As a fan of the club I am ANGRY
I am Angry at the players.
I am Angry at the coach.
I Angry at the club owners.
I am Angry at the fact that to be successful in RL you have to have a wealthy benefactor.

As a fan I am allowed to be ANGRY!!!
I don’t want to be told the club can’t afford it. I am a fan not an owner. My job is to turn up and support my club and that allows me to be ANGRY when that dross is served up week in week out.
I’m not sorry for the owners as I am a fan.

I solve the clubs issues by turning up each week and paying my hard earned money to the club.

Physically put the club on the market through an agent. Put it out there that this club is for sale. If as owners you really care (and I don’t for a minute believe you don’t) then find someone who has the money to make us successful again. Make it your number one mission to find that person or conglomerate. Other clubs have and it can be done.

I’m a fan and I’m ANGRY!!!

Past been angry, I was laughing at how bad we are. The period in the first half when we forced a drop out (shock horror) fluffed the first play by throwing a wild pass to Taufua, only to get a reprieve for then Lino to drop the ball on the first tackle. Amateur teams have a better skill level/game plan.

Well, I'm struggling to argue with that this morning. Except to say, I wouldn't mind betting they've been looking. Recent comments suggest it. Certainly, Michael looks very happy to just be a fan again

[b:19e3zrpk]DONT TOUCH THE WATCH[/b:19e3zrpk]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_56034.png



Racing home last night from North Yorkshire to get stuck for an hour on the m1, straight in the house and straight out to the game in my work cloths. Wakefield fans show a hell of a lot of commitment to this club, and get served up that. I’ll defend a team that puts the effort in, but last night was a disgrace. No matter what your views are we are all Trinity fans and want our club to succeed in our own individual views or ways. I’m preparing for the championship next year for sure.

Carter and Minnards have run the club into the ground. They bemoan not having any money yet we are paying Gaskell and Lineham circa £200k per year between them.

Applegarth is out of his depth, it's not his fault and I don't blame him, I blame the people who appointed someone who isn't up to the job because he was a cheap yes man.

Carter and Minnards need to get out of the club, we were better off under Ted, at least he tried where as this lot just blame everyone and everything but themselves.

Who would take over though.

Like you, I'm a long, long way from being happy.
However, the one thing that Carter and Minards haven't done, is run the club into the ground.
However, what they haven't done, is to get anywhere close to being able to give the fans anything close to a competitive side to watch.
The reality is that since those early Chester years, the squad has been getting progressively weaker and we now have a squad that is capable than no better than 3/4th in the Championship and it's gutting.

The ultimate irony is that, after 50+ years, the ground is finally getting a decent upgrade but, this seems to be at the cost of having a decent side to watch.

Every new player (Proctor aside) is a poor option compared to those who have left and even with the "better" players, we managed 10th last season.

There is literally no hope of survival and on current form, not much chance of winning a game.

Some of the basic skills on show last night would be unacceptable in an U15's side, it simply isn't good enough.

I’m not knocking them for what they have done for the club, I’m angry the way the club is now going and has for the last few seasons.
We are no way better under Ted. I liked Ted but as we are now with the current owners there is and was a time to move on. Ted had bad luck at the end after a good fight for the club and now they are having the bad luck. Until we have a money man or at least someone who can/will take a chance and top up the squad money to the full spend to get a competing team then the crowds are not going to get bigger.
Success breads success and that has to start on the pitch.

Tell the bloody tabloids to put it out to the world we are for sale. The mirror likes a RL story.

Or maybe even share news of Carter stepping down on LinkedIn, and within the post, trying to promote the club to a potential investor

Or as IGM want everyone to have presence on social media, maybe it’s about time the club found someone who really knows how to use all this new young people stuff and make a bid to get it out there on TikTok and the likes that we are desperate for new wealthy owners. I hear people have made life changing amounts of money on them. So use what the new wealthy working class people use these days not what people used 10-30 years ago.
We bloody need money and now. Sell what is good about us to people and be honest and show why we are bad. That bits not hard.
Times past just needing a few extra fans and sponsorship no. The club needs not wants needs lots of cash.
10yrs and our cash intake as only gone one way. We’re run by accounts and we needed marketing people too unfortunately.
From Glover to Carter we never got the middle man did we.

What’s happened to the money raised from the share sales, apparently the club were amazed at the take up by fans and more significantly there was reports that the Full Share, £50K I think, also had loads of interest

Where are we with that

Probably just saying that to make us little fans feel like our contribution of £500/£1000 will be more than matched by these others that can never be mentioned so that we actually do part with our monies.
I’m so Angry atm I feel let down and depressed and that should never happen as a fan.
Upset at results and the odd player yes but not at the whole organisation and I mean the RFL as well.
I see the sport that I’ve grown up with and love been turned into just another money maker for a select few.
It’s a disgrace to all the clubs that don’t fit the bill and who decides, the ones that will benefit!!!
We should not be scared of going to the championship, it should be just a case of getting the club into some order to be able to make a tilt at returning. If and when we go down, like lots of other lower clubs that will be it.
Done and dusted and the ruling class clubs will all be happy. Until it’s their turn Ofcourse!
How sad we have to be looking for a shining knight in armour to just survive!!!
Still very ANGRY to the point of, ‘what is the point anymore?’

Well, just for the record, I have re shared the statement of Carter stepping down, on LinkedIn, adding in hashtags to link it back to the sport and our club.

Nothing may come of it, but if you don't try, you won't get anywhere
