Dave craven putting a negative spin on a bulls related article. Who'd have thought it

Welcome to yesterday PAC..

PAC keep up lad, this is today's fish n chip paper

Meanwhile in other news, Montgomery is doing well at Alamein

Can't see Monty keeping it up for 72 holes though. He'll never win a classic.

I think history records he DID win that classic........

...and there were far more than 72 holes when they'd done, though after a good sandstorm you wouldn't have known they' been there.

So notwithstanding the ironic put downs, or indeed the absence of any real substance in the article itself, is there a tinge of concern that Carvell may be seeking to bale out? Or is it just wishful thinking by fans of those clubs who missed out first time around, hoping to have a second chance of signing him up? (vested interest declared!!!).

There have been two posters on our own website suggesting he is desperate to get out of the deal, but I can't see how they know (he is a good mate of Jon Clarke but that doesn't mean much). Certainly the article in the Yorkshire Post is a bit lacking in hard facts.

I suppose its a wait and see situation, he is currently contracted to you for the next two years and I guess that is how it stands until or unless something happens to change it!

I'm not worried, I'm sure everything will be fine.
I mean, it's not as if Carvell has a history of changing his mind at the last minute....right?

Unfair comment that Northus... especially if you knew what exactly went on at Hull during those contract negotiations. I would bet my house that he won't go to Widnes for one of the reasons he left Hull in the first place.

Spoke to someone who knows him well and from what I can gather he's just keen to clarify the situation, especially in light of all the negative press that the club has been given.

Fully expect his to be wearing RAB next year but as with anything... who knows???

Wasn't suggesting that we would be favourites to sign him if he did pull out of his contract will the Bulls (I assume that he rejected us before signing for you anyway, but again I dont know for certain we were in for him). Props of his quality and experience are few and far between, so I would expect a flurry of activity should his position change and we are always very cautious with the purse strings. If there is some baggage (presumably with Mr Rule) then that clearly will not help our cause!

carvell deffo wont be with bulls nxt year!! shame u put so much faith in ok! and as i understand still no business plan put forward!

I wonder which club idiot tarmagrace supports.

Which club are we trying to deflect attention from today

So 3000 season tickets sold so far. If Ryan is happy with that number, and is ahead of their expectations, then fair enough. He is certainly in a better position than me to judge.
I'm a current ST holder - my entire family are for that matter - and we haven't had any correspondence from the club asking us to renew our STs yet. Fair enough I get the odd generic email, but surely my details must be on their records somewhere and I should be red flagged as a current ST holder who has yet to renew - why aren't they hounding me to buy a 2014 season ticket?
No phone call, no mail shot, nothing.

Now in my case it doesn't really matter because I am definitely going to renew, but how many other current ST holders are out there who are still in two minds that could be persuaded if they received a quick phone call from the ticket office or a letter in the post?

I appreciate that mail shots don't come cheap, but I'm not sure that articles in the t&a are enough marketing alone to do the job.

Why has RA&B suddenly become so attractive to the stranger end of ne'er do wells and know nothings over the last few months? Are we doing promotions in the Fortean Times or something?

When you're in the poop you attract the flies.

Well, yeah, there is that, I guess, though do you ever wonder why fools and fanatics are [ialways[/i soooo certain when wiser people are never quite so sure?

There's been a bit of a cock up on that front. When I went to renew my season ticket this week, I mentioned that I'd not been a ticket holder this year, but had previously and the girl in the ticket office said they've had a new system which means they've lost the old database of fan data. Which is probably why they wanted as many people as possible to complete that questionaire.

Funny how the op is telling cas fans to focus on their own team over in wakey forum.

Take your own advice!

Claims wtw are in a better position than us. It's not us that's selling our best halfback pal!

Unbelieveable

Yeah, they didn't seem to grasp my subtle joke about the pot calling the kettle black.

not really. IT systems were provided by NAK (peter hoods company) prior to administration and they were one of big creditors to lose money.

we will see!! is it 3 months on the bounce your players havnt been paid on time?? just wonderingicon_smile.gif

So your a Wakefield 'fan'. Kind of explains one or two things doesn't it.

Have you bought a season ticket for next year yet?
