Ask the fans #4: Pepe

Pepe was suggested as the next one to undertake the probing, (fnah fnah!), by littlerich and replied to my inane babbling with some really great insights.

This week, the wee man took up the gauntlet as the next in line for scrutiny. Read his musings and news about his message board romance here.

Just to alleviate the boredom of the close season a bit, I have resurrected the interviews for a limited time only due to a suggestion from Marillion Man. As he suggested it, he becomes my first victim.

M.O.M. Rd:10 v 'Haven 22/6/08
Posted by Tortured Soul on June 24 2008 - 20:54:19
With the four new signings on home debut things could have been so much different. By that, I mean that you would never have guessed that two of them hadn't even played alongside their team-mates before this game. It could have been a nightmare for Fax had they not clicked, but Matt Calland and his coaching team have made sure that the seventeen players that took the field against a recently resurgent Whitehaven side that boast a massive pack were ready to meet all-comers with a tenacity that is improving every week. Anyway, you voted Richard Varkulis the outright winner by a country mile, with the returning Ben Black and fellow new boy, Mark Flanagan in second and third places respectively. This was Varks' best game for us this year, and he played with a ferocity not seen from him this year. Blacky's passes were sublime, and Flanagan looked as though he'd played alongside his team-mates for years; he fitted in that well.

Well done all, and more of the same at the Willows on Friday, please.
Geoff Robinson interview
Posted by Tortured Soul on May 26 2008 - 18:01:29
It's been a long time coming, but, believe me, it's worth the wait! Fax Missionary conducted his interview in two stages due to Geoff's coaching commitments, and has added some photos from those occasions. I hope you will find this interview as captivating as I did, as I believe it far surpasses any of the offerings I have submitted. I bow down to you, Mr. Missionary.

Rd:5 M.O.M. away at Leigh
Posted by Tortured Soul on May 01 2008 - 20:04:57
Who'd have thought it, eh? Being hammered 36-10 at one point by a twelve-man Leigh team, and then making the comeback of all comebacks, (for a Halifax team, anyway), to win 36-42. Of course, if you believe the Leigh fans, the ref and a certain TJ won the game for Fax and not the tenacity and never say die attitude of those playing for the visiting team. OK, Leigh had a man sent off, and that will take its toll on any side, but Halifax were down to two subs following high shots and other injuries. Swings and roundabouts, fellas. Anyhow, down to the nitty-gritty.

It would appear that James Haley has well and truly recovered from last years serious injury and taken his chance in the centre spot vacated by the injured Mike Ratu to take his third fans man-of-the-match award this season. Keep it up, James.

He is followed by the livewire hooker/half back Sean Penkywicz, who just gets better and better. he will be missed whilst out with a scaphoid injury.

Miles Greenwood has come in for some stick from the messageboard users in his first season with Halifax, but turned in a performance against his former employers that earned him third place with your votes. Can't wait to see him play on a dry pitch for a change; I'm sure we haven't seen the best from him yet.

M.O.M. v Featherstone Rovers (h)
Posted by Tortured Soul on April 16 2008 - 20:42:02
This weekend's game saw a drastic change in the backs after the double debacle against the Celtic Crusaders with Miles Greenwood moving to full back and Shad going to loose forward. In came Gibbo, James Haley, and Lee Greenwood, with Varks retaining the other centre place. After seeing Ratu and Goddard behind me in the queue at the burger van before kick-off, I feared the worst. And then, when hearing the team sheet without Andy Smith, I really began to worry. My fears weren't compounded until Fev ran in an equalising try just before half time off Southern's pass, (his only mistake I believe). Despair was in the air until, in the second half, the real Halifax RLFC turned up. Was this the same team that left the field only 15 minutes before? They immediately showed they meant business when they moved quickly upfield and Shad crashed over for his second try of three. It was all Halifax from then on, although dropped ball from both sides throughout the game meant that this was never going to be a classic. Mick Govin took home three stitches to a head wound as a souvenir, courtesy of Tony Tonks who received a sin-binning for his troubles. Truth be told; all in all, it was a normal roller coaster ride for us Fax fans.

1st - James Haley, 2nd - Shad Royston, 3rd - Mick Govin.

I've nothing that I really want to say about this game. Nothing, that is, that can be repeated where kiddies might read it. Oh, well. Onwards and upwards. Your votes gave it like this: 1st - Paul Southern, 2nd - Mick Govin, =3rd - Miles Greenwood & Dana Wilson.
