I tuned in to listen to the game today for the first time in a while and switched off when Shudds scored to make it 4-18 because I knew what was coming next from watching over the last few seasons - and sure enough.
The fact is that the team has not been performing since JK left - is it a coincidence that JK’s departure corresponded with the start of our run of poor performances? Don’t know and quite frankly I don’t care anymore. What I do know, however, is that the head coach has to take responsibility for the complete dross that we have been subjected to over the last few seasons. I can understand why MC would be reluctant to sack CC before his contract is up because of the potential financial ramifications for the club. However, if MC has awarded CC a contract extension off the back of the rubbish served up over the last few seasons, as is rumoured, then he has lost the plot completely and with it my confidence in his ability to run the club, a family of supporters who have watched the club since the early 1980s, the sponsorship of a player, three family season tickets and two Trinity TV subscriptions.
I will not watch a CC-coached Wakefield team any longer and what’s more I know hell of a lot more people who will be calling it a day if CC stays beyond this season.

In the past, we never had a pandemic to contend with. Even without the slump, people are getting out of the habit and I do think those clubs who have maintained their standards through the last two seasons will come out far stronger than we will.
It's a huge concern, especially when you consider how much goodwill the club and players received at the start of Covid, it does feel a bit like a slap in the face.'"
Fans will come back for a winning side but the area of concern for me is the game in general it’s very poor quality and sinking in front of our eyes. Rugby people have totally lost interest in super league not just us every team and switching off in droves |

Sounds like Carter is a couple of grand lighter this morning, he’s got a fine for slagging off the disciplinary panel.

To be fair to Carter, the statement he made on the disciplinary panel was absolutely warranted IMO, I think his honesty and will to speak out about issues in the wider game is something I really like about him and with the traction it picked up in the media, it`s probably worth the £1000 fine. It`s a shame he doesn`t show the same backbone and will to speak out about the state of our current situation. |

At least PT now agrees that Chester has reached his sell by date and it's time for him to move on,
Could the recent decline in performances be attached to long covid but as yet not be recognised? |
