Rightly, some people have questioned Trueman's worthiness of a contract given these injuries and he's jumped in to defend his future Wakefield teammate (hopefully)'"
Looking at the replies and quoted tweets, you can see his point

Well we announced his signing a few days after he got injured in what was ultimatley his final Cas appearance but yes I suppose we'd agreed a deal before the injury. However he only played eleven games in 2020 and eleven in 2021 with IIRC back issues so it was always a risky signing.

| I have never understood the bashing of players for being injured. Do people think they go out to sustain serious injuries on purpose? Do they think he enjoyed spending the last two pre seasons at a new club coming back from 9 month lay offs, training on their own in the cold winter months? Just to get grief when they unfortunately sustain another knock.
By all means, question the players worth as a fan, but to directly attack a player is just plain weird.
The area which fans should be blaming is the clear neglect of the clubs back room staff by those in charge for years. It is no coincidence we have had several injury crisis’s in recent years.
As for Cam Scott, very lazy to accuse an entire fan base of been toxic.

| The thing is I guess however loyal you are to have 18 players out at the same time for a number of reasons is either the worst luck we have had for decades or an indication that moral is low, they like us can't wait for the season to end or many are as frustrated as us (bans), just unlucky with injuries, not fit (Injured) or just fed up of losing. but whatever the reason these are dire times and with an inability to bring anyone else in the morale patience and indeed dispondency of the loyal in any kinda weather brigade is at an all time low.
Folks have over reacted on their concern on social media something I guess that is reflected in a much more serious and disgusting way on the national scene too, but that's what happens I guess these days with keyboard warriors and folks in their bedrooms tapping away on their keyboards with the curtains drawn and there is absolutely no excuse for it.
We all still love the club, but times are really tough for us all and and that is manifest in many different levels of frustration, but the fact remains that Folks have just had enough and many are now getting out of the habit of going to games, even if they have season tickets and I never thought I'd ever see that. However, they are just fed up and seasons next years will be a tough old sell for the club. No news on the investor, all gone quiet on the signings front and worries about Beaumont and Co trying to reverse the IMG stuff just out of petulance (in his case at least) Big signings and some real hope are needed to even start to save the situation. Take your boots on Sunday it will be a long afternoon. Its a good job we love 'em.
PS thank goodness I haven't got Sky+!!!

| The problems are down to poor recruitment, lack of discipline and skimping on S&C and physio staff. It won't change while we sign players like cust and abdul who are regularly injured or simply lack the discipline to be a top class sportsman.
It's crucial that we recruit experienced S&C people for next year and get things right from the start of pre season

Scott's gone to a club with a tiny ganbase compared to ours so he won't need to worry about what fans think

| A new head physio coming in and hopefully some quality strength and conditioning coaches too. As others have said, it's imperative the club gets this part right after the last few disastrous seasons.

My experience of forums is whilst it’s their prerogative fans are unbelievably critical when not knowing many of the facts. I can’t believe this doesn’t impact on the players. However it’s human nature and being at Wakefield will be no different. Thankfully there is less drama surrounding Trueman and he’ll be back. All this seasons experIences will be for the benefit of the club in years to come

| Poor comments by Scott, happens at every clubs, but obviously more so when clubs are struggling, some fans go over the top, but they shouldn't be on social media if they let comments from fans get to them.
Weird comments by Grix though, saying Trueman had a different injury and will be out for the season.

| I think cam Scott has turned into a bit of a baby in recent times.
Took to social media to comment about what people were saying about his 'salary' and reason for going to Wakey and now this...he sounds very disgruntled,.some very unprofessional posts. They sort of came out of nowhere, as I don't remember him making any others comments previous to all these .
Strange how Grix saying he is done for the season and Truman saying he isn't ....

| We've been living in the social media age for what 15 years now, so the players know the score when deciding to have a career in the public eye.
Yes there are boundaries such as contacting them directly, shouting at them in the street etc but criticism comes with the job, its not different to say a music act releasing a poor quality song or album and getting bad reviews.
On salaries there will always be speculation particularly in a salary cap sport where budget management is key. Footballers even get their wages broken down by day, hour and minute by the media as theres huge sums involved and it generates comments.

| Also branding an entire fan base toxic over some social media comments seems harsh when the Internet is not exactly not known as a bastion of moderation and reasoned debate.

Indeed, worth pointing out there were still some clapping the team off the field on Saturday despite another heavy defeat (I went for the leave silently right on the hooter approach) its not like all 10k are insulting them

Plus, some of us fans donated to Cam Scott for his sponsored bike ride at the end of last season. Very toxic

His comment probably says more about Cam Scott himself, when as you say he's branded an entire fan base despite the majority backing and supporting the players including him.
Very poor comment and a very uneducated comment, perhaps he'd like to expand on his comment and as to what evidence he has to back up his view of an entire fanbase being toxic.

It’s a moanathon.
The abuse he and Trueman had were more likely from anonymous posters. Like folk do on here posting behind a username.every sports club has abusive idiots.
Its his opinion, he’s left the club and no doubt he felt the abuse personally.

Haven’t read his comment but I imagine he’s not referring to every single fan. It must be frustrating for him when inaccuracies about his wages and reasons for leaving are stated on social media. Fans can be a 14th man on the pitch but equally can affect a players confidence. I am always impressed by Wakefield fans whose team seem often to reflect the their good spirit. I think a lot of Hull fans are objective and wish the best for players. Some comments I see which are unnecessarily hypercritical imo come from sources who seem to have the answer to everything and little access to fact. Perhaps Scott is referring to these
