| heyup flipper - take off the rose coloured specs....

its bleedin obvious the rfl is sky driven... and if you listened to the drivel comin from pinocchio and dolphin teeth this weekend the deal is done.. even phil 'the voice of reason' clarke couldnt find any positives.

| It's taken a while to sift through the overnight posts and take in the current, even bleaker positon we find ourselves in.
It's a shocking place to be; AG has 'bought' the club, but as yet has no control over his purchase. I assume he couldn't even make a counter offer for the players being off-loaded.
I can't help feeling some of this is still pay-back from the Crusaders' administration. How much did they owe HMRC? How much did they pay? Were they too quick in and out for the HMRC to force a sale of assets?
I believe HMRC were rightly upset at the way their situation was handled and now we're feeling the backlash. The administrators are only doing their job. Perhaps the RFL and even O'Hara's got a ticking off from the tax man.
There's no point now looking back and finding someone to blame. There's plenty of time for that in the future. We are where we are. No room for fruitless protests.
Hopefully, we are now at the bottom of the pit, but where do we go from here?
Assuming AG does eventually get control of what's left of the club, we need to show that there is a desire to have a professsional sports club in the City of Wakefield.
What I would like to see, as a loss-leader and to demonstrate support, is for the first home game to be free entry and ticket only.
Get it promoted and get a capacity crowd from the people of Wakefield to show their desire to keep the club. If we can't get that then it's time to shut up shop and sell history books.

As i see it we (probably) will be playing at Oakwell,that ticks all the ground boxes, administration doesn't count, our youth set up is second to none, our community work is good, granted crowd figures aren't great but whats different now as opposed to 3 years ago?'"
the RFL can always use the SOC excuse ie.'despite finding a new backer we consider the potential unstability of the club as a drawback blah blah blah '
don't worry,at least you'll all have a decent beano in Toulouse to look forward to...

| To be honest I wish they'd just put us down and out of our misery. This season will be a complete farce, even if we still have a club to play in SL. I just want to get it over and done with and start in the championship. And all this RFL family bull makes me sick.

| Another really worrying thing is if we keep shipping all our experienced/best players out we'll be left with a load of kids who are going to get murdered every week. Not good for them physically or mentally. i'm relly dreading it.

If we get to the point that we can't sign replacements (including loan players) for those that have left and are down to basically kids then we should just pull out of the league - it won't do them any favours as you say and I don't want wrecking a load of young lads future careers as another thing the club has done wrong.

Not even alcohol can solve this one I'm afraid.
