I can't believe that some people are praising Newton for holding his hands up and being honest. He was only honest after he was caught! I hope he gets the full 2 year ban and the club then take similar action to what Chelsea did with Mutu.

I hope they don't. I hope they do whatever's now necessary to terminate his contract and end their association with the player in a dignified manner. The club needs to concentrate on more important things, like the next franchise application, and the team needs to focus on continuing the excellent start to the season. Let's not get bogged down with sideshows like this.
On the positive side (again), those fans - and I include myself amongst them - who never liked Newton as a player before he began his association with Wakefield, and had to suspend belief by supporting him as a player wearing our colours, can now go back to their original opinion of him without any conflict of emotions. That'll do for me. |

| Quote **Lynx**="**Lynx**"I agree wholeheartedly that it's Newtons problem and he has been incredibly stupid, or at best niaive, and he's the one that should face the consequences, but we all know certain bits of the media seem to love nothing more than to have a go - we have seen all the qotes about "Wakefield Trinity Wildcats Terry Newton tests positive ........." etc. etc. - and in some peoples eyes Trin will be implicated and mud sticks - which is wrong but can happen to a team when the fault is an individuals. We've already read and heard silly comments like "Trin ought to be docked the points they won when Newton was in the team".
I just was asking what everyone thought the Trinity management ought to do, if anything, to stress their disapproval of what's happened. I tend to agree with other posters - cancel his contract but as he has now actually admitted taking something he shouldn't, do they take a stand now or wait until the formal ban if it comes?'"
I wouldn't worry too much about mud sticking to the club given that us and most other clubs have players who have got themselves into drug related or violence related trouble. Hardly a squeaky clean game with an untarnished image.
I assume the club will be taking advice on how to handle this situation regarding bans and cancelling of contracts. |

| Quote **Lynx**="**Lynx**"What's your opinion on how the Club should react now Terry Newton has admitted his guilt via the solicitors statement? What should Trinity do to try and repair the reputation of the club, bearing in mind instead of the press, etc. talking about Trinity's great start to the season and the win over the Whinos, its just all about "Drugs cheat Newton"? Do we keep a dignified silence or do we issue a statement, condemning the use of banned substances for whatever reason - zero tolerance, etc. and do we tear up Newton's contract?'"
what is there to rebuild, wakey didnt force the loon to take the stuff, but the club will be tarnished by the uneducated, we still get it at cas over hudson, even though he served his ban
that said , i still dont like wakey and i suppose a lot of you feel the same way about cas

Simply because the =#FF0000test was taken in November and the =#FF0000results came back the day he was suspended. |
