ADAM WATENE & LEON WALKER R.I.P.:18923.jpg



Quote: SimonBarrett "Him wearing a Warrington shirt

Him talking about Smith being the only coach to get the best out of him (he said 'no disrespect to kear......but that is exactly what it is!).

Him talking about it 'being like home' already.

etc etc.

Just don’t understand why they announced it and had a press conference at the most critical part of out season. Why not do it in two/three weeks???'"


I agree, full respect to ryan he would have stayed happily if we didnt accept a bid for him.

But with the above taking out of our ground (i know its a hole but you dont have to say it do you).

Like moving from farsley celtic to liverpool, didnt realise we were that small a club icon_rolleyes.gif look at league table.

Wearing warrington shirt dont like that. No thanks to wakefield seemed to have us and rest of season last in his mind.

Silly for us to agree for atkins to have this interview and maybe abit immature for ryan to do it, couldnt it have waited till end of season.

Was Smith that was coach when he signed, but I do agree Kear and Wakefield have done a lot for his game as he has said. I don’t like the comment about Kear but that’s the only gripe I have with it all.

Yes he is still a Wakey player and I would have preferred the press conference to wait but again that’s not down to Atkins what ever people may think!

Sure he will give his all in the last few games as he says he owes a lot to Wakey and he does mean that! Sure he will be spotted at some of the games next season

Alive n kicking:



Quote: adam9641 "You don't have to. It's the truth but if you don't want to believe that fair enough. Just don't want people getting the idea he wanted to leave'"


right adam i know you spoke to ryan and that but in the report he says he just thought "Where do i sign" on hearing that wire wanted him .

Solomona told me that he was staying i got his name on the back of a shirt the very same day 5 days later he had gone.

Dont doubt what he said but some off his actions post news conference have in my opinion been questionable , although if he gives 101% to the cause then i can live with it.

just a thought adam for you , for the few seasons ryan as pledged his future and declared how much he loves Wakefield and how much he wants to stay and of course because hes so loyal every year has had to be induced with a larger pay offer.

When we play against Wire we'll have to mark him and wrap him up quickly so he doesn't release his winger.

He did not ask to leave, he saw no reason to leave. Warrington came in with an offer which Wakey accpeted and when he was informed about the decision and heard Wakey would like to sell then he may as well talk to the said club.

I would not want to be at a club that did not want me

Blame wakefield & atkins for agreeing to it.

Not blaming warrington for what atkins said they didnt make him say those things.

Well it's Warrington that decided when to announce, no one else.

If they had not announced it then there would have been no press conference. Silly time to announce the signing but nothing Atkins can do about that.

What are the chances that wakefield have given permission for him to attend this press conference, and are ok with warrington doing it, couldn't be too difficult for them to say no, he's not missing training or something.

I mean for press conference, there the ones that wanted it to happen when the did. Oh wel.

Good luck to him at Wire. Be interesting to see the Solo and Atkins link up again.

Brad Drew, Oliver Wilkes and Steve Snitch haven't said negative things about Wakefield that have been reported or worn their new shirt, and they're all leaving. It's just common sense on behalf of the individual.
