its officers have considered both proposals in the context of the council’s budget, current and future costs for the stadium and “securing best value for Calderdale residents”.

This option would require the council and the two professional clubs to commit towards initial investment for a Football Foundation grant that will provide for the replacement of the current pitch with a new hybrid pitch.

The council contribution towards the pitch replacement is likely to be in the region of £130,000.

The council says it already invests between £30,000 and £50,000 every year in pitch works.The proposal makes provision for interest free loans to be made by Mr Davy to the two professional clubs to help meet the costs of the pitch replacement.

The proposal makes provision for interest free loans to be made by Mr Davy to the two professional clubs to help meet the costs of the pitch replacement.

If Mr Davy’s proposals go ahead, the new hybrid pitch at the Shay would be constructed from summer 2025, to minimise the disruption to FC Halifax Town during the 2025/26 playing season and to prepare the ground for the relocation of the Huddersfield Giants in 2026.

Cabinet members will decide if either of the proposals should proceed.

Several Calderdale councillors say they have met with both parties but also want to hear what residents and the teams’ supporters think.

So they have arranged a drop-in session for Tuesday, March 11 so that people can have their say.

It will take place at The Old Library at Skircoat Green between 6pm and 8pm.
Councillor Mike Barnes, one of the Skircoat ward councillors, said: “Local councillors have met with both parties but we feel that it is important that local residents/individual supporters have the chance to have their say.

He said representatives from the interested parties will not be at the drop-in session but ward councillors will be there so that they can pass people’s views onto cabinet members ahead of the March 17 meeting.

Calderdale Council’s cabinet member for Public Services and Communities, Coun Danielle Durrans, said: “Although major financial pressures mean that it’s no longer possible for the council to continue the running of the Shay Stadium, we understand how important this facility is for people in the borough.

“We’re committed to securing a bright future for the stadium, with the many benefits that local sports teams bring to the borough.

"In discussing proposals for the Shay’s future, we want to ensure that we can provide a long-term solution that will inspire the proud clubs of FC Halifax Town and Halifax Panthers and support their on-field success. End.
