Bit of a non story that, isn't it. Sound bites to placate their fans who will try and see something positive out of it.

Wakey will do what they feel is best for them and their particular circumstances as will all involved parties no doubt.

Word on the street is that the starting point in negotiations is Crabtree, Lunt plus £100k for Brough.

We're counter offering a curly wurly and half a packet of love hearts. My sources say Ted's eyes lit up like a childs on Christmas morn when he saw those love hearts...

Very moving. The key point is that their most talented player does not see a meaningful future at wakey.

I like the Wakey advert for the salford game. Jeffries is injured and Ratchford played in salford reserves yesterday.

As a Wakey fan I would be very disappointed with just a transfer fee, but with uncle moneybags that Is a possible scenario! For us to maintain our top position we need a deal that will bring in other players. If the very strong rumors of 80K plus Kirmond and Aspinwall are true I would be very happy with that.

It's quite possible that Wakey have been toying with the Giants every step of the way. Knowing uncle Kens incredible wealth and knowing his ability to pay we may of just held out for the deal of the century!

ARGHH!!! They've become 'strong rumours' now.

Spot on.

As envisaged both sets of supporters are poles apart in what type of structure they think/hope/predict the deal will have.

I imagine it will be somewhere in the middle of all the predictions.Maybe a modest cash payment to Wakefield or one player joining Wakefield from Huddersfield.

If cash changes hand,its not uncommon for both clubs to agree that the amount is undisclosed,so once again everyone can start wildly speculating.

What will be will be!!!!!

I bet you would!!!
I doubt our club is that daft.

it would be day light robbery and wont happen as much as we might like it to

Wadski, this is all your fault!

The curly wurly and half a packet of love hearts offer has just been corroborated by a second independant source. Seems like the £80k plus player exchange [icould[/i be wide of the mark...

this thread is comedy gold.

Is there anything more delusional than a Wakey fan?

Sources tell me the newly named Golden Brown, formerly known as Nathan Brown, is trying his best to secure the services of someone even more delusional than a Wakefield fan. At the moment he is not prepared to name him as the deal is not yet signed and he wants to keep thing close to his bosom until the ink has dried, so to speak.

Exciting times, I didn't realise there was such a person!

The news items on the Wakefield website indicates that he is certainly on his way. He could go at the end of the year for nothing, but it may be to someone other than you. That puts a premium on him from your side of things. If we let him go now, we lose 21 rounds of our sides linchpin when we could otherwise force him to play. That means that we require an additional premium.

The only question is what we are offered to make it worth giving up those 21 rounds of Danny Brough, and how much little extra you are prepared to add to guarantee his services. Your bargaining chip is that if Danny is guaranteed a contract with you to start next year, he is hardly likely to bust a gut for us, as he is no longer in the shop window. Whatever is decided, it will be one that all three sides are happy with, ie, Hudderfield, Wakefield and Danny Brough.

Like with all things, players come and go and we move on. We did better after Solomona, losing Newton was a major loss but I've forgotten about him already, and Danny Brough will no longer matter after Easter.
