| What works flogging double glazing won't necessarily work in rugby league. Not sure he'll learn this lesson nor will his number two tell him that.

| Just reading this thread and people are all, "don't believe the hype", "heard it all before" or "the biggest announcement in the club's history". Where in the tweet does it even suggest that there will be any hype or major announcements. All he says is we will make this week a big one. It's never ceases to amaze me who people can read something and make the context into anything that suits. Not every statement or comment has to refer to a major life changing announcement. Everyday people in every walk of life will make comments like this will be my best day/week or month ever, it doesn't mean that they are going to change the world. Let's get a little perspective people. It's a comment on a social media network posted a few hours after a shocking defeat.

Thats fair enough and you are correct about the wording and people getting carried away, however it also needs noting Andrew has made statements before and then nothings come of it.
Lets hope for some good news, large or small.

Agree. As I said last time, take what's said on social media lightly. In this case was Trinity even mentioned?

| whichever way you take this, reading the first two pages of this thread shows that last years optimism is waining fast and we are getting fed up of being in what looks like a rut.

| The 6 new players that Salford are about to announce include Mellars, Wood and Molloy from us + Chase, Clarke and Thomson from Cas. If that happens before the weekend we might be still in the game at half time!

What like you did with Washbrook last year and few others - go away and grow up.

He's interested enough to be putting his own money in every month to help pay the wages.

Washbrook not done a thing this year he can tackle but thats it, hes totally dead with ball in hand. ITs ok though I trust your judgement because you said Molloy will make it after 10minutes of him running up and down the touchline.

| Possibly what AG is not quite able to grasp is the passion and fanaticism of Trinity fans and the long years of suffering the Trinity faithful have had to endure.
After all he is , by his own admission, relatively new to RL.
Thus he can be excused to a certain extent the way he builds up our hopes.
Perhaps what he perceives as important and great positive strides forward are not such a big deal to us.

Sometimes the reverse may be true.
Things happen behind the scenes that we, as supporters, aren't bothered about but, they are essential to the running of the club.
Perhaps A.G has a management perspective, rather than that of a paying fan and that is exactly how it should be.
Personally I don't like twitter or facebook, although there are some (rare) occasions when they are useful.
If it's important, there will be a formal announcement.
Maybe, we should learn to be patient.

| He commits the sin of being relentlessly positive - that obviously doesn't sit well with many dyed in the wool miserable gits who follow RL, but that's clearly just the way he is.

I think it's somewhere between that and the other end. The hyping of the massive announcement being the lottery meant everything else is judged with suspicion, rightly or wrongly.
I just wish he'd never come out with the 'lifelong fan' or whatever the phrase was when he first took over that was obviously not the whole truth.

To be fair to him I don't remember him ever saying anything about being a lifelong fan. He said he was a Huddersfield Town fan but was new to Rugby League having only come down to watch when his daughter was part of some dance thing on the pitch.

Yeah, and that The city had been good for his business so he wanted to put something back into Wakefield. I think he's been quite open that he doesn't have RL ingrained in him.

Don't ever remember that happening, he was very open about his RL knowledge when he took over.
