| Simple answer. If the players want to stay full time professionals at wakefield then win the next game.

| The statement actually says the club would be forced to CONSIDER going part-time if relegated. For goodness sake stop making mountains out of molehills !!!!!!!! and concentrate on Saturday, God knows what folk will moan about if we actually win.

| Its not a moan its quite simply a response to a bloody ill timed statement. Your right cocker the club should concentrate on the game any statements can then be made after the game.
I would have thought if anything had to be said the club would have been better offering a positive response that the players, coaching staff, and supporters could have taken some heart of. Saying the club would be forced to consider does not cut it. The club would have been better keeping stum.

| Quote: lampyboy "I still think that if Mc did make the quote reported he must in future stay well away from the press. Why would he make such a quote and give the Bradford paper an exclusive.
To say if relegated the squad would go part time is the totally wrong message to send out, when other clubs in the championship have built and invested in squads for next year and are about to go full time.
How can the statement be defended by any Wakey fan .
How do you think the full time players at the club are likely to take to it. how do you think any junior player will greet the news, whats the present squad attitude likely to be.
I hope this matter can be cleared up quickly .'"
He didn't just make that quote. He did a full articles worth discussing it.

In which he still didn't say we would go part time - just that it would be one option that would have to be considered.
Classic case of a selective headline used to make a statement of the bleeding obvious sound interesting; got to love local paper hacks!

| I think we will win tomorrow, but if we do not I fear for the future of the club. I honestly think that if we do go down that is it & we will never, short of massive investment, get back into SL. Looking at the clubs in the Championship - this seasons top four plus Fev - I cannot even see us getting into next years middle eight. Tomorrow is a pivotal moment in the history of this club.

| Whilst not greeing with all SP posts, I do think that there is an element of truth caused by MC's lack of engagement with the fans.
Like it or not, the fans are customers of the club & without them we would not survive. There as to be some better way to engage & bring fans back. To be honest for the last couple of years I do not feel like it is our club. Say what you like about Ted & Mr Glover, at least I felt at the time that it was our club & I was part of it. This may only be a perception, but a perception can be as bad as reality.
It's okay Snowie et al having a go at SP, but that is how he feels & he is entitled to that view. I bet he is not the only WTW fan who feels that way.

You can doubt it all you want but it would appear he did say it. Doubt t&a would make it up and leave itself open to a libel claim.'"
Hull paper quoted us as having signed Rankin, even ringing Michael Carter to say we had. Guess what, we hadn't!

I'll bet he is. OK Wilzay and Klav come close but they do show occasional glimpses of sunshine.
My guess is that he's reincarnated NGB4C, who similarly drifted into an ever tighter spiral of pathetic angst.

| One reason I aint bought a paper for years you cant even know if its the correct date on the bloody thing they make that many things up and change things to meet their own agenda. What happens happens its out of our hands well almost we can still play a part by supporting and being loud and proud

| Your loyalty is admirable if a little misplaced but all clubs needs supporters like you. I expect you will go whatever division we are in sadly you are a minority and human nature demands success hence our sharp drop in attendances.
I note that he does suggest that if the club are relegated then it depends how many season tickets we sell which will decide if we drop to part time. He is once again passing the blame onto the supporters because how can you buy a season ticket if you don't know which players you will be supporting. It's a classic catch 22 situation.
I hope your faith is justified and he took the action he did for the right reasons and not just to save money. I suppose tomorrow will tell and yes it is sensible to have a plan B but not to make it public but I think that's more an ego trait.
