Move down I think.

Elston if gave a job at the club should be in the beer bars because hes useless!!

The statement seems to answer most questions and if Elston is still in a job (shame on him for not having the dignity to fall on his sword) I hope he is at a level his skill deserve and is watched closely by those above him.
The chairman has said he has turned down a six figure offer for DK, but for this to be good long term we have to back the club.
Buy your STs buy your shirts, otherwise the next offer for our captain may not be able to be rebuked!!
Back your club!!

Got my ticket and I live in France.
Come on everyone else.

Can only agree with the majority....it's a sickener to lose your better players, but if it has to be done it has to be done......Smith was fantastic last year and has been a bit in and out this year......would have preferred him to stay, but you cannot turn down good money if we need the money like we do......

Us as fans HAVE to back the club in times like this.....the new Chairman certainly wouldn't have made a decision like this lightly.....he's every much a fan as much as the rest of us and knowing his sporting background, know for sure having to lose one of your better players would hurtand not what he would have wanted......he's put and lost his own money and time into trying to sort us out.....there is no financial gain to be made from this, just a sensible business decision......

The honesty in that statement shows us how desperate it's got, so we all need to back the club to the hilt in this crucial time.....

Fair play to Salford too.....you cannot knock them.....every club like us and them would love a rich backer to come in and go around signing other teams top players......wish them well......

The statement shows just how badly this club has been run and those in charge should be ashamed. Elston should be gone, end of. But fair play to the new guys honesty.

What that statement didn't say is how many memberships we have sold. We shifted 4500 last year and this years budget is 500 less. But only 1100 had renewed by the early bird deadline and the spread payment option take up didn't start quickly and ends today. Not sure a stuffing on tv against hudds and a defeat at home against cas is going to help that. And with Smith gone thats all i can see happening. Why could he not stay til the end of the season? Its not as if he can play for salford til next year. I hope it was significantly worth it but it won't cover the 400k shortfall. They'll be other departures i fear.

My season ticket is bought as i imagine are many of the posters on here. Its the floating fan that has jumped on the back of cheap tickets that won't like this and walk. And if they do we are gone. There's only so mich the same fans can do, we need new investors or we probably won't see next season.

Tim Smith sold with immediate effect....I assume that means he wont play against Huddersfield and Cas?

An open and honest statement from your Chairman.The WTW fans need to show their support for their club more than ever now and get behind the new Boss although to be fair the Wakey fans have always done that anyway so i wouldnt expect anything else.I only wish my club Salford had been so Open and Honest when we were going through the same thing and losing all our better players to keep us afloat.We were literally hours from going out of business when the Doc stepped in and i genuinely hope that the same sort of investor will come your way.Regardless of what anyone says SL need a strong WTW in the competition and i wish you nothing but good fortune.

It's OK coming out with these type of statements but at the end of the day we still have Agar in charge.

Very good statement. I think Glover did well with what skills he had, but maybe he was too much of a double-glazing salesman, in that everything was always great and big news being announced.

That's an excellent statement and although AG has my utmost thanks for what he did , the change has come at the right time.
I will now buy a ticket. Had there not been such a good statement I probably wouldn't have bought one.

That's just what we wanted an open and honest statement.

Clearly we are in a hole and now is the time to back Michael Carter and the Club. We as a Super League Club must have suffered more adversity than most but are still here. We will not go away.

We all need to support the Club in it's darkest hour but remember the darkest hour is just before dawn. I'm sure we are all feeling down at the moment but I'm sure we will come out of this stronger.

Hopefully the Club will now believe that TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER rather than just giving it lip service.

Glover has done an excellent job and there is no amount of gratitude that can overstate that thanks that are due to him.
However, it does feel that we have gone back in time 2 years.

Would it not be a good time to have a share issue again to raise funds?

Get the foxy bingo thing pushed to the max paying the tenner for people to sign up to get the 50 from foxy

Two ways of bringing in much needed cash

Maybe he didn't have the right people around him?

happy to hear the club respond in the statement today but would of liked a bit more openness earlier as I'd like to think we could of stopped the autumn sale

for me if more players are going let us know now and why

Heard this morning that JE has been moved down form CEO but still has a job at WTW. A few other things (don't shoot the messenger because I don't know to believe them or not) :-

1. WTW went into administration Friday morning - the sale of TS as held this off.
2. The players union (headed by John Wilkin) are involved and it looks like potential signings and those allready signed for next year have been put on hold.
3. Some of the current playing staff have not accepted the 15% pay cut - again this is been fought for by the players union.
4. The RFL has forwarded WTW with a loan of the sky monies from next season to the tune of 170K.

We don't need a 50k cheerleading wife in the club that will help save something.

Don't be too hasty, she might be the only thing worth watching next season!

Well we've never had one, its simply not true.

How about the £500 a time dancers? Most expensive match day lay out I'm told.

Good luck to Michael. Picked well with Chris. Have had dealings with him a lot over the years. Calls it how it is and is nobodies fool. Will not spend what we don't have!
