FC Halifax Town is facing an uncertain future as the sale of Shay Stadium is set to proceed following the council's decision. The stadium, which has been home to FC Halifax Town, is being sold to Ken Davy, owner of the Huddersfield Giants. The sale was approved by Calderdale Council in March 2025, and it includes a legal requirement that the stadium remains a sporting venue. This decision comes after the council announced plans to sell the stadium in early 2024 to boost their finances. The sale could mean significant changes for FC Halifax Town as they may need to find a new home ground. Community groups were given the opportunity to propose a purchase, but the deadline has passed without any proposals. The Halifax Panthers, a Rugby League team that shares the stadium, have expressed interest in buying it, but no agreements have been finalized. As the sale moves forward, FC Halifax Town's supporters are left wondering where the club will play in the future.
