No just that you keep destroying thread after thread and that you are getting increasingly childish, stop trying to ruin this forum for everyone else and grow up. If you want to have petty squabble after petty squabble use the pm system and let the adults talk about rugby.

Lets get back to backing our team in the public enquiry and save the arguement for when we play them next and when we have a stadium.....whichever comes first

I understand your frustration, but you're mistaken if you think that the malaise infecting this forum is my fault; that's just silly. I may be awesome, but I'm not that influential.
Part of the problem, in my view, is that there seems to be a 'is it because I is from Cas' culture amongst your more regular and forceful posters, such that they've cultivated a huge, collective chip on your shoulders - the result being a kind of belligerent siege mentality, where anything other than mindless agreement with the party line is described as trolling or derailling.
On top of that, I think that you have a very similar problem to the one we had towards the end of Ted Richardson's reign; you all know it's unravelling a bit in the boardroom, but the club insist on giving you the mushroom treatment. If I were in your shoes, I'd be equally outraged and frustrated by the empty and vacuous procalamations that RW makes on a regular basis - he is a master of using lots of words to say nothing at all and appears to be quite happy to treat the fans of CT like idiots; you deserve better.
When it comes down to it, the majority of what's posted on here in the off-season is banter; from recent experience, I do realise that the sense of humour can temporarily desert one when it feels like the club is teetering on the brink, so I understand the adverse reaction to some of it.
With the exception of RW's recent egregious intervention in the PI, I have no real issue with CT outside of a perfectly normal sporting rivalry; please don't make the mistake of taking all this stuff too personally or too seriously. For my part, if I've got a bit carried away with some of the less constructive stuff at times, I apologise for that.

So you try to say your not trolling by trolling some more? wakefield fans have always been welcome to post on here and have banter the crap that you keep posting is not banter or reasoned discussion.You even stooped so low as to mock an autistic person this week, have you no shame? I don't know if your too stupid to realise or too pathetic to care but your destroying thread after thread on here. Sometimes i have opinions wakeys fans wouldn't like, i dont go shouting them round your board, creating arguments and destroying threads because its pointless and pathetic if everyone does it the whole of rlfans, which was once a place for supporters to enjoy sharing opinions about rugby, will just descend into the petty point scoring schoolgirl crap you seem to adore so much, you need to get a life. The sad thing is that of the hundreds of people that use and browse this forum a handful of pathetic individuals that only care about scoring points and having petty little squabbles will ruin it for everyone hopefully the mods will take note of all the thread derailment and ban yourself, neverdid, g.price fan club and scabbycat which will instantly improve this forum 100%.

| You seem to be amalgamating all of your frustrations and attributing them to me; I wasn't, example, the poster who took someone to task about their spelling and grammar earlier this week.
Oh well - I tried to reason with you, but your overblown and dramatic response has rather proved my original point; I'll say again that I think CT deserve better than what's currently being served up by RW, and I hope you get it.
Bon chance.

Sorry i got you mixed up with one of the other trolls.
And i'll say again this is a forum for rl not for your pathetic little point scoring and squabbling.

| I've just been reading Twitter.
Seems like they've spent more time speaking about Cas, GH and even WR at today's public inquiry. Apparently, one of their 'witnesses' was 'forced' to talk about WR and GH, openly stating high degree of uncertainty over WR for retail use and how they cannot consider that as planning hasn't been lodged and we have no funding.
Two faced? Why didn't they decline to comment as RW should have done? They have no place to be discussing our stadium plans like this. Surely they could have said "we are not in a position to comment about Cas's stadium plans but it is not built as of yet" but left it at that.
I expect a retraction from all Wakey fans...

Two points:
1. Maybe it was said because of RW's intervention; ie, RW created an issue that they were then forced to respond to.
2. It does nothing to prevent GH going ahead or speaks out against it. It does not in anyway try to object to GH. The PI is dealing with Newmarket. If there were pro-NM people saying those things at the GH planning committee meeting, I would agree, but they are not.

Why is it great news (avoiding the obvious point that you haven't been the "main" topic at the PI)? Wishing it will fail for what reason?

I think you'll find that your own Chairman created that situation, with his ill-considered and clumsy intervention into the process; he handed LCC's barrister an excuse to focus on the 'why don't you share at GH' argument, that our man was forced to rebut and by all accounts, he did so quite robustly.
Not sure how else he was meant to handle it to be honest Fully.

It was so silly I thought you were being facetious; he'd be professionally negligent not to rebut the points made by the LCC barrister.
I realise you're trying to liken it RW's intervention - even for you, that's clutching at straws.

| Always great news Slugger - Theres not such a thing as bad publicity.
I'm interested in the overall attention that RL (and in particular the amount of time CT have been discussed) in the PI. After all the stadium is only 5% of the overall build isn't it ? If so, its going to be a very long inquiry.

..........................................sent back to his own forum with half a dozen other fellow fans that seem to have a lack of understanding where there posts belong and where they are welcome.
This thread was started by a Wakefield fan, replied to by a Wakefield fan and has created far too many pages of pointless bickering and point scoring attempts to bother counting, it has now spread accross several threads upsetting several people and on one in particular poking fun/extracting the urine from a poster with a disability - sad/childish/pathetic/moronic call it what you please !
Being fair i must admit that the lack of topics on here in the off season has been as active as our recruitment so it has sparked some form of a response from people where not much was forth coming but how much more do we have to tolerate before saying its no longer worth bothering anymore ?
I dont mind fans discussing varied topic on each others boards even happy to see different opinions and views, that people are grown up enough to agree to disagree on. I enjoy a bit of light hearted banter with rivals and it would be a sad place if that was to be no more.
I wish Wakefield well with there stadium just as i hope ours comes to fruition too. I will never be happy after losing a game between us but would also be sad to no longer be in a position for that battle to take place in the first place.
I would never like to share a ground, be a Tinity Tiger, and would be more content in the national league than either option being a reality. I have no ambition to be a joint super league super power, my enjoyment comes from the struggle and the battle. winning the games you dont expect against the top teams and your biggest rivals whislt going through the ups and downs of being a CAS fan.
I feel RW should have declined to comment on any issue regarding the PI unless anything had or was having a negative effect on our club/position, at this point it is business - he did not 'start' this problem, he was asked a question and chose to give a factual 'Cas Bias' reply (did RW make any negative comment regarding NM) ! did you complain at anti Cas comments made by AG prior to franchise decisions - i doubt you gave those a second thought.
Time to move on and concentrate our efforts on keeping our own houses in order and looking forward to the season ahead with some of the best youngsters and one of the best players in the competition, if Wakefield fans have an issue take it up with the person who upset you - this almost makes you want to spend time on the Salford forum to cheer you up !
