Personally think MC is/has done a fantastic job. However, questioning himself on twitter when the players including new ones who have just arrived (on what one would perceive as positive messages given) is not the way to go IMHO. What message is this sending when the commander and chief is wobbling.

Message for MC. Don't listen to most of the tools on here. You have/are doing a good job, this is sport and we will no doubt see one or two more dreadful performances but I truly believe what you have achieved so far is a success in itself. Hold the line form the troops and you will reap the reward... Although you are an astute business man you are dealing with professional sports peoples egos and the media hanging on every word; so I guess it is very different and sometimes you can be a little too open. The only open thing that maybe good to come out and say is that after everything you have all done in the last few months you expect a whole lot better attitude and performance from the players.

Keep strong and continue to lead. It's not just WTW fans that recognise what you have achieved so far others in the game have too...So that alone should tell you something!!!

There is no doubt that MC has done a superb job in taking us from the brink of admin to where we are now.
Patience is the key, a trait that sporting fans are not usually known for.
I don't think the hard work and stress of running a club like ours will ever go away but, as we start to get some results things will get better all round.
Come on MC, realist the excellent work done and despite the moaners, EVERYBOBY appreciates the job being done.
The problem with twitter and the forum is that there is always a knee jerk reaction on here and in the bigger picture, things are never that bad.
The highs are not as high as they appear and the lows are not as low as they are portrayed.
More of us need to remember just where we were 3 1/2 months ago !

I guess after working near miracles to get to the start line, the reduction in capacity was a real kick in the nads.
I think MC was quoted as wanting a 6.5k average crowd this season to stay buoyant and he should, quite rightly, have expected at least that figure for the first game. The light at the end of the tunnel was in fact a train coming the other way.
With only 3 matches at home in the next 3 months, cash flow will be a big challenge.

Maybe we need to be a bit more proactive in getting the numbers up, and perhaps this is somewhere the Supporters' Trust could take a lead?
With season ticket sales being fewer than we would have been hoped, we need to push advance ticket sales. Getting people to commit to attending, (especially after a couple of pints with their mates?) and guaranteeing entry could be the key.

If we had agents in different areas around Wakefield coordinating sales through local businesses (shops/pubs etc.) and amateur clubs, the numbers could improve. I've seen posters advertising the next home game in such places in Stanley, perhaps we could extend this by making tickets available. Sale or return basis, with a deadline a few days before the match?
There will be some cost, printing tickets etc., but if the coordinators/agents were volunteers, it should be minimal.
Another possibility would be to have tickets available on-line which could be printed out (like Salford?), but maybe security and technology costs would be prohibitive?
Worth a try?

No one has done more for this club than MC has in the last few months and you will get the fans throwing a teddy after performances like Thursdays but that's frustration and not aimed at MC.As for the bars etc lets remember the club have just taken that side in house again so give them chance.

Don't let us lump constructive criticism in with whinging for the sake of it though.
