I'll do the obvious then.....

That'll be the first time in about 5 years then!!

If he wanted "fun" and did not like a regimented style then he clearly does not understand the concept of being professional. Wakefield are a club on the up under JK and have really progressed well. In recent years Bradford have been going backward and for me McNamara has not delivered as a coach. Scully - you've chosen your bed so lie in it.

I saw some footage of Sculthorpe on Look North the other night. He dropped his shoulder, stepped meaningfully off his left foot, fended an opponent and piled up one of the biggest plates of buffet curry I have ever seen!

Absolutely no class that young man and that, together with the fact that he was without doubt useless during his stint with us, is why I am more than happy that he is now Bratfuds millstone.

Oh you're right

I saw that on Look North too!

Bye Danny and all the best in the treatment room.

I can understand the bitter resentful attitude to Sculthorpe due to the way he has conducted him self at Wakefield and in the press, but as much as you might like to ridicule him for being a lump of lard he did have a good hand off and off load and that still commands respect as slow and cumbersome as he is

Carefull.

Apart from Danny Sculthorpe himself, does anybody really care what Danny Sculthorpe says or does?

I think the first two words say it all...much travelled.


Resign Kear now !!!!

I hope you meant re-sign!

Well said JK

Hit the nail on the head - hope the useless lump sees it too!

JK's reply to Sculthorpe is real quality, well done to JK to rising above it while adding a hint of sarcasm

well said jk..snowie are you saying he is a ?

swear filter works

Lucky for you - it does!

not at all but I do think hes strong in the tackle and has a good off load, that's why we got him we never used it to our advantage

i would love to see the gps readings, especially as sculthorpe would be sat on the bench.......

With a bit more effort to add to his undoubted skill Danny could have been a great player - I can't help but think that his attitude to eating, drinking and training contributed to his lengthy spells in the treatment room (but his diabetes needs consideration too - he deserves plaudits for coping with this debilitating condition). I've lost count of the number of times he would attract three defenders in the tackle and still look for an offload only for no-one to be there! But that doesn't make up for his shortcomings - injuries, lack of time on the field, poor defence and the penalties he's given away.

As far as Trin goes he's history - but I wish him well.

When we signed Sculthorpe I was pleased as I thought a fit and firing Sculthopre would have been a major asset. For whatever reason it never happened. I never felt he was fit enough, he always appeared a yard or so behind the pace of the game.

Players come, players go. he'll get over us and we'll get over him. Just disappointed he has to air his views on the eve of the new season.

Danny let himself down and deep down he knows it. It's a shame that a player who burst onto the scene and had obvious potential has never fulfilled it over a long period.

Personally i'd have thought Danny would be over it and looking forward to a clean slate and a big challenge ahead of himself. His focus should solely be on proving to his team he is a valuable asset and letting his performance do the talking.

I don't see him being a good signing for Bradford, he's injury prone and a liability on the pitch. He needs a strong coach to ensure you get the best out of him. I don't see McNamara being able to handle him, although stranger things have happened.

I think that's a very fair comment. I don't think anyone can honestly claim we play an expansive game in the forwards. We are for the most part attritional, relying on hard yards, a good kicking game, and good defence. It doesn't suit the style of the Sculthorpes of this world in the main. That said, Kear was right to tell him to grow up. He was paid a very good wage and asked to do a job. If it didn't suit him, he could have left at any time during those 3 years, probably on a player exchange basis, and everyone would have been happy. Danny was happy with the coin he was earning, so he should accept he made the decision and button it, instead of making a complete prat of himself with his childish bleating.

very good post. i'm disappointed that my generally positive outlook on his contribution to wakey has been completely trashed by his pathetic childish outbursts, not just now but when it all kicked off. he's got something most other props haven't. at times we just weren't on the same wave length in the same way we weren't for solo. i reiterate what i always said when he was still with us, his driving in was underestimated he was hard to bring down

agreed. he's been a complete turd
