| Quote ="jack in the box"I know its not easy but I would have thought this would have been the best route to follow. You are about at the stage the last lot were about 12 months before it all folded. Selling players for transfer fees, money owed to HMRC, cheap players recruited just to turn out a squad. No one had heard about Andrew Glover, Steve Parkin or anyone else back then. They did not come out of the woodwork till the bitter end.
I can't remember how many clubs I have seen go bust over the years, even the mighty Wigan got close once.
However in every case someone always comes along when the time is right for them.
I can also add what has been done clubwise since the last liquidation has certainly made the club a much better proposition than it was back then.
Sorry I can't give you names.'"
All I can say is a few people are still working very hard with limited resources to make this work in a balanced way. I don't want to waste the money I've put in, neither do I want a return on it. I just want to try to get us to the new stadium as a super league club

I'm looking forward for the James Elston article tomorrow, I'm sure many people are.
If we want a new stadium we need to make sure we stay within the top 12 next year, if not it will take a while to get back into the top flight.

No one needs to know who anyone is, otherwise we would all have real usernames.

It's more to do with the fact that he was fantastic in the junior set up, played really well against Saints when called upon last year and then has not been given another chance to show what he can do, especially as one of the players who has had ample opportunities ahead of him has not proved to be in any way irreplaceable.
As I said before, Danny is home-grown, something we need to have in the squad, has shown plenty of heart and ability at whatever level he has been given a chance, but now we are going to lose him because he hasn't been given a decent shot at growing into the team.
I'd be willing to bet that he would also have been a cheaper option than some of the players who are in front of him and if we're looking at value for money then he provides better value IMO.
I can understand why he would want to go, if he knows he won't get a chance no matter how badly the players in front of him perform then what is the point in stopping. I'm just gutted that it has come to this and I think it will prove to be a bad decision long term.

I made that post because I care so much for the great club I have supported for so long.
Only concerned that someone may have been winding people up.
It matters to me.

The difference here to me is obvious.
No one else is claiming to be a board member.
Plus I never asked for the name of the person.
Only wondered how some people seemed to know 'Daddycool 'was a shareholder/board member.
Suppose I will have to accept he is.

I think Danny Cowling looks a good prospect. Not sure I'd say he had a bad performance in his last game, somebody on here posted he'd been dropped for 'shooting out of the line' and missing a tackle. Wish I'd a pound for every time a Wakefield player has done that this season! I don't know if he's going or not (I've not read all this thread) but I know he shouldn't be allowed to - unless of course it's his choice - due to lack of opportunity here!

I read that too, and thought "how weird". I thought he had a solid game up until the "shooting out" point (which I didn't see) too.

| Same here. He was the one Trinity player who looked like he could execute a textbook tackle. If the club are wanting to save on cash then let Lee Smith go and sign up Cowling to replace him.

| It was in fact me who said he shot out of the line and he did, more than once but he did it one time and was taken off. I didn't say he was dropped because of that, although he hasn't featured in the squad since.
