Basically he is getting ed off that he has invested his own money and not been able to buy his way into Super League so far. Now he is claiming other investors have come in and threatened to sack everyone if they dont finish in the top four of SL within "a few years". The man is disillusion, I really think we dodged a bullet when he left us. Yes if these millions are true then that is good for them, but I have heard some of the stories from his time at Fax and I believe it is all nonsense.



P.S. If these new squad members he speaks of are brought in with blatant disregard for the salary cap then the RFL must take immediate action and expel them from the play-offs.

Couple of things, I'd that the right 'vein' and it looks like it's Sky along with the RFL who now make the rules, no surprise there I guess.

Faisal would take getting thrown out of the play offs if Fev make top two as they are second to league placings this season

"There are no egos at Featherstone Rovers, just pure grit and determination to succeed."



Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, failing all of the above, spend spend spend

I have to agree with the fact that having 10 or 12 small businessmen who are willing to put their money into a club makes far more sense than having one money man as when he walks away you are left in a mess .However not sure it would work in the same way at Fev as it does at Leigh as he would still want to call the shots wouldn`t he .

I also noticed he had used the wrong "vein " that spelling is about blood vessels and such and could imply "blood letting" where as "in vain" means to no avail or without success. Oh hang on a minute maybe he used it to cover all eventualities .

Could it be Koucash on the prowl again?

Ambitious plans. Well see I suppose.

Fev's dominance and performance on the field the last few years has to be applauded. Leigh this year have set their stall out to dominate when it matters. But my concern is that neither have the scope or catchment area to have the crowds to be anything like a force or even compete in Super League.



No disrespect to Fev but I dare say the club and its social facilities are one of the main focal points of the town; and that is why they are such a force in the championship. But i feel there just aren’t enough people in the town (approx. 16,000) to see the massive increase that will be needed to support a SL team. As for Leigh the town is about 2/3 times larger than Fev but then is affected by Wigan being right on their doorstep.



In fax we have a population of about 5 times Fev, this doesn’t include the full borough of Calderdale which would more than double this again. But our problem is the competition from Huddersfield and Bradford for RL fans in the region. Our only hope would be the demise of one of these clubs whilst at the same time we become a dominant force along with some very good marketing as was the case with Bradford at the start of the SL era. But recent experience says we are not very clever at marketing and we are a country mile off being anything like dominant on the pitch.

We may be a much bigger town but nobody seems to give a damn. London Broncos have a massive catchment area but it is irrelevant if you cannot generate the interest.

Totally agree - no one does seem interested. With 2 SL teams within spitting difference then the modern glory hunting RL fan will go there instead. And even our diehards are dwindling away with the boring spectacle we have been served up the last few years.



The fact that Leigh and Fev are attracting significantly more fans as a % of population is a credit to them, although a winning team has somewhat helped that. I also think the community aspect has played a big part for Fev and is always likely do so in a small town. But will they increase crowds significantly enough in SL? If they can do that then it would be a great achievement and good luck to them.

Personally, I'd love someone at our club to throw their toys, say second in the league is not good enough and then secure investment to fund a push to top four in super league and tell the whole world he was on a mission. What a buzz. All eyes on Fev.



Better than sitting around doing nothing and hoping no one notices!



A bit of green eyed monster here, we'd love it if someone at Fax did this!

I like this part-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------





Majority Shareholder of Featherstone Rovers Feisal Nahaboo who is acting as advisor to the club has made the following statement.



Feisal Nahaboo said "Rightfully or wrongfully at the start of the season the club had made the decision to strike at the end of the season to prepare a Super League strength squad to compete next season. Following back to back defeats to Leigh Centurions we've realised we are no longer the dominant force outside Super League so the club has made the decision to raise the standards for all Championship clubs with imminent investment both on and off the field.





-------------------------------------------------------------------



I wonder when we receive our share of this raised standards??
