There appears to be a lack of spirit or fight in the team which despite having a 'legend' of a coach play like strangers with no structure.. Too many on here looking at false dawns... I fear the worst against Bradford as the club has not yet sunk to its lowest depths yet. Hope I'm wrong.

TRB - think you need to have a few words with those that take the field not us faithful fans who went today for most of this season we have seen utter garbage. A work mate asked me "what do you think of this middle eights" told him should never have come about finish bottom go down "Yes but its given you a second chance" after what we have seen this season we don't deserve a second chance utter utter drivel for most of the season down to one thing those on the field not the fans.

Perspective says we have had too many dire performances to hold out much hope the squad we have can secure our sl status. The wakey spirit that has kept us off the bottom of the league in previous years with supposedly inferior squads is just not evident in the current bunch

you keep on harping on about how MC doesn't want to stay at BV you just don't get it, had the club not stood its ground it wouldn't be able to survive, the threat of moving on has secured the clubs survival even if we go down but I fair bet if the fans leave in their droves it will make it harder to return

Perspective:- This is Sport not life and death. Some things REALLY matter.
That is all.

Perspective, at the start of the middle 8s you could have been playing another SL side away from home or a Leigh side at lsv full of confidence and momentum as the decideder....as it happens, you are at home against a Bradford side you battered a few week ago, have been pretty poor themselves in the 8s apart from Salford at home. 1 win against a stuttering Bradford side and you get to put this nightmare of a season behind you.


I hope you win anyway, quite enjoyed the last few magic weekends!!

Things always look better in the morning

The things is, if Trinity win we ain't putting anything behind us. We've more than likely got the same e to look forward to next year. There are no plans to grow or build the club as that costs money, which we don't have, and there is no appetite to invest in the clubs infrastructure without it.

We will be quite a bit better off - as has been publicly stated - due to the reduced rent on BV and the fact that we have paid off the old debts - Glovers legacy! As a result we will be able to pay close to the SC - so yes, we will be better off!

The club need to move on quickly .im not sure how the squad will react. You need some emotion and then need to direct that towards a better performance. Do we have a squad capable of turning any emotion in to a performance and a win. Do we have a squad with the right mind set. I have no idea if we will be better off and if we are how the develoent of the club will be measured . I think Mr charters club have one hell of a fight on their hands next Saturday and beyond that the club needs to engage with supporters, employ people in key positions, raise funds, appoint a coach, recruit playing staff and appoiint a marketing person who can also take charge of the media.

At least next season nobody will be under any false illusions as to where we stand right from the start. Anybody getting a season ticket or going to the opening games will know what to expect.

Good to know, unfortunately all the decent players who could perhaps help the club move up the table will have been signed up so elsewhere so we have more cash to pay the same below average players more money.

Perhaps it would be more prudent if those savings can be ploughed into the club to grow the business and look at things like marketing, recruiting a knowledgeable CEO (Steve Ferres?) and a coach who can put in systems and structures that will project more than a season.

My worry is that, yes, we may be able to spend to almost full cap, but how many quality players are Available? Will we be paying over the odds to bring in average players that will be no better than what we currently have but just want paying more? I'd invest in the background stuff to get the club running properly which in turn should help generate funds for the team. Difficult decisions to be made...

OK, yet another crap day but 24 hours on let’s get some more perspective.

I agree with TRB and as Monty once said “you can lose all the battles except the last one” - it’s the last one that wins the war.

First of all I’m amazed anyone thought that in a game where only pride was at stake we’d actually show any. We have not done so all season so what’s changed. If we win next week I can guarantee that in the case of most players it won’t have anything to do with pride.

That said yesterdays game was in purely playing terms one we could do without. At the end of the day is it worth any of the limited talent we have getting injured? So two ex Wakey youngsters prove a point, good for them but it’s pretty empty in the grand scheme of things. Anyone who thinks that if we had kept Stringer and Davey we’d somehow be a better team are totally deluded IMHO and I always liked Davey.

To be honest we don’t deserve to stay up, however that is counterbalanced by my own opinion that the Bulls are not worthy of promotion either. Truth is Leigh should have come up and we should have gone down month ago but RL lost credibility years ago on that one.

My big worry for next week is the lack of Tim Smith. I agree he has never been the player some made out. However watch the las Bradford game - the pack layed the platform but Smith was absolutely the difference. Without him I’m afraid it really is two average Championship clubs fighting it out.

So forget about yesterday, Saturday is all that matters and I just can’t predict it but my support remains solid.
