I went into bottom bar at half time and stayed there to get some food and even the till followed the efforts of the wakey team and packed in

"This is Wakefield"

Unfortunately, the whole day was a bit of a joke - the staff walking on to the pitch in a half-hearted, slightly embarassed way, the potical half time entertainment that never actually happened and the total and utter tripe served up by the players.

From the outside looking in, who would've thought that earlier this week, we achieved what appeared to be utterly impossible?

I can only assume that everyone at the club was either still hung over, or still reeling from the franchise decision.

I wouldn't blame it on John Kear. He's kept Wakey in SL despite a total lack of financial resources. The club's SL future is saved and then he's immediately shown the door. Marvellous. Wakey fans should remember that Kear won the C Cup for Hull and then got sacked for a 'poor start' to the following season. Hull brought in an Aussie coach to improve on JK's clearly inadequate coaching skills. Step forward Peter Sharp fans, and explain to us what an improvement he was on Kear. If he winds up at Cas, and you get the next Sharp, you'll only have yourselves to blame if Cas turn up at Belle Vue and give you a tonking.

I really hope he gets the Cas job and better still allow him total control over their recruitment

We didn't make him apply for the Catalans job or say last week that he was interested in the Cas job.

Who would you blame the poor predictable tactics and team selection on then if not Kear?

well said. most people didn't think we would start the season never mind come from 20 points down and beat cas, beat hudds get at least half a dozen wins with a handful of young lads, a new owner, debts paid. new 3 year franchise. develop belle vue and newmarket is still on the cards. if someone had offered us this before the season started we would have snatched their hand off. everything after the franchise is a bonus. as someone else said. enjoy the ride. t.w.a.s

how can anyone stick up for the playing staff absolute garbage they should be ashamed of themselves murphy and amor tried the rest should never pull a shirt on again the worst performance i have ever seen

I think that about sums it up for me. The terrible standard of rugby coupled with there being nothing to play for, bar pride which we don't seem to have, makes for a very dull afternoon.

Think you're being a tad harsh with the criticism here people.

Let's be realistic. If the two worst teams in SL can't produce a game of stunning boredom, who can?

The Crusaders weren't too bad, Wakefield were appalling. Trinity were that bad they even made Tony Martin look like Greg Inglis.

I keep thinking back to the 2001 side. On paper, they where prob worse than this years team, but they never gave up.

You sack the coach two days after the franchise announcement look what message that sends to the team.... new broom and all.... Crusaders had a point to prove as well... but all those players who have struggled all season but turned over a few teams including mine, deservedly so on the day too, suddenly see the door out with Kerr getting 'sacked' what do you guys expect... lots of speculation about a new coach, what players are coming in.... i know they are professional and should give 100% but with the dole queue for some and Championship for others now.... would you put your body on the line ?

When did we sack Kear?

Not going again while Kear is in charge
