Or throw money at their club, then get 'bored' and do a runner.

| Carter and Minards must be the leaders imo to steer us into the next chapter of our clubs history whatever happens between now and the end of the season.I Would honestly think even if we could have had even the slightest possibility of a new incumbent coming on board before these dramatic turn of events that have unfolded before us , I feel that ship has sailed ,and we are best going forwards with the two chaps who know this club inside out. Hopefully they can steer us through these choppy waters we find ourselves in ,and over the coming months we come out the other side .

The thing is other chairmen can afford to throw money at there club , because most can afford it ,just like pocket money to them Just hope Mr Carter and Mr Minard are willing to stick around if\when we go down Do not think there will be a club without them

That's exactly what you are saying without offering a shred of evidence to back up your criticism, not once when asked have you come across with a decent alternative other than your usual stock answer, we need a CEO this that and tuther, any other CEO would have been sacked etc, etc, well in any other industry which you seem to quote rather a lot, all the CEO would do is harness his team under him, and if the product wasn't selling they'd simply change it, bit difficult in our industry, I've done arguing the point here on behalf of Carter as his record speaks for itself, i get your entitled to your opinion but guess what, so am I,. come back when you've got some justification in what your saying.'"
Come back when you have as well.
Bottom of the league,don't spend salary cap,poor attendance,lack of ambition for numerous years need I say moor unless you think that is good for our club

I never went away snowie. And it’s no different to you popping up on the hudds forum after the CC loss.

| Quote: Trinhomeandaway "I feel you are thinking with your heart in the club and your loyalty to us
Take emotion and loyalty out of it and I think you would come up with a different view.
Do.you think ANYONE "outside" our club thinks that the club has been run successfully for the last 10 years Etc. (They see it without the emotion we have)
We are a BIG city compared to most of the other clubs and need to realise the potential we have not just drift along
Again I'm not saying his heart is not in it or isn't trying his best but is this good enough,we need to look at how and why other clubs have got the investment they have and follow suit'"
I agree on a lot of this we have got more potential than most RL clubs just not enough money to fulfill that potential. Can’t blame Carter for that he’s doing the best he can, the new stand is a game changer in my opinion.
Up the Trin

I think people are being overly optimistic on the difference a new stand will make. Yes it will give us a bit of a financial boost but only if we stay in Super League. If we don't then the loan from the council could potentially cripple us.

I don't have to, it's not me what's bad mouthing him.
Have you watched them for numerous years? this character assassination of yours seems to start at the beginning of the season when you signed up on here.

| Sick of reading that MC should put more money in to the club. He is not a rich man . He had some shares in Yorkshire Traction and made a bit of money when they sold out then invested it in Trinity. He took over as CEO when that dodgy double glazing salesman walked away after nearly bankrupting the club ( and we still didn't win anything when Glover was borrowing money to spend on players ) Those who are advocating he spends what little he has left should put their houses up in security for loans to spend the full cap. MC has kept the club alive and in SL on a shoestring because no one else wanted to put money in. He is an accountant not the owner of a profitable company like vertually every other SL owner . The only criticism I have is that over the last few seasons Salford have done better than us on a similar wage bill and similar crowds. I don't have the answer but I expect it is due to the coaches they have had and their smarter recruitment policy

(but I think you'll find Yorkshire Traction was the family business rather than him just having shares in it ??)
