Yes the team is improving but also ageing and when you look at the average age of the squad, a few will need replacing sooner rather than later

I've come on here in response to a Leigh fan who for some reason wanted to drag us into a a thread regarding your unsuccessful recruitment.
Your the one spouting bile simply because you know I'm right and clearly do not like the truth, as you say Leigh just like yourself are still in the progression stage and hopefully one day you both might progress to a higher level.

Well you're not right dickie head, So don't come on here spouting that cr@p. You're doing ok atm just like Leigh are. A few injuries in reverse order right now would show a significant difference in performances. Derek Beaumont is no fool,and he knows what is required what to bring to Leigh Centurions,and to have a better set up with academies, and youth progression for this great club. BTW- Do you know where you will be playing next season? It might just affect your fan base - Then what? - So you don't need to come on here sing about your future. Bye

Fight fight fight

Wot on abeyt pey?

Just one issue Mr Hokey Cokey we didnt lose that game did we our Academy goes from strength to strength now turnaround look at Leigh and support you club building an academy, you like us are in an area rich with talent that probably Wiganbsnap up just like it was over here with Leeds and Bradford but not anymore, thatscwhst its all about

Are you dumb or something? Did I not say we are in a progression stage? Or have you just come on here like dickie to do a bit of sing? The academy will come i'm sure and i do support it, i never said i didn't, read the post properly. It's going to take time to be where we want to be, but i'm sure we'll get there. We are having it tough atm , but we have to tough it out right now.

OK call me dumb you totally missed the humour in my post, actually I am not dumb as you refer to me but if you want to stoop to insults on debates feel free but count me out thanks.

They'll be in Coventry soon,small club, small town. Better off replaced by Toronto, at least people want to go there. Wakey
means passing Cas, not heading on to Bradford, Leeds or Huddersfield. Wakefield is a dump!

@REDWHITEANDBLUE .....

You are welcome to come here & talk RL anytime, in fact the vast majority of posts by Wakey fans seem quite well informed & though I might not have liked the tactics employed prior to the Q8's in 2015, I would most likely not be too upset if we used them ourselves if it meant survival (so I shouldn't complain).

There are many similarities I feel between our two clubs in terms of our standing with surrounding clubs, we do the best we can with what we have.

One might be best advised to review your own posts before calling into question the intellect of others.

Mr C's account is hijacked Ste..

Thanks and yes I do agree with you about standings, both are present in rich RL areas. As I alluded to we had to compete with Leeds Bradford Cas Huddrrsfield, Leigh with Wigan Sts etc. What Wakefield have done is invested into the Academy through various means and has clear pathways into the first team, fir young players we are now an attractive properstion, this is reflected in some if the players coming through. Leigh could do worse than lok at the model, speding big on sone players us not always the best. Sometimes though you have to do that Leigh is an example for this season you had to sign pkayers to compere and remain in SK which has to be the first goal,that doesnt stop building longer term wins in the background like academy development.

Cheers Atomic .....

Makes sense of the nonsense if true.

Well I ain't helping pay the ransom - quite entertaining in a strange way

Mr C is usually quite informative in his posts and provides an interesting insight into the game in general. I used to enjoy reading his views and speaking to him in person down at Leigh East, great conversation indeed. However I personally have not set foot in Leigh East since the shambolic way that club and committee treated a fellow club in Skirlaugh, so not caught up with him in person since. Anyway that is an aside.

Has Mr C actually confirmed his account has been hijacked then?

Those said youngsters' are now ready to challenge for a first team spot,=#FF0000 unlike your club who rely solely on recruiting over the hill cast offs, maybe when Degsy gets wind of them he might try and flash the cash for some of them after all it's got to be cheaper than setting up an academy.'"

Sorry B&B I'm sure I don't know. Maybe someone else who does come on here can elaborate. Good question tho.

Heard of a rolling contract.

The contract value in terms of the salary cap increases in value over the terms of the contract. It is used to attract RU players to the sport or ex RL players back to the sport. If for example a player is on £100k per year contract, the first year 50% of the value is counted on the salary cap. In the second year, 75% is counted on the salary cap. And in the third year 100% is counted on the salary cap. (Not sure on the exact percentages, but that is the gist of it).

Thanks C&W. Had read about such, but hadn't seen or retained the nomenclature - official or unofficial.

Nice to read some helpful posts on here. Let's hope it stays that way.

Bongser, Charlie is always ready to help and advise in anyway possible, and the service if free.
