The problem is a lot of Wakefield fans are 'lashing out' borne out of frustration and lack of updates.
Its a terrible time to be a Wakey fan at the moment and I while I dont agree with lashing out at other clubs
(and certainly not their supporters) you must have a slight idea why.
Don't take it personally, and don't let it bother you.
Its a very sad time.

Agreed. Hide it away somewhere.
To Hudds fans, don't get drawn in. It is not a majority view.

| Of course it's not Shudds/Hull/Catalans/Quins(?) fault we are in the situation we are in...we all know the reason why we are in this situation.....however, put yourselves in our position...your club is on the brink of going belly-up, and the only asset you have left is the players, but there is an investor who is trying his best to arrange a purchase of the club, and the vultures then swoop... Ermm, right we'll have Brough, Brown, Cudjoe and Lunt....£50 enough Mr Administrator ?...fine....Leeds can have Grix, McGillvary and Lawrence for £10 each....Saints can have.....etc etc etc...(Cas can have the burger van !!!).
How would you feel ???

Eddie and Steveo will have to find another club to talk garbage about for one thing.

We understand it only too well but when the administrator is saying this
Quote =#FF0000O’Hara said the sale of players could be avoided if a take-over was completed – and he admitted the decision of a previous prospective owner – Steve Parkin – not to go ahead had contributed to the departures of Obst and Ferguson.
He stressed: “I have got to get the best possible price.
“I have no wish to decimate the club.
“If Mr Glover had conducted himself professionally, or a deal had been done with Mr Parkin when we came out of court on Friday, he could kept who he wanted and done what he wanted.
“He (Glover) has not told me who he wants to keep and who he wants to go. There’s over 30 people on the pay role, non-playing people – at enormous cost.
“And at the moment I still don’t know what the players are entitled to, in terms of bonuses.
“Nobody has come up with any money at all.
“=#0000FFAt the moment costs are clocking up and wages have got to be found from somewhere, let alone finding any money for creditors.
“If players go that reduces the wage bill, which has been the basis of the club’s demise.“If I don’t make these cuts, whoever buys it is going to have to have deep pockets.”'" '"
It seems that the selling of players at the minute that is all that is stopping you going from Administration to extiction.
No one wants that to happen . I would like Wakey to survive. In reality i think that the best you can hope for is a period of rebuilding in NL1. If it is as bad as O,Haras are suggesting it would seem that selling some players now is to help make sure that you do not end up in a worse position in a few weeks.

| Yes things are in limbo at the moment, and we are all very frustrated understandably, but do you really expect us to be grateful to you for helping strip all our assets ????
What do you want next...the pitch (best playing surface in SL...should be worth a few quid !!), the light fittings, floorboards......make us an offer ??

I think the Irish taxpayer own the B of I.
and the IMF own the irish economy so you will probably find the old Belle Vue being sold of to an American investor.

| You no what i love it how all of you blame hudds for everything! If things were the other way round, you'd be happy enough to take our players wouldnt you?! I understand you are all frustrated, you ve got every right to be. You ve been let down by your own club and everything has gone belly up. I hope Mr Glover hurrys up so that you all can start to hopefully get back to rugby matters and not money matters!! But until then best of luck to you guys, because its the fans that matter, you ll always be here!!

No juniors signed by Huddersfield and the Giants have released two players to sign for WTW.
Anyone care to apologise?

To be fair and it was the other way round most on here would have advocating us to do the very same!
Its assistance from another RL club, lets not be churlish about it!

Dicky Thewliss doesn't say they were released to sign for Wakefield, he just says they were released; and one of them could easily be looking at a stretch in the big house, so let's not get too excited.
The anger directed at Hudds was based on taking Fergie for peanuts and trying to do the same with Murphy, whilst the RFL dragged their heels with our new owners fit and proper person sign-off. It felt like getting kicked whilst we were down, and some intemperate language was used whilst emotions were high.

 ...THAT'S BECAUSE WE [u WERE[/u GETTING KICKED WHILST WE WERE DOWN, and now we've just got back up, they want us to be grateful for the kicking we got.
However....much respect to the clubs/fans who are GENUINELY supporting us in our hour of need
