Quote: Donnyman "That's a mighty rant....I'm sure you and me both would, and have, and still would watch games stood on a pit heap (didn't Post office road have an unterraced banking of pit debris behind the sticks at one end?)**** But if we want the crowds we need to have the facilities - for the ladies if the loo's are a tip that's enough for them to refuse to go. ANYWAY.....
We have to put up with Leeds, Wire, Wigan and Saints playing for all the trophies decade after decade, but one thing I think we may forget is that wasn't there a time when they received "dispensation" because they moaned they could afford to buy big talents from Australia that would "grace the game" and the cap blocked this?
So this is the "better players" thing?
That Leeds or Wigan can stick another couple of hundred thousand on their "cap" and buy top Aussies may also mean that when top kids in Wakefield are ready to join an academy, they don't join Wakefield's but go to Leeds and yes Wigan?
I'd agree the cards are stacked against Wakefield.....Probably both ways......
Odsal's banking at the far end was a mix of rubbish and cinders from 100 years of coal fires in the city, I can remember pulling out empty BYB beer bottles out of that tip....'"
God I didn't think you were that old
