| Quote: Leyther_Matt "Couldn't believe what I was hearing when I had a call at 12 to tell me the game was off when I was just about to get on the M62 - the question must be asked as to how the RFL didn't spot it sooner and indeed if the thread on here had owt to do with it, but I think it's best for it to come out now rather than another round down the track.
Froze my knackers off at Sedgeley Park for nowt!
Good luck for Thursday...

| Like you , littlerich , as I said earlier , I am so peed off at the moment.I love this club that I've followed for 25 yes but today's news and the way it's been handled is so disappointing. I get the feeling the rfl knew nothing about this until this morning , that's why the game was postponed so late. I just hope the resignations of clay and posner are unconnected because if not ,then it's a whole lot worse because that would give the impression that theclub knew there Was a problem but didn't inform the rfl until today if at all. Another thing .I know they won't but wouldnt it been helpful if the club had just put out a statement apolgising for the postponement. I could go on but I won't , iam just so disappointed for all thefans and players ofthis once great club. Goodnight

The club may feel they have done nothing wrong and are fighting their innocence. To release a statement, apologising for what has happened is admitting guilt. They are damned if they do, damned if they dont.

Just a statement of an update would suffice! ne need to discuss the outcome just an frank update and some rational explanation thats all, oh and some sort of heart felt apology might not go a miss!
The club has a backward PR policy.

Forgive me for taking a shot in the dark here, but maybe they've been rather busy with other things today.
I know for a fact that one office employee who I spoke to at 12.30 today was in the process of trying to get in touch with people to alert them that the game had been pulled, I expect that's pretty much the truth. I myself then confirmed to several of my friends that the game was off & that it was official and not just rumour.

But we've got to fill their places. Is there anyone willing to do it?

of course it would have been bedlum! but still no communication upto now to the no 1 priority for the club, it's customers, THE FANS.
I would have expected some statement some time this evening at least. Nothing too detailed just some sort of acknowledgement that the fans exist in all this, thats all!

I would have thought the previously mentioned posters at the turnstiles were a form of communication as well as the good old invention that Mr. Bell gave us.

| I came down early as I am on matchday staff duties, saw the signs for the postponement.
My initial concern that entered my head was "How the hell is the game off? Has there been a tragic accident resulting in loss of life with someone connected to the club?" Then my fear turned to anger when I found out the shoddy amateurish truth.
