kmacphee Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 This is very positive. I like how the proposed league and potential owners group are involving/reaching out to the fanbase early on. The level of public awareness that is being created in Halifax relative to other potential cities is mainly due to this being a new organization, whearas the other markets presumably are working from an existing structure. ie existing CFL team.

BradMack Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Stadium plan is now presented, and a new website with a subscription option for updates. Interesting that it is named Halifax FC.... But I suppose they had to call it something for now, probably not the final name but on the shortlist for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
