I think some have touched on this.
I feel more down,saddened,disillussioned or whatever than at any other time in all the years supporting the mighty Trin.
I think that I and a lot of you out there thought we had turned the corner and were really on the way back.
I admit to being taken in by all the bluster and perhaps by some well intentioned if ill thought out rhetoric.
Yep, it is even hard for the hard core.

I feel the same, I just can't see anything but loosing game after game next year. With the club being "saved" a couple of seasons ago I too thought Wakefield would come good perhaps in 2014/5 but that bubble is now burst and we will be the new London Broncos next year.

I know what you mean Jacques.
I'm not so much down as feeling let down. I thought we had turned a corner too.

But, it's now a new start again. I have my season ticket, and I look forward to good battles against the odds. Some wins would be nice and I think we will get some. Unfortunately we'll get hammered a few times when the squad is short.

This is the time to shout even louder.
Come on Trinity!

Well put. And sadly you get the feeling it might continue to get worse before it gets any better.

Yes we must be, otherwise why would we spend our spare time and cash on this club.

Together we are touched.

Without question its another kick in the guts, but its only rugby.
Our supporters prediction league donation this year went to the Wakefield Hospice, the people who use this service and their families are the ones who are down and frankly would love to have "only our problem".
As dissapointed as i am, we are still alive and very much kicking and have much to look forward to.

Very much this.

As nice as it was to have a false sense of security for the last 2 seasons, as far as being a Trinity supporter this is pretty much standard. A squad made up of cast offs and unfancied players fighting to retain their spot in SL. I would've thought we're all accustomed to that by now.

I too am in agreement on this. I follow a remarkable doctor from Wakefield on twitter called Kate Granger who has terminal cancer and has the most remarkable spirit, she inspires me to be positive and always put things into perspective.
I can't wait for the next season for so many more reasons than the team we can put out on the field.
The quality time me and my family spend together and the team spirit you always witness from the Wakefield dressing room to name but two.
We are down but definitely not OUT for next year and you need only look at the number of topics and comments that are put on here compared to other clubs to appreciate the strength and resilience of Wakefield Trinity fans.

I don't post too often anymore but feel I need to sometimes and this is one such time.

Like everyone else I'm feeing a little despondent at times and have to dig deep to find some reserves of positivity to keep me going.

When I look at the team as it stands today, it's still fairly competitive and certainly not bottom two material, factor in some siege mentality, which we do best, and with players not worrying about being paid and we could surprise a few next year, including ourselves.

As it stands our line up looks like,
Mathers
Fox, Collis, Smith, Cockayne
Sykes, Goulding (or overseas signing)
Poore, Aiton, Raleigh
Kirmond, Lauitiiti
Washbrook

Wildie, Smith, Tautai, Lyne, Anakin, Walshaw, Trout, Kaye?

Even if we lose a couple from that team it's certainly not the worst squad we've had in recent seasons.

We allways suport our team. and our spirit of never giving up we hope will rub off on players and board.

Now having said that things will get worse and not sure we have the right stratergy to get out of this mess.
Unless someone convinces the rest of the suporters we have then am afraid season ticket sales new merchandise [shirts in december is pretty late }
We will generate the income we need resulting in more player sales.
