| Quote ="TRB"I know you're not saying 'it IS over', but I would challenge any individual to go and stand in front of the players, John Kear, Paul Broadbent, Ted or any of our directors, and tell them that the season is over.
The season is long since over - but it is challenging. No one expected the Newton thing; no-one thought we'd be without Paul Johnson and no-one (well a lot of folk) expected Paul King to have played just a few minutes - yet we are 6th in the table, have beaten LEEDS at home for the 1st time in god knows how long and are about to bring one of the best long ball merchants in the game to the club!!!!!
FFS come on guys. The club didn't choose any of these issues - but they are doing their best to make good and prosper - in spite of them. If the club was run on the attitude shown by some people in this thread, then we would have reason to pack it all in. Day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year - it's a bloody struggle to survive - yet we do - and flourish!
Chappy - shake yourself down under a cold shower and force yourself to smile - you will soon feel the glow of being a member of this wide and varied family and the fight will return to your body as if it never left.
No single player was ever better than this club or it's supporters!
We are Wakefield, no-one likes us, and we don't give a "£$%!

I think the most defo thin in the world is that your suggestion will not happen. Why would Hudds give Wakey a player or any money and loan Brough back to secure DB's services at the end of the year when it's Danny's choice where to go at the end of the year NOT Trinity's - he's OOC. Perhaps you are "the king of wishful thinking?".

| I have read all the comments on here about Danny Brough, some I agree with and some I don't. Let's not forget although he is a quality player he is not the god some people make him out to be. When we signed from Cas many people posted on her I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole or similar statements meaning the same thing. Whilst he undoubtedly has one of the best kicking games in super league and can turn a match, he is only a good club player. As far as international honours go, he played for Scotland (because he can point to it on a map) had a decent World Cup and began believing he was good enough for the NRL (in his dreams). As far as the Four Nations last year was he selected? No, not even in the train on squad. He was behind an 18 / 19yr old kid who played half a season at a team in the bottom two. So while yes it is a shame, it's not the demise of Wakefield like the doom and gloomers like to think. We as a club will live on for years to come and Brough will become a distant memory.
At the end of the day no player is bigger than the club. People have named some great players who have left the club over the years, some not with us anymore, but most of them left for the right reasons. Brough has tried to hold the club to ransom and I (although not a fan of the Richardson family) believe they are right to get rid now and look forward to the rest of the season rather than carrying a disruptive influence who doesn't want to be at the club.

| I saw the headline 'Brough for Galpharm' - instantly I said we should go with that deal, we then have a stadium suitable for SL, and force Hudds into needing to merge with Quins or someone else to carry on. Bonus!

| IMO Brough on his day is a match winner and when the team is playing well he really shines, however I think sometimes when everything is not going his way his attitude can have a negative effect on the whole team. I'll certainly miss watching him play, but the team comes first and I don't believe like others have said on here that the season is a write off 6 games in to it. We are not a one man team and I'm sure JK will challenge the players to show this is not the case and life goes on without Danny.
We have a fantastic crop of youngsters coming through, Cooke to come in (with a point to prove) and with the brass we are saving from Danny's hefty wages the opportunity to bring in a new player or two. I'm sure JK will not be entertaining the prospect of letting DB go if he didn't have something up his sleeve. So plenty of reasons to be optimistic.
Chin up boys!

| I think some people may be overlooking what a set ot ts Shudds have been in all this. They have come in yet again and got to one of our players before a ball had even been kicked this season. they have got their man for next year and didn't give a toss about anything whilst they were doing it. They got found out and I think they have tried to cover their tracks by saying they want to sign him for this season.
My worry is that they will now pull out of the deal, leave us with an unsettled player and just sit back and wait for next season. I have said it many times before, just remember how the screwed up Griffin. The last thing we want is to be left with DB on our books behaving like Griff did that season.

Something similar was posted on the Huddersfield board. The thing is whether we will do anything about it if the deal doesn't go through now.

| This is all Marc Bosman's fault, in the good old days we could have just stuck him on the transfer list and started a bidding war and not cared when his contract ran out

Yes I would hope we would if it all ends up a bad deal. Even if its hard to prove I would like to make as much of a stink about it as we can so they may at least think twice about doing it again.

If watching old men do that is what floats your boat i am sure that there are some specialist websites you could find to alleviate your frustration.

I think you need to re-read your post. It wasn't his feet you wanted to see move.

I hope you'll be wearing your glasses. If you get that stuff in your eyes it messes with the pH balance and can blind you.

Think about this.....of what benefit is it to WTW to announce that DB is in talks with Hudds?

As other people have alluded to, maybe there is a deal to strike for a player who Trinity will lose for nothing in the autumn.
