I get this totally. MC currently runs unchallenged, and you can just imagine him asking Verity to use less paper clips with impunity. He needs that check and balance in his strong character.

The conversation I had with Willie a couple of months ago, when i was doing some work for him, was that he wanted to up the intensity of training, and was advised not to, due to the fear of a 2016 style players revolt.

I’ve seen Lewis do that on tv before. He’s minutes from death until the other bloke is binned then he jumps up like Del Boy out of the wheelchair “I must admit there is some feeling coming back”!

He probably would say that?

Probably an element of handbags in it, but my info came from a former 1st team player, in great depth.

It is what it is now I guess.

So, what is Bretherton doing these days?

Going to every home and away game as a supporter and feeling totally upset at seeing how the team is performing.

He’s fine hopefully, dangerous crusher tackle penalised appropriately.

Well the bloke who did it had already given away two needless penalties prior to that. he is a lone player and if he gets a ban, he won't be missed after what I saw last night

I meant more in the administrative side of RL somewhere.

Come on Eastern. You are better than that.

So he's the saviour and watching home and away but isn't getting involved?

I'm sure he's a great guy. I'm just pointing out that Scarlet's original post was just random trolling based on nothing but a desire to put Carter or the club down.

Changing his name to Brereton.

God's honest truth. Also look at the coaching set ups he has seen as a player and on coaching teams, between leaving Wakefield as a player in 2001, and coming back in the coaching set up nearly 20 years later.

We're so far behind others at this level, and not just financially. Like it or not, our time has ran out.

Just out of interest does anyone know why Morgan Smith, Jordy Crowther and Harry Bowes weren't Playing last night?

Were injured against Salford ,
