| The yorkshire post article very well put by Mr Elston. Everytime ive heard this guy speak I have been impressed come on its not a easy job. I know what a good idea is lets slate the RFL like mad before Tuesday and lets see where that will get us... Come on chaps use your loafs. Vasty you are still caught up with the most hated figure in Wakefield you have got to let your love connection with Ted and his Marks And Spencer suits go.. Come on Vasty its over move on find another lover!

Regardless of who loves who etc the message contained in this article is that we have not got the worst application of the 14 clubs, instead of fighting amongst ourselves we should be shouting this message to anyone who will listen over the next few days.

I'm never quite sure how Elston isn't tagged as part of the old regime. He's still the puppet, just Glover pulls the strings now not Richardson. What's his background and his qualifications other than having played the game? If we questioned Di's role, why not him.
Being a good talker and spinning stories…he's just Richard Wright isn't he but without able to convince as many?

which of course can be duly dismissed as a subjective judgement of somebody that hasn't read them all and with a vested interest in our being a success.
what a way to run a sport.

Its always puzzled me too, hooker turned Marketing Manager (I think), promoted to Cue Card reader (sorry CE). Im sure theres many ex players out there who would love to have a CV like his so quickly.
Same applies to his wife, Castleford Tigers dancer come Zoo Magazine model. Moves to dance with Wakefield allegedly had a fall out with many of the other main girls from many years ago who left because she was favoured in all the main decisions (maybe had something to do with her relationship). And then becomes Community Manager or something.
However before anyone has a go, Im not having a pop at her as far as I understand she does a really good job in her role. Just feel if we do get kicked out, they will both depart the sinking ship to pastures new without a moments hesitation.

Bet you can't see any irony in what you have posted can you
Ted has nothing to do with what Glover and Elston are now doing. Though it was Ted who gave Elston the job he now has  Bet you forgot that he was a BIG part of the old regime, you clot.
Open your eyes man - I mean all the OTT banging of drum stuff you do is fine as far as it goes - as are you're relentless Ted jibes every time I post something you don't like- but occasionally you have to make touch with reality. Over the last 6 month, rightly or wrongly as I'm not judging on this occasion WTRLFC has been systematically downsized to be a Championship team. Revenue streams especially those that yield a steady source of income have been increased but all spending let alone increased spending on product has virtually ceased - what does that tell you - ZERO INVESTMENT. It's gone IMO way beyond holding back and waiting for the franchise result, we are shutting down as a SL club for the time being at least.
I think AG would choke on his rich tea if we actually got a franchise as we appear to have made absolutely no attempt to prepare for another SL season. Forget about the ground improvements on offer, SL IMO won't fall for that. We do have a very slim chance of a franchise but IMO it will be for reasons way beyond the clubs control.
I'm not saying what he is doing is wrong, it's not a criticism - it's a statement of the bl**ding obvious to anyone was the ability to read between the lines. The theory I assume is to go into hybernation until NM is on line, whether that's a good idea only history will tell.
So drop the Ted crap and fight all your natural urges and discuss as an adult - where am I wrong?

He is by most people with a brain, NGB4C is a bandwagon jumper with a selective memory who just shouts whatever random view enters his head at any given moment. He's like the Jeremy Clarkson of the forum, if he shouts at it loud enough it will happen as he wants it.

Maybe, maybe not. However from a business point of view it may make sense to play the percentages in this manner and not waste a penny when the odds are seemingly so stacked against us, to preserve as much as possible for the eventuality of second tier rugby.

Indeed, that's why I'm not judging. None on here despite what they may suggest have all the facts. At the end of the days it's Glovers money. However I can't see any other conclusion that can be drawn, it seems much deeper than playing it canny until we are sure we have the nod.

| Come on - be positive, see the positives, we must be positive. I'd rather be positive and then disappointed, than disappointed all week and then disappointed next week. So be positive and don't feel disappointed this week when in fact it might end up being very positive next week. I bet that fella called newgroundbeforecas will like this - he's sometimes very positive but can be disappointed at times, but on this issue he still remains positive - just like me!
