| Quote ="The Clan"Give me a break!
Crusaders went into admin owing in excess of 2.2Million and the only debt carried forward was to the RFL(hello.....conflict of interest....hello)!
The owners who applied for administration did so to clear the debt so they themselves could buy the club back debt free (apart from the deal to pay the RFL). Not only did they make zero attempts to stay out of administration they actively sought it without any other avenues being explored.
Wakefield on the other hand staved off two winding up orders earlier in the year and did their best to avoid the third by agreeing a payment term with HMRC which was withdrawn because of the RFLs compliance in seeing Crusaders avoid their tax bill via administration. Doomed it may have been but at least the club tried to raise the money by hook or by crook after the RFL had refused to loan them the £350K that would have helped them avoid all the bad publicity the sport has suffered through Wakefields situation, by the way, more double standards from the RFL!
Finaly we have the old BoD applying for administration as a last resort to save the club and not as a mechanism to wipe off debts so they can buy it back for a song and be debt free.
Another BIG consideration that Wakefields debt is less than one third of the Crusaders debt.
Will any of this make a difference to the decision on how many points Trinity are deducted?
No!'"
Can the RFL remove us from SL before the end of the season or do we just play and get slaughtered for playing our kids in a mans game?? no offence meant to our lads |

The fact that you describe your posts on an internet message board as 'my style of prose' speaks directly to the matter at hand. |

What was that quote the other day
The RFL feel very ' paternal ' about their member clubs ?
It would seem the ' bank of Dad ' is not open at the moment |

Is this some surreal world where the last 30yrs of excess and flagrant mismanagement never happened ?
With the right people in place Wakefield Trinity could and should have built on their success of the sixties to turn the club into the predominant exponants of the game in the 21st Century.
At the very least, Castlefords demotion to the championship should have given the club an opportunity to stake a claim for being the prime candidate for a New ground.
Do you seriously think that the massive cuts in public spending that Wakefield Council have published last week will not involve reconsideration of their position on the Newmarket Site development ?

How much is Newmarket costing Wakefield Council? |

| I have never been as fed up as I am now, 30+ years supporting this once great club and we are now just a laughing stock.
Lets just scrap this season. I dont think I have the heart to watch promising youngsters go out on the field and get thrashed week in week out in front of poor crowds, being outnumbered by away support every week.
Its too painful and and too raw.
RIP Wakefield Trinity.  |

errrm let's think about it then.
Massive cuts in public spending. A Community stadium with associated sports facilities available to all to use for no cost as it is being paid for by the developer, and much needed employment in the associated development.
Yes, you're right, I can see how they would choose to cut back on some of the huge amount they are spending on Newmarket. Maybe they'll choose to cut it back by 50 or even 100% that will make a huge difference to them.
Just remind me again as it's quite a while since I left school but what exactly is 50% or even 100% of NOTHING??
