The club should be informing fans just when they expect to tell their "customers" about next season'"
We have long ceased to be customers I'm afraid.

| It's not a case of demanding a statement it's the fact that like it or not it remains a strong possibility that with time demands our up rooting could take place during the closed season and that would be the end of our association with B V. With only 2 months available from the close of the season to the end of the rent period it's leaving very little time to provide plan an event that would pull in some cash and give the opportunity for fans and the public of Wakefield to get involved.
For me it reflects the total lack of ambition of the club and it's total lack of understanding .
can you imagine any other business putting itself in the situation we find ourselves in.

I don't know if demanding a statement is quite the correct phrasing but, the supporters need some information to make their own plans and if the club don't act very soon indeed, a number of fans who may have got their £250 ready and with no information, they may just put the cash towards the cost of Christmas and although they may still watch Trinity next season, the opportunity for a decent amount of cash to come in during the close season may be lost, which will be a double whammy for the club.
We need something along the lines of "announcement soon" or "Cats to move" or as the thread suggests "Cats to stay".
Silence isn't going to help anyone.

The club would like to announce a forth coming event to be held .on...... at our historic B V ground. Depending on circumstances it may be the last opportunity for fans and the general public of Wakefield to visit our historic home .
More details will be made available shortly along with a full list of activities.

| There really should have been a decison made by now and even Carter himself said it needed sorting by the end of August at the latest to be able to put plans in place. But i'm afraid my interest in the way this club has been run has been eroded to the extent where after 30-odd years i couldn't care less where it plays next year or in what divison, i won't be getting a season ticket either way. I've spent the money that me and the Mrs normally shell out on that and the shirts etc on some flights for some winter sun instead, at least i know i'll enjoy that because for the last couple of years watching this now joke of a club has been nothing but painful and quite frankly just isn't worth the stress anymore. It just doesn't feel like my club anymore but is being run at the behest of a guy trying to claw some of his money back, something he admitted on here a while back. I know there are those who like to blow smoke up his backside and that is their choice and i respect his abilities as a money man but plenty don't like the guy and the attitude he has with fans. Never has there been such negativity around the place and the division between him and the many of the fans is a cancer that will bring the club down sooner rather than later. Some say he saved the club and without him it wouldn't be here now. Technically maybe so, but i don't quite agree with that fully. For me he hasn't saved it, he has just prolonged the slide into oblivion for a couple of years in which time the club has become even more of a laughing stock to the outside world.

| I dont blame MC for wanting his money back but he would be more likely to get it if he didn't insult investors and genuine supporters on Twitter and instead communicated with the fans through carefully thought out press releases. Just a suggestion?

| Much as it pains me to say it, it is hard to disagree with a lot of your sentiments there, Boyem

Probably, the most sensible post of the season

| Boy email I think like many you do care. You are one of many that have expressed the ßame view. The easiest option is to walk away . I hate the path the club seem to be on at the moment but I suspect like me you have trinity in your veins.
Frustration doesn't come close to my feelings I'm angry and totally xx off at the total lack of engagement the club provides. Owners come and go, players come and go . Every club has its hard core supporters Trinity are in danger of loosing a significant number of season ticket and loyal fans.

| All this cloak and dagger stuff is beyond dull.
YCP lost any right for their machinations to be kept confidential when their intent to defraud HM Inspector and the Wakefield public became clear; for mine, MC would have come out of this in a much more positive light if he'd have spoken to the media and made it clear that the club were playing a straight bat, whilst WMDC and YCP were colluding to avoid their responsibilities. And Rodney Walker, it would appear, has been about as much use as a chocolate fireguard.

| Quote TRB="TRB"If and when the outcome of the current discussions are known, an announcement will be made. At that time, perhaps, some of the discussions will be revealed and some of you at least will then perhaps appreciate just how difficult this has been on those involved at the club.
MC does not want to be the man who takes this club out of BV, but he also does not want to see this club continue to run in the circumstances he inherited and have, in part at least, put is where we currently are.
I don't envy anyone involved in this process!'"
By the time the club get around to telling us what's going to happen there'll be hardly any one left to listen and half of them won't care anymore.

| Negotiations are ongoing - its complicated and both sides are keeping their powder dry in order to get the best possible deal they can. Whats so difficult to understand about that?
Everyone who is even remotely interested should already be aware that this could be our last match at Belle Vue - anyone who doesnt either doesn't care or is so far detached that they arent bothered. You can't market a match as 'possibly our last one here' who gives a stuff about that? If you are that bothered bout being at the last Belle Vue match than get yourself down on Saturday, then again for the Million pound match if its still not resolved and we are actually in it!
