Chester Gone

Quote: Teltry "Well Chester's gone and I wont deny I was in the Chester camp and I'm disappointed but maybe it's the right decision we will see. But I hope the Chester haters don't come on here with more faces than the town hall clock wishing him well when a number of so called supporters made his and his familys life hell on social media. I would like to thank him for his efforts in difficult times and finally I hope some of the personnel at Wakefield take a good luck at themselves.'"

It was the only decision that could be made. I've backed CC and the BOD over this for most of the time and though I did waver at points last year I never went all the way, the benefit of the doubt, etc.

However, the results over this season, especially those both before and since our false dawn against Hudds have been disappointing in the extreme. Again it's not the losses it's the manner of the losses. Far too many winnable games lost due to inexplicable collapses often after the HT team talk, poor signings, poor tactics, an overreliance on past it players, and the list goes on.

If we were just a poor team with poor players it wouldn't be so bad. But we are on paper at least a decent team with decent players. We certainly shouldn't have turned so many possible wins into defeats. If you take the last two seasons including Sunday the amount of HT leads (some big, some small) that we have lost is utterly unacceptable, Bad teams are bad for 80 minutes not just for the last 30.

Sunday finally got rid of any doubt anybody could seriously have had. The same dire second half, same panic, same lack of cohesion and resilience and to cap it all off a petulant interview from CC. At that moment his fate was sealed.
