We’re currently behind Leigh and Salford and at the foot of the table.

| Quote: coco the fullback "I posted about this elsewhere.
It's specifically the first 6 games of the season, including cup games (even against lower league opposition)
I think you need to take into account the teams we have played this year - exclusively all in last year's top 6. (only missing Warrington)
It would be interesting to know if we've ever played only top 6 teams in the first 7 fixtures before?
Edit
Eh? What have last seasons finishing positions to do with this season? It's 17 against 17 every week against teams we've beaten on numerous occasions in any given season. Who are we "allowed" to beat then? Why have we got to take into account who we are playing? Total nonsense! We blew it against Leeds and Hull, played poor in the second half against Wigan and St Helens having matched them in the first half. And we've lost twice to Catalans, outmuscled in the cup game and went toe to toe last night. But for a dodgy call by Kendall we'd have probably won the game.
Let's have less of the excuses and more fight in the traditional Wakefield Trinity style. We seem to give up now when we concede a couple of scores. Where is the leadership, the fire in the bellies? I'm seeing plenty of effort and I applaud that but come on, we should be doing a whole lot better than this.

| Re funding, its only gunna come when we get more support, or those that already do pay more. As many are demanding additional funding for the team, can I expect not to see (when we can actually get to BV) people moaning on here about paying £5 for a pint.
As an aside, is this not the most expensive squad we've ever put together (Pearman debacle notwithstanding)?

Plenty of fans forfeited their season ticket money to help the club last season. The club has just recently said that there's been a 15% increase in Commit 6 membership.
Quite a few players left at the end of last season, with only a couple coming in.
That 15% increase indicates that the fans want the club to succeed but won't last long whilst the same structure is in place.

| I think the players are good enough
I don’t think it’s a funding issue though I understand the argument and it goes without saying some big names would help but I don’t think we can afford that
I think Chester has lost the dressing room personally
We need a new coach to bring fresh ideas and give them confidence
The players are good enough
Our squad is good enough to produce much better performances than we are

NOT AS MUCH as nearly every other team due to the fact they have higher attendance than us

I don't think he's lost the dressing room either, the effort wouldn't be there which for me it is. I think he's just run his course.

Lampyboy is absolutely correct
The Club/management have to go out and get it/find it,that is the role of the owners/Ceo/management,do you think other businesses just say "where is this money coming from" they go out and get it thats how business works !!
We are a city with big business all around us, the role of management is to find it,do you think Leeds manage to get the funds in they need or did the new stands Just appear out of nowhere,
If we are happy to just allow "there's no money" then we will get what we deserve,I can't think of any other business that would allow this to happen

Leeds got a loan from the council, much like what Trinity have done. They have a large supporter base meaning they are more attractive to sponsors/partnerships.

The backer for the stands was actually legal and general,do you.think this funding just appeared or donyou think the management were doing their job and actually went and found it ?
As for a large supporter base this comes from doing well.
You need everything in place proffesionaly to achieve all this do you think we have? (Genuine question)
Well run businesses find what they need by being good in negotiating and selling their brand to backers/sponsors/supporters Etc..
As said before if people just accept "there's no money" then we will get what is deserved
The old saying if you keep doing what you have always done you will always get what you always got.

| Think the effort is there Last night was down to mistakes at important parts of the game .Think the last few games have shown why we brought in the loan winger from Huddersfield .B J B is still a better winger than some we have on the books .
