As I said...deluded
That you have the sheer arrogance to believe that we can turn this around within a year and bounce back into super league in the year despite P&R being removed shows the delusion those who think relegation is a positive
The reason we don't have the money is because the current owners have seriously mismanaged the club for at least the past three season. Whether this is deliberate or incompetence is up for debate, but they're the only two options we're left with

Sorry KSC, that is not our approach these days.

It's not a positive, but I'm not that d about getting back in SL when we can't compete. I've said before if we end up a Halifax standard club, competing at the top of the championship then I would enjoy that a lot more than being in SL.

What makes you think we could even compete at that standard?
I've been watching championship rugby a bit more this past couple of seasons as I stopped going to Trinity away games, and at best we are bottom half of the championship at present, and would likely lose any of our slightly better players leaving us even worse.
I can see a very real possibility that we drop straight through the championship into championship 1

If prepared and planned for correctly, with the right people running the club, and making the right decisons, it wont be an easy road, buy its not impossible either.
Invest in your youth, believe on them, some shrewd players with experience at that level and you have a competetive squad.
Its a good time to clear dead wood. Think of some players in our squad who could be freed.

Have you maybe thought it’s more realism over delusional or arrogant? You don’t think we’re going to turn it round within half a season and stay up do you?

I think you’re spot on with it, no Wakefield fan wants to see us playing long term championship rugby but if that’s what’s required to ensure we can move the dead wood on and rebuild then so be it.

| Well what can you say.
I've run out of patience with Proctor. Atoni thank god didn't play.
Smith had some sweful moments.
And to be honest Kelelpi was a bit of a waste of time.
Balanced with some players putting maximum effort in. I really feel for them.

| A further observation…..
Still the ‘anyone who disagrees with a single bullet point of my argument is a deluded idiot’ rhetoric…
I’ve always been taught that, when times get tough we pull together… seems the new mantra is, when times get tough, whinge and find a scapegoat!
And call out anyone who offers a scintilla of a contrary position!
The team are in a hole at the moment and some people seem to revel in that misery, using it to further their own agenda. It makes sharing time and discussion with people on here disagreeable … I understand it… from a socio- psychological viewpoint … but it’s unpleasant.

| Bad call by the coach tonight not to play Gale. The possession we had in the first half on their line was crying out for him to play.

Well that's the million dollar question. Our revenue doesn't hold out for competing in SL, however if the forecast are accurate we have circa £600k of funding we don't currently have. It should see us put together a competitive outfit. Is Applegarth the right man to take charge of that? For me that's a no. We all know the players aren't at the level of SL, but we look so poorly Coached I don't think it would matter if we did have better players.

| Watched the game tonight and admittedly I cannot comment with any authority on your season so far.
But from what I`ve seen one of your problems seems to be Lino.
He kicks and dummies far too many times or should I say at the wrong time.
He doesn`t link between the forwards and the backs for me.
Proctor a complete waste of space.
Was Gale injured as whilst he is nowhere good enough to play at the top I think he will help.
Get your first win from somewhere and you might put pressure on Cas.
Good luck for the rest of the season.
