Thanks.

Although very frustrating that more players will have to be released or sold to balance the books.
Michael Carter's decision to keep James Elston is becoming more understandable. If JE has been given the task of reversing our plight that he possibly got us into. MC is making him do the hard yards, instead of what everyone has wanted by getting shut.
This difficult period of time will indicate whether JE is up to the job or just a talker.
Then you could have grounds for re assessing JE's position at the club and his commercial staff.

If your theory is correct, that's playing a very high stakes game, don't you think?

Just weighing up that when the going was good, JE was only too happy to spend the money.
Now is the time to see how good a commercial man he is. If JE had been given the boot, he would have walked away with no real damage done to him, just speculation that he was rubbish.

I have already bought my season ticket for next season and I will carry on with club 1873, but after 46 years of supporting Wakefield and playing at amateur for 20 years I've had it with rugby league. I have tickets for the world cup final and that will be the last game I will ever watch. I just cannot go through this again.

No stamina

And that's the point - we aim to make it so we don't have to. We will fight with all the might we can muster - but we will be aiming to ensure that this does not happen again!

PS Radio Leeds at 6.20 tonight (Friday 13th)!

Bugger ...think I've just missed it !

Fear not, he said the first 50 guys in get a free pint of him.

Anyone know what was said?

Anyone got a sleeping bag they could lend me ?

I remember after coming out of the CVA, it was said we'd now see how good the old Chief Exec was when he hands weren't tied financially.

Not much, he just explained the details of the meeting and the people who would speak at it.

More of a advert than owt else.

Well we have, thats very true.

Yep. Our own little Peter Ridsdales. I guess I should have known (and probably did 2 years ago deep down) that if it looks too good to be true it probably is. God knows how low we'll go. I can't really watch to be honest. Sickened

thanks Ray.

That's disgusting and I would imagine "quite draining".


I hope you mean a free pint OFF him!!

My bad.

Feel the same mate. I'm 50 now and, much as I love Trinity, I have to ask myself how much more of my time and money I am prepared to put into a club that seems chronically to attract idiots and incompetents. If I assess the chances we have had, I think the best one was when David Garthwaite was at the helm and wanted to take us to Pugneys. I think he genuinely would have taken us forward as a club but sadly the fans were not on board with that. Apart from that, we have been mismanaged for 40+ years and here we are again

We could do with some help and support from David, he's a smart bloke.

I think Ted's early years weren't that bad. The Pearman saga and then his Sainsbury's loss really upset the applecart.

Think we all might feel a lot better after this meeting, not saying its all going to be great by a long way which we all know that, well them who understand what we are up against, but we will have a club to follow next year and thats not bad, things will get better in years to come, just had a word with Mystic Meg and she told me, we must put our trust in Ned Carter and is gang

Moving to a new stadium at Pugneys was that the early 80s it would have been an excellent place for a new stadium, shame it never happened.

I've got more faith in you Baz

Its in the stars, crystal ball time, wakey's time
