| I hear Ken Davey is about to pull the plug, I hear he will cover the cost of present contracts then your on your own. Tough times are coming if true. It’s quite clear that you do have some big off field issues, maybe this is related to Uncle Ken puttting his wallet back in his pocket?

No off field issues of substance now.
Wow. Funny you 'hear' that. the talk after the game last sunday was that Glover has serious doubts about continuing beyond this licence period. The cost of running wakefield is proving far higher than he expected and the recession is not helping his business. apparently putting so much money in and being nowhere near the play offs has been a bit of a shock and the prospect of having to find more to get in the 8 is not too appealing. What have you heard?
So lets see who has the sticking power.

Events don't seem to show that! I suppose the off season recruitment will give a good indication. I don't know how wealthy Ken is but a large chunk of his personal wealth must slashed up the wall now, it must be very demoralising for him.

| With signings like Tommy Lee and Brett Ferres you have to question the recruitment policy in recent times. Tommy Lee the worst half back in SL last season shows no sign of improvement at hooker, who the hell sanctioned that one. Ferres average at best, downward spiral for you boys I'm afraid. Send Mr Brough back to where he belongs, you know it makes sense.

| After the outlay for stadium improvements Glover actually stated that we made a profit from his short time in charge.

Oh dear a reference to events and 'supposing' about the off season recruitment. You apparently have sources that know about KD but not Glover.
In a bad year we will scrape into the play offs and have had a CC semi....a bad year.

How much has Glover put in in total and what profit has been made? How much more will be required to get you in the top 8 and how much more to compete for silverware.

Maybe what I've heard isn't true...maybe it is, thats the reason my OP was stated as a question. A couple of seemingly ITK posters on here suggest they could be some truth in it. Like I said earlier we'll have a look at the quality of recriutment in the off season, that should be a good indicator.

That's why you stated it in a question... Pitiful.
Please name the ITK posters who know KD is packing it in. That way we can have a good laugh at them when it is proven to be nonsense.
Re Glover the chat was that he was very disappointed that all the money had been pumped into the club to improve just a couple of places. Would anyone blame him? [please note the question mark Pitiful.

Judging from the Smile on Glovers face last night he certainly look very happy with his return on investment. Compared to KD his outlay is miniscule! One year into Glovers 10 year plan and things are quite on track. Glover has backed his commitment up with another great value season ticket offer for next season!

Your repeated reports on KDs 'despair' illustrates your infantile desperation to indulge in 3rd rate gossip.
Wow, club chairman smiles when his team win a game. Who'da thought it! Truely truely amazing.
I have never doubted Glover will see out this licence period. But the talk remains that it is costing far more than anticipated and the improvements on the pitch have been minimal. I note you say Glover is doing a 'BradfordBulls' with back to back low price ticket offers..oh dear

| Looking at their pricing structure for next season there is alot to be said for it and might well be how we can bump our prices up to a more realistic level without losing most of our season ticket holders but as we still do not know how the club intends to play it we just don't know.
And criticising Wakefield for doing what we do is slightly strange both in having a wealthy backer and trying to boost their season ticket sales but you obviously have your reasons.

If that point is aimed at me you have a learning difficulty.
Where have I criticised Wakefield for having a wealthy backer? Not just on this thread..where?
Also KD has done single season special offers not back to back offers (like the Bulls). Sorry if you cannot grasp that fact.
If you do not like me challenging a witless wakey troll peddling rumours about KD...tough.

Do explain where I have criticised wakey for having a wealthy backer? The way you resort to making up what other people post shows exactly how limited you are.
