Funny how people see it differently. I thought when Charlie and Korki came back on they moved us forward and although Katy was good in flashes he wasn't good as a hooked, he was just another backrower. Rinaldi showed him how to play hooker. Wish he would stay and turn the clock back a bit.

It doesn't seem to bother other teams who are recruiting players on 2-3 year contracts that may also be struggling to get a franchise next year or have we had the nod already that next year will be our last in super league

this time last year wakefield academy were crowned champions,i saw them take apart a castleford u18s side that so far has had at least 6 players make their super league debuts this season and not looked out of place.

surely this was the season to get some of these kids playing first team,im sure the loose forward anakin and southernwood had he been given a chance not only would he still be at wakefield but applying himself with credit.

i know its true that cas and wakefield will struggle to recruit with the threat of not getting a franchise and its been impossible for cas to get anyone from the nrl of any note because of this.so has a result it kind of forces a clubs hand to throw in the kids and can only have a positive affect that the club is producing players which is a major factor in any franchise bid.surely then the rugby brained people of wakefield will find a few losses easier to take knowing that the local kids are been given a chance to shine its certainly something in cas we are very proud of that we can bring kids through the ranks.

Who are you to criticise who turns up to matches and who doesn't? Moaning at people that don't turn up isn't exactly going to entice them to come, is it?

Some people have work to go to, some people have family events on, some people can't afford the expensive gate fee, some people can't justify the long distance they may have to travel to get there, some may just not feel like it due to the way the club has been recently.

At the end of the day, the club has to entice people to come and watch them play. If the product isn't exciting enough for people to pay their well earned cash, then people are not going to turn up.

I hope that this is a wake up call to the BOD and those running the club, showing them that they are responsible for our 'experience' when we come to BV, and that fans should be treated with respect when they turn up and that the players on the pitch should at least look like they care about what they are doing - recently many people on this forum do not reckon that is what they are getting from a match day at BV.

As for getting players in for next season and beyond, we managed to recruit players before when relegation was an issue, so why not this next season? They will all have release clauses written in anyway, so I don't see what the issue is. Its all excuses, and a lot of people are not happy about it.

5500 wasn't that bad what with the performances the team have displayed in recent months. Come on Trinity sort it out for next season

change your shirt for a fev shirt. seems fashionable

i'd agree with you 100% there and hope rinaldi does decide to stay next season far better than tevita. latu is too eratic. poor distribution and has too many problems off the field. salford are welcome to him imo.

Rinaldi is contracted in France for next season I believe. Player-coach job.

I hope there is someway we can get him for next season, best hooker we have at the club.

Why not did Hull FC fans walk away last season Do HKR back their team to the hilt Cas have had 2 relegations and they still average more than Wakefield. Maybe the fact is the City of Wakefield do not deserve a SL team, The Wakefield public don’t appear to care one way or the other.
And for the record imwakefieldtillidie I will buy 2 gold season tickets for next season I have missed more games than I wanted to this season due to being away from home with work that situation has now changed
I have said in the heat of the moment that’s it no more over and over again, this season has being lousy but I can’t walk away
I will be at Bradford and on holiday for Salford

I am far from happy with how Ted and his hangers on run the club. I would love to know who the idiot was that set the match day entry fee at £20.
I am far from happy with on field performance
But now is not the time to take our bat and ball home

Lets face it we all know the great sporting public have their true priorities.

1. Prefer to watch sport for free on the telly
2. Better still if the telly is in a pub
3. Their darling team is LUFC

Yesterday was the perfect situation so that may have accounted for some support.

However having said all that I think the second half of the season has been terrible
It has not been entertaining or enjoyable and people have just had enough.

Well, Cas' Academy could be said to be more successful than ours then. The true test isn't winning meaningless pots, but producing Super League quality players.
