Yep, I know some of the background to that, and it was my first exposure to the realities of the Glover regime. I was very shocked but I'll say no more.

As much as I sympathise about their predicament, I don't think there's any need to mention it in order to sell shirts. It actually made me not want to buy one of their replicas

Quite disgusting from the previous regime. Is this one of the CCJ's that have been settled now as they is no date to the website.

A heritage shirt is a great idea though as an additional source of income. Personally won't buy the replicas due to the polyester material but I would buy a shirt made from cotton like the one sold in 2012.

I am personally appalled by this, I bought one of these shirts in good faith for the profit to go to the Hospice and Trust I actually now feel deceived paying what I did.

As far as I'm aware the ccj hasn't been settled but MC made sure that the hospice got the money they were owed .
It all started from those shirts from 2012 & it's the same person trying to sell these now .
He's put a lot of time into it (& money) & the quality is better than that first run ( he did some 1979 Topliss style shirts & I ended up buying 2 as I didn't know if he'd bother again).

Well at least that's something. Hopefully the guy will be recompensed too.

Bit of a no brainer for the club to sell them tbh - he does all the work & they both share the profit ?
Way over my head

People need to see this, then when they decide to go all gooey eyed about what Glover/Elston did for this club they can see the True cost of it all.

Its not the first or last stunt they pulled but its the most disgusting.

My phone won't let me access the site what's the gist?

I was very vocal about the Richardsons and that I was glad to see the back of them, but actually think the last regime have done more damage to the clubs reputation with supppliers.

Pee poor from glover that. Suppose it's seen as normal from his perspective as a double glazing salesman to fail to honour an agreement

To not pay a supplier is bad enough but to not pay an Hospice C'MON



I hope they have a crap Christmas

Ted wasn't in the same league as these guys and I told you all that from the start. But we had what we had.

I don't pretend Ted didn't do some dodgy stuff but it was always at least in his mind for the sake of the club. Can't even imagine him contemplating that.

I'll raise you Cancer research and run for life, don't think they've been paid.
SE ran that fundraiser.

They're not coming out of this very well here. Its low to leave businesses high and dry, it's even lower to withhold money from charities.

Eyes well and truely opened.

I did try several times 12 months ago to raise some doubts about the way the club was going and got told off, apparently what i said was harming the clubs image.

I remember you saying and the tell tale signs raised my own suspicions, but I didn't expect this.

Yes you did.

However there is a real problem here that dogs us all.

Sad fact is that although it's AG and JE you want to expose whatever you do damages the name of the club as opposed to the individuals - it really stinks.

I don't know the complete answer I just know that exposure however morally correct is not always the right course - basically for me it just makes the survivors job (us) more difficult.

Honestly I feel for you and others as it's areally nasty stuff when you think about it, I was also struggling with it all be it different damaging information but chose to keep quite because I couldn't see it doing any good i.e. speeding up their removal.

Lets just hope this new bloke is straight and boring (in a good way).

No one expected this khlav mate

Its been hard at times not to say more and I respect you're view of saying nothing.

MC is not the new messiah for this club but what he's done has been done well and he is honest.
And for that I thank him and the hard working staff at the club.

That's what I was referring to, I don't want anyone to misinterpret wat I was saying, I'm as disgusted as anyone at the non payment to the hospice as I've had close family nursed there in their final days.

I know we talked a bit back and the usual tittle tattle can get distorted, some of the things I've heard I wouldn't like to repeat especially our friend Jason on here who we haven't seen post in some time.
I also had a pop at Baz in the way his initial post could do harm to the club in season tickets sales and other income when he mentioned about the troubles within the club finances, this wasn't in anyway blinkering the poor way that it was being run just more of fear that we could end up nothing but a name in history.

Reading this has just angered me more and I one wished I'd been more verbal, again we are having to start from fresh so the like of this crap publicity like this isn't going to give MC trustworthy start he needs from the fans and paying public.

What the Wakefield fans have done in the past supporting Brennan Rooney, Adam Watene, Leon Walker, Wakefield hospice and not forgetting our own little Leon and the cas girl who needed surgery has all been over shadowed by this disgraceful act.

Glover and Elston should hang their heads in shame

Disgusted as all other posters on here. I think that MC has to be proactive on this one with regard to public relations, because I feel that it will be in the media next week (Express at least) and he has to go on a damage limitation exercise with regard to WT and deflect the blame to the real 'guilty' individuals.
The other point is what we , as fans can do. For the retailer we could buy via the club shop the traditional shirts (with a guarantee to our supplier).
We as fans could also do our bit by raising funds for the charities concerned by the traditional ways (walks etc), but perhaps a match day/fund raising day when we play perhaps Broncos or Les Cats. I haven't looked at the fixtures, but if it is a few months away it could be organised in order to give the most beneficial effect.
Would someone like to pick up the baton with regard to thoughts/ideas?

Not sure if my legs could stand up to another walk but willing to try, we could use a wheel barrow for rest period
