No clubs have been told who's in or out. It has been reiterated though that one club is going down and superleague will stay at 14 teams.

Be great if we could kid ourselves that were true and wallow in self pity and indignation - but it isn't. Savilles will do their job and SL will abide by it. The issue is not with the decision it's how the criteria is structured, when it's decided and implimented. Sure people talk and most people have a very good idea what will happen - what's wrong is that there is no protection from the RFL for the assumed victim club from basically being asset stripped mid season and that can not be right or in the spirit of the game - there lays the corruption.

What organisation in it's right mind make s a decision like this mid way through a season, it's not rocket science is it.

It could have been worse. There was talk at one point of delaying the announcement a few weeks to see how the Crusaders/Wrexham fc situation panned out. Think this has been rejected now.

I've followed this sport all my life, I've watched Keith Smith dummy and spin to score a try in the CC at Fulham, I watched us at Wembley against Widnes, I watched all three of my older brothers play for the juniors and then the senior teams, I've been a GB schoolboy international then played for Trinity' all conquering Colts team, played in the Red White & Blue alongside Wally Lewis, Ray Price, Mark Graham & Steve Ella, been part of the back room staff at Wakefield, worked for the RFL on World Cup tournaments, watched my brothers win 3 Grand Finals as Coaches, watched them coach internationally and seen them win coach of the year and SL coach of the year, I've helped start the Supporters Trust, volunteered for the RNIB commentary team, now as a fully qualified RL coach and as a PE teacher who wanted to steer kids into the sport of Rugby League..........


In 18 days, I will sever ties with the game and walk away with little more than a brief backwards glance at the wreckage left behind by the franchise farce.

This sport doesn't deserve my attention anymore!

You should make a copy of this and send it to the RFL.

Felt like this for 18 month. Got tickets for sunday but I'm not up for it at all. I know Bigal or others will rightly say give your head a shake and support the lads and he's right of course. I'll not walk away all together but I'd be a liar if I said it was out of anything other than duty, the fun, joy and most critical hope has all but been removed.

See you at BV next year

Top post and I think you send this letter to the RFL or Rugby league express. I have said the same if we get thrown out im done with the game i refuse giving the rfl any money and will also keep my money in the pocket for great britain games !!!

aye - cos walking away will really help those juniors, that community, Trinity RLFC and the game as a whole won't it??
Get real. Life down here in the sludge might not be perfect owd cock, but know what?? I actually really enjoy the craic. I've had some right laughs at Barrow, Haven, Leigh, Chorley, Gateshead, South Wales etc. The lads n lassess I go with are a right hoot. There is life beyond SL and our juniors (we run 5 teams at Fev) need all of our efforts if the game is to stand a hope of a future.
Just cos you've got the lip out because you don't like the way the games going??? Dear me owd cock - have a word with yourself. We've all felt like that in the past - and trust me - at Fev we've had it a lot longer than you lot have!!!

Wakey will need all of your support if you ever have a hope of getting into SL again!

But hey ho - who am I to pass judgement. Walk away owd cock if you are so desired. But just have a look at exactly what that will to - and to whom/what before you do!!

I understand your anger - but don't get your intentions one bit.

I think you misunderstand my motivation for walking, it's not about the decision it's about the process and the damage it's done/is doing to clubs and the integrity of the competition as well as the reputation of the sport itself.

The Championship holds no fears for me, I actually enjoy the football played in that division more than that of SL and visiting Whithaven, Featherstone and Leigh would be a pleasure.

It's not even about Wakefield losing their franchise, believe me or not it's up to you but if Castleford go before Crusaders I'll feel exactly the same

Have you got the thickest skin of any land mammal on the planet, you certainly have more faces.

Why don't you write a similar letter yourself and send it rather than demanding others do it for you?

Also his post was so good he should use it you clown !

We are gone. OK, I will accept that. We started the race with both feet shackled and a blindfold on. We always had too much ground to makeup.
If the players are going as others topics suggest then I can understand that as they have to look after their futures, but, if as the last 2 weeks performances have demonstrated they have no intention of performing then have the decency to let me know and I will find something more constructive to do with my time.
My season ticket can go in the bin and I will come back and watch a Championship team that want to play for Trinity.

You're a great contributor on here and I respect your background in and knowledge of the game wholeheartedly, but this:



Is pure lunacy.

You've lost it man!

What's up, don't you like being picked on - lampooned at every opportunity - your every effort degraded by someone you don't even know - someone who seems almost obsessed with you, a stalker if you will?

Awful isn't it, could you ever imagine doing that to someone yourself

Zing!

Im no bully you moron you dont even know me you fool ! I am far from it .. You are the bully and the be littling idiot around here. I think its because you are seriously overweight most fat people tend to have a chip on there shoulder dont you ??

Do you really need help to understand what he is saying????? Surely not even you are that dense?


I'll give you a clue - Fullback who wears our number 1 shirt???

I'm embarrassed for you with that post, you belittle yourself, you need no help from me.

So you're no bully but you call me a seriously overweight fat man with a chip on my shoulder (rather than in my mouth one assumes) - do you not see the issue here?

I don't know if you know me or not, all though it's clear you think you do. So if it helps, a few years I was a touch overweight then in 2008 got to a very trim for me 14stone 9lbs (I am 6'2"icon_wink.gif. Unfortunately due to a serious illness last year after initially losing weight I piled it back on because I was unable to exercise (in fact I missed the last few games of last season because I couldn't actually stand up or sit down for long periods). Never the less I'm a bit better now and am starting to get fit again, it's actually proving very painful but hey. Anyways hopefully by next year I'll be at a healthy weight again which I hope will meet with your approval.

Remember unlike Hickey who you love and is also a touch chubby I am not a pro athlete, I just pack toilet rolls in a factory which is only light lifting.

Thanks

have a day off .... Make some serious points and all you do is criticise I am wakefield trinity I love the club but seriously i must give up this fishing I caught a 200 pound trout today and named it VASTMAN

.

If you will oblige me with the same, then it's a deal. I've made my point.

Give your head a shake man.

I fully understand Clans feelings and i understand what you have written, i think we all to some degree feel the same and that hurts and it will be hard to take if we get dropped under shall we say dodgy rulings BUT while ever a player wears a Trinity shirt and enters the field of play i will support him.

The swines won't break me although i will cancel my Sky and i will not support anything the RFL do other than support Wakey.

I'm sure SKY won't care and the RFL won't bat a eyelid but its my money and my call.

True enough, but I can't even have a drink to help me through it these days

I'll have a tipple for you, what a guy eh helping out like that

I don't have one on my shoulder
