I thought Manchester was part of Leeds now. According to the Leeds CEO, Kallum Watkins is local and he's from there so I guess it must be.

| Quote ="craigizzard"Terrible the situation that Wakefield have got themselves in, and pretty low Hull and Huddersfield raping the carcass as the administrators asset-strip.
However...if we could work out a deal where we pay the administrators a fee for first option on Paul Johnson (the young one, not the old one), enabling the player to stay with Wakefield while they're in SL, then it would be worth thinking about. Assuming Peacock, Cross, Leuleui and Burgess will all be leaving in the next couple of years, we need a load of prop prospects, some of whom will make it some of whom won't, to come in alongside established players.
Having only seen him in the friendy and against Cas, Johnson looks a real prospect. I can't think of any other Trinity players who would improve the Leeds squad now or in the future.'"
Terrible what Huddersfield are doing ain't it, cos if we hadn't signed him the morally correct Leeds Rhinos wouldn't have !!!
What a joke, Leeds have been picking the bones of other teams for years but now you have other clubs on a level footing it all seems wrong.
It is sad what is happening to Wakefield, you would not know the feeling but we at Huddersfield do, the RFL should be ashamed allowing a club from the heartlands slowly die off while bending over backwards for some of the other teams.
Don't try to get all PC on us though cos if Obst and Ferguson hadn't signed for Hull and Huddersfield the Rhinos would have been sniffing round!!!
Tough you have missed out on another young talented Brit, whereas a few years down the line the Giants will be filled with em!!!
As for Wakey I hope all is resolved shortly and we can help by loaning some players ala last season.

I listened to an interview by Andrew Glover on BBC radio leeds the other night regarding his proposed/verbally accepted take over bid
When he was questioned about the coaching staff, he replied that they would all continue in their posts
If what you are saying is true, then this man talks with forked tongue!

Your comment has what relevance to this thread?
We were discussing Wakey ect in case you missed it? Looks like another decent discussion comes to an end.

They probably would have and might still do, but Andrew Glover does not control the club as yet... O'Hara does!

Surely the unprofessional matter was Glover not attending a meeting?
If the press asked O'Hara's why the sale wasn't progressing, what would you expect them to say?

Exactly, i know my boss is friends & works alongside one of the partners of O'Hara & Co and hasn't got a bad word to say against them.
If nothing was said and all went quiet about the takeover, Wakey fans would be fuming. O'Hara has explained the situation and everyone is fuming. What would you do in the same situation?

You are a professional firm of administrators, so keep your professional integrity and say only what you need to say. The only people that said he didn't attend a meeting where O'Hara's in a press report in the Yorkshire Post, that may be true and it may not, but why tell the press?

I don't see how giving an honest answer to a question put by the press is unprofessional, the adminstrators responsibility as I understand it is the the creditors not to prospective buyers who are releasing statements quoted in the same article which seem to be at variance with the facts.
To me that seems more unprofessional.
Maybe Glover isn't quite the knight in shining armour the fans all hoped he would be?
I don't know but I don't want to see the Wildcats just fizzle away.
Parkin walked, is Glover going to do the same because the position is even worse than has been previously stated?
Having to sell off the best players certainly isn't helping the club.
