One thing is for sure whoever is in charge next year they have to be recruiting now or if left will be asked to have players they haven't been party to recruiting.

so either back C.C
or make a decision.

Or be left with players no other club want.

From an outside view i would say that lockdown has certainly affected you. If you excuse the wording, Belle Vue is a tacky little ground but the home fans make it a hostile cauldron for the away team and after seeing us get pumped there often enough i would say the Wakey side definitely gets a lift from the home crowd. We (Wigan) have probably played differently too as we as fans generally get on the players' backs as there is an expectancy to perform week in week out. What i will say though is that concurring to some of the comments on here. Chester did look a broken man last night and i am pretty sure he knows he is under pressure. People in rugby league aren't generally well paid and the man has to think of his family. He isn't going to just walk away from a contract and as fed up as you are i would say stick with him until you can get a good crowd back in. The Wakey fans really are the 18th man and you need to play your part too.

I've seen this a few times from opposition fans and players. Belle Vue has never struck me as a hostile ground. Antiquated with little of modern life's 'luxury' yes, an intimidating ground, no. It's hardly the Ali Sami Yen.

Regarding the fans at Belle Vue being hostile, when reading Keith Seniors autobiography he referred to playing at Wakefield as the cauldron of hate.

Others on this forum are saying that this is one of the best squads that we've had, yet you say above that Chester needs the Board to provide the coach with money to provide a reasonable squad. which is correct?

Chester needs to be backed up with money. Like the money he used to sign Brough, Atkins, and MCB for a second time (and didn’t use him). Mitch Allgood another waste of money. More recently Alex Walker. Signing Tangata permanently in off season then paying him off.

Probably because he used to run into a fight and king hit players from behind

Pitts did right to go for the steal, more of less under the post .Next play Leed would have past it back to Gale game over .Just the way things are going at presents.,Did feel sorry for Mr Chester last night ,the team could not have give more

I said in a previous post that our pivots were rubbish and general play certainly in the second half was garbage some Leeds fans are saying an half decent side should have rattled 40 past us that’s how bad we were,Leeds are poor and we are notch worse

No one can deny the effort that is on show is off the scale ,but our skill set is well below par of where it should be even before the injuries set in . Our defensive structures have certainly got better even with the chopping and changing to the team , so why is our attack so poor and has been for a long time . I remember this same conversation a few seasons ago in the friendly’s and was told we were keeping our powder dry as to attacking structures . I think two seasons is long enough to keep them under wraps ,and could we please see them implement ASAP .

I think that it needs a bit of realism here. Our 'pivots' consisted of one regular (Mason), we had one hooker on loan (been with us 2 weeks), the other hooker is a backrower and went off early in the game, our other half is really a fullback and our fullback has only been training with us for a couple of weeks. Oh and I'm forgetting that our only regular hooker pulled out of the game the day prior to the match.
