Whatever we're left with after two weeks of sales will be the starting point of a new squad, with any number of players gone there will be room on the wage bill to bring in some fresh blood.

Who knows it may actually be a good thing to strip the squad back to the bare bones and hang some new flesh on the skeleton.

This could well happen so it is a bloody good job we are playing Catalans and Salford in the next 2 weeks when we could well be loosing most of the 1st team squad as opposed to Saints and Wigan.

Quote: watch wakey "asked my little un what he wanted to do if we weren't in super league and he said "watch wakey" followed by "wakey till i die!" that was important to me to know i have brought him up so well....'"


that's what's needed. I'm a cas supporter... I go to most games every season, but tend not to buy a season ticket or a shirt, the only exceptions to this was the 2 championship league seasons. That's when the club needs it supporters.

It's easy to support a team in the good times... It's more important to support them through the less good times

Quite possibly but it will make painful viewing in the next couple of weeks. I'd imagine the only signings we could make would be young British kids to complement the ones we manage to hang on to. No overseas signings allowed for 3 months and can't see many experienced players being available at this early stage.

I take it that glover can't open the cheque book until all debts have been cleared if this so then I would like to know the difference between us and the crusaders

Quote: Sandal Cat "Sorry but the Administrator is only doing his job and that's to pay as much as he can to the Creditors. He did not get us into the crap where we are now we managed to get there ourselves and we only have ourselves to blame. By we I'm referring to the Management of the Club. If he had received an acceptable offer he would not still be selling off assets to pay creditors - I cannot see how he has received an offer he is happy to accept otherwise we would not be where we are now/

As Snowie has said just tell us the truth. Why did Parkin withdraw. Has Glovers bid been accepted or not. Why are players being sold. What future do we have.'"


Forgive an intrusion from a concerned outsider. But that perfectly sums up precisely my assessment. Add in "What were the terms of Glover's bid?"

This is not going according to script. Maybe the due dilligence has turned up some unexpected further nasties, maybe its something else, but it looks very worrying to me.

Good luck guys. Its looking more and more like you are going to need it. Big mistake being called Wakefield not Wrexham.

Like some others have said, why have we gone from Glover saying no players will be sold, to what's happening toady.Surely knowing what we've been through with Ted, he would have been truthful because there would have been no point in lying. You defo get the impression that somethings happened between Friday and today and at the moment it's hurting my brain.

He will have known, they dont just sell a player that quick, this is why parkin has pulled out, because he knew we were destined for nl1 and our top players were to be sold off

Why would he say no players to be sold on Friday then? It is not a good way to start with your new customers is it?

well in a way it isn't a lie, as he has been sold today, its not upto him, the administrators will do everything in their power to settle debts first then try to sell it as a going concern, the the HMRC don't accept an agreement then they will have to liquidate the club, but he will be aware of the position, and more to go i fear

Exactly, doesn't make sense. If this would have been announced on the day, I'm sure more people would be taking it better, instead of this getting all excited and looking forward and then a big time downer again.

He didn't say no players will be sold today (ie Friday when he agreed the deal), he said no players will be sold. As others have said you would have known on the Friday it could happen and not made the comment or you believed the deal had been struck including all assets (incl players)

but when he said that did he think that he would be in full control, maybe things have taken another twist icon_biggrin.gifOH:

We won't be doing that though, will we? We'll be giving away the choice cuts and leaving ourselves the odd finger-scoop under the bone that turns out tasty and a bit of offal that we might spice up into a meal. It'll be a makeshift 17 for sure. What chance another Wally Lewis style signing for the last 10 games?
