| I'm not suggesting it's the only reason, but it certainly doesn't help; rumour starts here, spreads to Twitter and FB, gets into the media via journalists who these days, get all their snippets from social media. Club Chairman is forced to make a statement denying financial ruin, which is immediately interpreted as a lady protestething too much, and Bob's your uncle - 'Wakefield Trinity' and 'financial ruin' are blithely referred to in the same sentence by anyone with an audience.
Result - a club who had their initial overtures turned down, decides that since the tareget's employer is facing said 'financial ruin,' it's probably worth having another go.
It seems perfectly logical to me; I know I'd do it.

| I think Bens hearts at the club, in his last interview after the game on sky he said he was happy and in the company of a great bunch of players.

I was trying to make the point that out wingers generally speaking are NOT the reason we lost all the games we should have won. You target only Fox and Cockayne - were they the only two who made errors in those games? I think not.
How many games would we have won had not Fox and Cockayne made as many yards upfield for us in EVERY game we play !
All I'm saying is let's have a long look at out defensive strategy before we point the finger at our wingers, often facing a huge overlap and then saying to them 'your fault we lost why didn't you tackle all three of 'em''"
Fox at fault for 2 tries again today, that Foster try was a pathetic attempt my 13 yr old nephew could have done better.
But he scored one so everyone will be happy then?

Not me. Said it after the first Leeds game, my patience has run out with him. He offers enthusiasm yes but he is just a liability in defence.

| Have to agree on the Foster effort - one of the easiest players on the field to tackle, just needed dumping into touch; that was a softy.

Ben had a right pop at foxy in the corner and rightly so to allow foster an easy step over, he should of cleaned him out

Well, I'm far from happy but Fox wasn't the only one to blame for those tries! There's something very wrong with our defensive strategy we just seemed to cave in when Bradford moved the ball. You just carry on blaming individual players if it vents your anger but I honestly think it goes a bit deeper than that!

No, but he was the one to blame for the Foster try. Pathetic effort. Not his greatest game today, although some of the passes he received gave him no chance.
