I know we want one but this blinkered idead that it will keep WTRLFC afloat on its own is madness, its important but if people dont want to watch the product it will be full of bloody cobwebs in 6 months!'"
Chappie, you're right, but the two go hand in hand.
Without the new Stadium we will not get a franchise is 2012 and there is not a cat in hells chance of getting back even if we manage to get a new Stadium later on for the 2015 franchise round. If we do not get a planning consent in time to secure building and a franchise for 2012 then the club is finished. We have sold the ground and received part of the proceeds so we will either have to pay the developer back, but with what, or more likely fold. It cannot be stressed enough how important the Stadium is to our future.
That said, I agree with you about what's on the field. We are in the entertainment business, if we don't entertain then people stop coming as I fear they are already doing. We have to sort out the product on the field or we may be watching a team in a nice new but empty Stadium - but not for long.
I know I'm stating the obvious but at the moment I'm a bit brassed off. I've not been today, which is not like me, but I just could not face a 3 hour drive down to watch my team get beat (I could have been wrong and boy would I have been happy) and then 3 hours back up the M1 feeling sorry for myself (and all the other fans).
I've never felt so depressed and even the thought of a holiday to Florida is not cheering me up as they said on the news that the last time this Volcano errupted it lasted 6 months.
I think I'll have a drink or two.

| We were very poor today. There didn't seem to be much creativity from the half backs. The only bright spot I could see today was Korki. He ran it in hard and seemed to make yards every time.
I really don't know where our season is going (perhaps it's already gone). We don't seem to have any creative spark. As of now I don't feel like going to the KC next Friday, but ask me again next Thursday

We may or may not have a club without it, and I'm not on here to undermine anyone, but we also have a club to watch until that happens, and we all know our gates could be improved.
A marquee signing (or at least a decent sized tent!!) could lift gates, morale and our season!!!!

| We need a stadium but no good if team on field not performing, we need more creativity, better defence, less errors, also, keep John Kear, if he goes who will we appoint ?, maybe its time to drop a couple of players and put a bit more youth in there, some people say too early to blood them etc, Leeds, Wigan and Saints did it and it worked.

| Quote: RDM "We can all say what if. What if Newton hadn't been stupid & taken HGH? What if we hadn't sold Brough? What if Mrs Tronc hadn't been "homesick"? But the fact is we have to go with the 17 that JK picks on the day.
Today's 17 weren't at the races defensively in the first half, but they improved in the second (no doubt after a bollocking from JK). We had a chance to win the game where we had a 3 on 1 overlap but thanks to "Captain Fantastic" got try line fever and blew it.
Yes it was me shouting at JD after the match. I'll give him credit for coming over, accepting his mistake and apologising for it, but that's all we have to show for our cup campagin this year - an apology.
JK has a hell of a lot of work to do if our season is going to be brought back on track. Leeds are starting to perform to their usual standards and if we don't improve quickly I fear that Wakey fans going to Murrayfield will see us concede a cricket score.
If players are going to be brought in they need to be brought in very damn quickly, if not the players should be told that they are the one's who need to work out who's going to bring some creativity on to the pitch for the rest of the season. If they can't do that this year, there'll be little point bringing creativity in next year because we'll have already sealed our fate in the applications for a 2012 franchise.'" actually mate i was stood at the side of you. you were an embarrassment. screaming abuse at the players you profess to support. you crapped yourself when jd walked over. your a.se fell out. the guy looked at you as he walked all the way over. you shut your mouth and said quietly "well you didn't play very well , did you ?" in a pathetic child like little voice. the guy said to you "whats your problem, i made a mistake" . he made no apology, you are lieing. he acted in a proper manner like a proper man. you acted like a lout and should be ashamed. actually jd had a decent game. if you are going to say things on here then at least keep it factual and truthfull, you get more respect that way.

| Did it say on the radio how young Davy is? as he left the field there was blood streaming from his nose/mouth area. We seemed to loose some organisation around the play of the ball when he went off.

Of course I stopped shouting when he was 2 feet away from me - there was no need to shout for him to hear me............or are you Dom Jolly and speak at a stupid volume regardless of how near to you the other person is?????
I'm not going to get into the who said what - I know what I said & what JD said in response.....what you could be bothered to hear I couldn't care less about.
I am not embarrassed about showing my disapointment this way or do you suggest that we accept abject performances like today's with a pat on the back and a simple "well played lads but hard luck". As fans we go to a lot of effort to support the team and the least we deserve is to see 80 minutes of continued effort in return. The first half performance was disgraceful and we didn't get a single point out of the 10 minutes we had an extra man.
We desparately missed Morrison and given that we really on have Latu to come back into the team next week I can't see us winning a game for some time. Gordon Brown probably has a greater chance of re-election than Wakefield have of making the play-offs at the moment - of those I don't know which worries me more.
