| Quote Wooden Stand="Wooden Stand"Plenty of supporters on here over the years clamouring for signings to be made. Currently wanting a prop(s) to be signed. Never seen it caveated with "so long as we are up to date with the PAYE, National Insurance and VAT".'"
... and therefore we must conclude that anyone who omits your caveat clearly supports not paying HMRC?
And you wonder why people don't take you seriously.

| Quote Duckman="Duckman"Rival relegation threatened club chairman doesnt want us to get points back as it would potentially hurt his club so he goes public to put some pr pressure on the rfl panel with a threat to throw his teddy out of the pram.....what a shocker.
only thing that lets him down really, if you agree with his sentiments or not (and I have some sympathy with him tbf), is this line;
" I would probably do the same thing " - M Carter.
Really? so what are you bleating to the press about then? stfu.'"
Think you're reading too much into it. Reading it, he sounds like a man who is worn out after spending the winter working his socks off to get the club back on its feet and needs a holiday. It reads also like a reporter calling someone asking for an opinion and got a weary one rather than a chairman going public with some kind of protest.
It has to be said that the post below, where the contribution to the competition is a factor, is an epitome of a playing field that isn't level.
The penalty should be judged on its merits, and not, "you're okay because you had Bullpower".

Running scared (though I don't know why. We'd struggle to stay up without a points deduction) is Carter. Reading between the lines it wouldn't surprise me if Wakefield aren't far off an insolvency event. He wants to stop signing players and start living within his means. Doesn't matter if your debts aren't big if your income is love all. The ground only holds 5000 and they can't even fill that. The fact he's had to put up his own house as capital for finance prove they aren't cutting their cloth and he hasn't a pot to mickey in for underwriting losses. He'll reap what he sows.

| If Carter was told by RFL Wakey would be relegated if they went down then we get 6 points back then I would agree with his comments it is unfair. However I don't think we'll get 6 points back unless the independent review finds the RFL acted hugely inappropriately during the admin process and it could have been avoided if they had not acted inappropriately. But that's not going to happen. Maximum we'll get is 2pts back. I think Michael Carter would have been better withholding his comments until after the appeal process.
Either way Wakey cold soon be following us. He has worked his backside off to save Wakey. But he doesn't have money to write off debts, their attendances are really poor, plus I think I RFL have struck another beauty in not letting them have a home game for about 6 weeks like they did with us last year! I think the extra sky income may have saved them.

He's twisting stuff though. They didn't say that much like saying we only lost sammut and scruton and made no other savings is

Its not all about Bradford there is a lot going on besides that but that will be up to the club to respond.
at this moment its like trying to box with your strongest arm tied behind your back
