Even though we are a [iespecially[/i bad patch at the minute I still believe that Kear is a top quality coach and one of Wakefield's best assets.
- However, I would like one of the posters [iin the know (cough) well - the ones who claim they do - the ones who come on the forum state things about having inside knowledge, but oooooo I can't tell you - look how important I am[/i to give some genuine insight into the thought process/situation with Brough.
When the DB was been mooted - I remember been quite shocked - with him we could push top 4, have a play off game, maybe win one,maybe make the cup semi, - play in front of some decent crowds despite the [ivery[i steep ticket price. Without him, drop out of the 8, became a glorified Harlequins, maybe finish 9/10th in front of abysmal crowds. All with franchise applications coming up. The prize money for positions alone, would have been significantly more than we recieved for DB - never mind the drop in gates.
While I don't think the 'board' have the nouse to realise this (i have an image of a [iBread[/i style family discussion around the kitchen table, mainly about M&S) I think that Kear probably did - so to alleviaite some of the frustraiton some of the fans are feeling - quite simply - what's the real story? I have heard the money rumours - but he was contracted to the end of the year - so what happened that meant we did not force him to see it out?
JK has done a sterling job in keeping us in SL. That will never be forgotten. But that is all now in the past.
Last season we blew it when we needed to step up to have a go at the Playoffs and this season we have gone from bad to worse.
JK must go. Enough is enough. He wanted out when the Catalans came knocking and in hindsight that would have been perfect for both clubs.
We need to freshen things up. Things have gone stale. Time for a change, a new man at the helm, new ideas, new coaching and fitness staff and someone who can get the best out of what they have, NL experience and someone who knows the NL and who can pick up some bargains to test themselves in SL.
