Pound to a penny say his views on franchising won't change after next Tuesday!

is this fact or just another anti Glover ramble? its tiresome vasty and very predictable

Depends who his next job is with.

If Trinity do go down the best route to take is the Steve O’Connor way and not the Allan Rowley way.

Especially from the record of the clubs he has been employed with for signing players from outside the country they are based in. And convince me, had the winter we had not happened, we would not have a lot more imports in our squad. Far too hypocritical there.

Bit daft of him comparing Cru with Catalans. Catalans are based in a rugby league heart land for starters

Not half as tiresome as you old luv. Or are you seriously suggesting that James Elston calls the shots whilst 100% shareholder and employer of Mr Elston gropes about not konwing what he thinks. It's not anti Glover as you laughingly call it, it's reality - chack it out sometime.

Stopped reading after that bit , just shows that clueless people are running the game

Glover = good cop, Elston - bad cop.

He probably back-tracked when he started to think "Korki, Rinaldi, Hendo, Morrison, Smith, Hickey, Tony, Tadulala - I better not go there !"

Indeed.

are you seriously thinking you need to use a public forum to inform us who calls the shots ? you love of using the man who displaced that fella before is tiresome . we know who does what and what clogs turn where.

do you expect befor the decision is immanently due for the bloke utmost responsible for it to slate the decision makers?

lets just cross fingers together you can blame whoever next week and im sure you will, whilst at the end of the day we all got warn a long time ago about this.

Indeed, this dewy eyed opinion that Glover is some kind of bewildered do gooder thwarted at every turn by the evil RFL is becoming ludicrous.

I don't know AG's plans/agenda though I have an idea. What I do honestly think is he took us on knowing the situation and had pretty much decided very early on what he was going to do with the club and had been negotiating accordingly ever since.

All I will say is that the squad has been consistently stripped of it's most expensive players all of whom were not replaced, most notably Ben Jeffreys. Followed by the ending of contracts this season with Morrison, Rinaldi, Korki, King and the departure of George and Murphy. This basically leaves us with

Championship team. Make of that what you want.

Mutley, please feel free to over react and totally ignore a fair point.

Do you ever read what is posted - no I don't, that's what I said - hence Elston is doing exactly as he's told by not rocking the boat

yes.

Fat Faced Fan,

That achievement is distinctly possible... if the 100m was down a hill and we all got together and rolled him down it.

Lets just see what he actually thinks after tues when he can come out and say 1, what a bunch of ******* at the rfl or 2, told you the rfl would look favourably upon our well put together package.

The yorkshire post article very well put by Mr Elston. Everytime ive heard this guy speak I have been impressed come on its not a easy job. I know what a good idea is lets slate the RFL like mad before Tuesday and lets see where that will get us... Come on chaps use your loafs. Vasty you are still caught up with the most hated figure in Wakefield you have got to let your love connection with Ted and his Marks And Spencer suits go.. Come on Vasty its over move on find another lover!

Regardless of who loves who etc the message contained in this article is that we have not got the worst application of the 14 clubs, instead of fighting amongst ourselves we should be shouting this message to anyone who will listen over the next few days. www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/s ... _1_3591561

I'm never quite sure how Elston isn't tagged as part of the old regime. He's still the puppet, just Glover pulls the strings now not Richardson. What's his background and his qualifications other than having played the game? If we questioned Di's role, why not him.

Being a good talker and spinning stories…he's just Richard Wright isn't he but without able to convince as many?

which of course can be duly dismissed as a subjective judgement of somebody that hasn't read them all and with a vested interest in our being a success.

what a way to run a sport.

Its always puzzled me too, hooker turned Marketing Manager (I think), promoted to Cue Card reader (sorry CE). Im sure theres many ex players out there who would love to have a CV like his so quickly.

Same applies to his wife, Castleford Tigers dancer come Zoo Magazine model. Moves to dance with Wakefield allegedly had a fall out with many of the other main girls from many years ago who left because she was favoured in all the main decisions (maybe had something to do with her relationship). And then becomes Community Manager or something.

However before anyone has a go, Im not having a pop at her as far as I understand she does a really good job in her role. Just feel if we do get kicked out, they will both depart the sinking ship to pastures new without a moments hesitation.
