Lets face facts once again we dont have the money and it has to come from somewhere and the only worth we have is in the players.Yes some clangers have been made getting players in on silly contracts and money and selling season tickets at a big discount.I can see what the idea was with cheap season tickets get the crowds in and up the price later once you have the fans in.Thats all well and good but a fine balancing act to get right but it was plain to see those ticket offers were far to cheap.Yes Eric France going bust lost us some big income but we should not be reliant on one main sponsor and what the others bring in should be able to cover for that.This club needs to be sold to all and sundry to bring that extra revenue in.
One idea to get extra income in why dont we have a brochure given out on match days with adverts for local buisnesses to advertise in something similar to one you get through the letter box.Even one that went with season tickets every year would be extra income from advertising.

There was no intention to patronize. I apologise if that's how it came across.
I did say I was the same.

any money is better than no money. Can we get a main stand sponsor? The Eric France signs were up all season and didnt pay for it.

My son ,Jordan Crowther,recently signed for Trin,which he and the Crowther family are very proud of,being Wakey born and bred and I know this would be better saved for next weeks meeting but it has been playing on our minds that the youth set up may be sacrificed and the monies diverted elsewhere.Being red,white and blue through and through we hope he will wear the shirt of Wakey in the first team and the youngsters are kept together for the forseable future.if you could give any response it would be much appreciated .Cheers. eusa_think.gif

I think you'll find that we are hoping that salvation comes from our youth. Not once has it entered my mind to cut back on what we are trying to do with our youth players.

'Its like the jungle out there, only the strong survive and the weak get killed off and that's whats happened in Hull. They'll run to the end of the season then that's it, they'll be gone, there will be no more Hull Kingston Rovers there's no room for them.' Tim Wilby, 1997. Screw you Tim.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_46343.jpg



I really hope you guys get out of this mess and can build a sustainable future. 2 financial meltdowns in 3 years isnt good going but you survived last time I hope you can do so again, hopefully for good this time. Seems like youve been a bit unlucky with your sponsor going belly up but obviously there is still accountability for whats happened, the sad thing is its the fans who love their club who suffer. Stick together guys and im sure those with Wakefield Trinity in their heart will still have a club to support whether that be in SL or not icon_cheers.gif

That's good enough for me. I would love to see more Wakey youngsters playing in OUR team.

Lots of rumours flying around that to me seem to be doing nothing but further destabilising the club. It's good to have you debunking those that are untrue. Thanks
