Absolute bullcrap!!!!!!
If Ted hadnt wanted a fee he would have been in the South of France.
What next???The normal "he saved us from relegation" or"theres no one else" crap.

| I am getting worried about what he will do when Blaymire is fit. We could have 2 full backs on the bench !!!
As for comments about laying off Kear. I appreciate with the mess we were in pre-admin the squad is limited, but he chose what we signed with the money available and he is the one who is making the task harder for the team by insisting on picking a full back on the bench and making some players ie Johnson do too many minutes and others like Amor not enough.
He has to take some of the blame for us running out of steam in the 2nd half for the last 2 weeks having kept ourselves in the arm wrestle after 40

| fair enough his team selection recently hasn't been the best, but he has lead us to great results this year with the squad we have (hull, catalans, even warrington). and did he say he wanted to go to catalans? no he didn't, he said he had a job to do and was going to stick to it!

Agree totally, last week 2nd half scoreline 28-2, this week second half scoreline 28-6. Something that needs addressing if we are to keep competitive as I don't think we're that far off.

Yeah he did say that after the Catalan move fell through, he then threw his hat in for the Bradford job. Hardly Mr. Loyalty is it?

You having a laugh, I will never slag Kear off he has to play with the hand he is dealt, the state of the Club is down to bad managment and poor running for years, Saying that if Ted had not insisted on Catalans stumping up compo he would be sunning himself in the south of france by now, lets not forget his intrest in the Bulls job also.... not sure if thats "thick" or "thin"

| The so called selection blunder worked well today, with Murphy limping off we had the perfect replacement on the bench. I must admit though personally i would have liked to have seen Wildie on the bench instead of Vievers but Kear is coach for a reason and fair play to Vievers because i think he did well when he came on.

Who are you,his fairy godmother??
Explain why i have no idea?
You think its good selection policy to select a fullback on the bench and sacrifice a hooker?
Oh and you are way off the mark with whether ive coached or played.

Lucky was all it was. No other team goes into a game with a full back on the bench, would normally ask one of your other backs to slot in if required. A full back on the bench in ordinary circumstances is a luxury no team can afford

I was looking at some Wakefield match reports from previous years today...Kears selection of having a Winger/FB/Centre on the bench seems to be quite an occurance. V. Huddersfield in 2008 we had Blanch on the Bench....now thats pointless!

Didn't we have blaymire on the bench the other season or so against Leeds at Headingly? He was brought on after half an hour and everything had to be changed around to accommodate him again.

Having Blanch on the field or on the bench was pointless, for my money Wildie should have played and i do hope Ben gets a shirt next week.

Fitness, cost you this week and by all accounts cost you last week, the players you had on show are good enough you just don't last the pace.
Just an observation from an outsider

Yes but some players fitness seems to be affected from having to do more work than others because of the bench that Kear picks and the length of time some players spend on the field compared to others.

Yes pal...from my very brief research from reports we have had the following on the bench in recent times:
Blaymire
Blanch
Millard
Veivers
Petersen
With more than these appearing twice....JK, rightly or wrongly believes that is method behind this.

True and if you had 3 forwards on the bench you should have been fine, the injury didn't help you granted but Kear should be experienced enough to know when to interchange players.

I don't think we are as fit as we could be, that said it did not bother us at Hull, in fact they got stronger during the game, maybe its catching up with them.

Are you suggesting the timing of the subs is at fault?
