Could be just what they need though. Seems to me they've finally got their heads screwed on with regards to what needs to happen to secure the club's future, rather than just looking at the short term of doing well in the league this year. If they manage to get a ground sorted out, I wouldn't be surprised to see them back next time the licenses come up, and on a much more secure financial footing than they have been in recent times.

Agreed. If they are going to move out of the city they should share, it's bonkers wanting a new ground to themselves in their predicament.

Only one I'd seriously consider. but that would depend how serious langleys injury is. If langley is only out for a couple of weeks then I'd give addy/donaldson a go, and keep the quota spot free for someone more longterm as morro has already said he plans to retire after this year. would be a great quick fix but we need to give our young lads a chance too.

Agree, I was just saying that he's the only player I'd probably consider from Wakey and on a one year deal at best.

Much more of this and they'll struggle to get a 17 together.

I'd feel happier not being thought of as a vulture. Never forget what Leeds did to Keighley.

Looking at your squad the only position you look like you could need cover for is prop. So maybe Paul Johnson if you were going to go young and longer term or Paul King if you wanted an experienced squad fix for the rest of the season. King was wakeys most consistant prop last season and seems to have sorted himself out.

Could be ideal really if what I've heard about Langley is true. Going in for surgery this week apparently.

You must have felt terrible when you got Lynch, Platt & Hudson for nowt.

I personally felt terrible about Hudson a few months later.

Yeah, you do have to feel for Wakey.

It may be just me, and I understand there will be some interest in this kind of thing, but this thread is a bit like relatives picking over the deceased's possessions. Back in 63/64 when the old Northern club went bust, and according to the then chairman "didn't own so much as a bootlace", the Wakefield club (amongst others) were one of those who, far from picking over the players we had (fair enough, there might not have been any they actually fancied) actually [igave us[/i some of [itheir[/i players to set us up again.

Different times and different ways. Sad really.

To be fair, I don't think anyone is saying we WOULD go for these players, or saying we should. Simply "if we were going to", which players would be worth signing? I for one was taking it that way, and in no way do I actually want us to go and raid the players Wakefield still have.
