Correct. Be careful tho Khlav. You will be accused of being a 'biter' for responding to his trolling!

| Quote: Rogues Gallery "Here's a thought.
Newton was injured late last season. What if he ill advisedly took some "drug" or "medicine" to help him with the injury.
Remember it has happened before with Kieron Cunningham, so until the actual charges / results are confirmed it is probably better we keep our powder dry.
Let's wait and see before hanging him out to dry.'"
Well said Sir, Unfortunately you Sandal and a few more are in a minority this morning What times the hanging?

| Regardless of the fact that it is one of our players in the spotlight at the moment I think it's great that so many tests are done so frequently on people playing this sport. I do however think that three and a half months is far too long to decide to issue punishment and needs speeding up! This should have and surely could have been resolved prior to the start of the season.

Or at least resolved in the next few days as you now have a player who you cannot play, who cannot train, who cannot have any involvement with the club, and you cannot sack, taking up a valuable players spot and salary cap space.
Why on this earth should it take ANOTHER 3 months to solve this?
As for those who think there should be some kind of club sancition, they are just mad. I'm no Wakey fan (although I did work there for a while) but why should th fans and the rest of the people involved with the club suffer because of one persons madness (if indeed he is guilty)

| Quote: Head High Tackle "If found guilty they should all be tested, as should any club who has a player guilty of failing a drugs test. A perfectly sensible request to make.'"
so the fact that 3-5 players from the same testing schedule past the test is of no relevance ? why not test all his previous clubs players ? your looking for bites sweetheart are you not?

| Quote: Head High Tackle "What part of 'If found guilty then the club has to take some responsibility' don't you understand?'"
The if you unfortunately missed out when claiming the club had failed to control the player.
But enough about you. Back to Terry Newton.
The length of time required to deal with this issue is ridiculous, as Paxo states. It just leaves things to fester, to the detriment of the game, the club, and quite possibly the player too, if innocent of any deliberate wrongdoing.

| Leave the Trolls to their do their homework. They'll be in trouble when they go back to school.
For me, it's disappointing that something like this has put the spotlight on the club.
For the player, I'm disappointed he's in this position, but I'd like to wait and see what the results are and what the drug was. It doesn't necessarily make a difference to the verdict, but it does make a difference to how I feel about it.
Right now, Terry Newton is part of the Wakefield Trinity family. He's been accused of something, let's at least support him while the results are not clear.....by not jumping to conclusions.
When the time comes that we do know, then the club and fans will have to decide whether he is worthy of their individual support.
At that point there will still be people accusing or trolling, but the Wakefield family should still bond together in support of the club, whether TN is part of the family or not.

| Quote: DoubleAone "The reason I raised my concerns is that one week he is reported has having a possible season long injury...a torn bicep IIRC and misses a game
and the next we hear a radio interview on Saturday where it is stated he makes a "remarkable" recovery.
I do hope for the sake of the game as a whole the club are not culpable as well.'"
The injury was sustained at Leeds on Boxing Day 26th December - the test was a month earlier on 24th November.This information should remove any doubt you may have !
If Newton is guilty of wrongdoing then he owes a huge apology to the club,his teammates,and those who do magnificent work in the community who have now had their work made much more difficult and sponsors of the club will also not be best pleased.
As of this time he is not guilty of any wrongdoing.

| Quote: TRB "[sizeThread Cleaned Up!
No one has been found guilty of anything - yet.
Not any player or any club. This board will not become a kangaroo court for any individual or for any club.
Any posts which could, in any circumstances, be deemed to cross this line, will be removed - and the poster either warned or banned themselves.
No leniency! [/size'"
And again cleaned up!
Please ensure that nothing is put on here suggesting anything other than what has been reported.
We do not know what, if anything, TN has been found positive for, let alone the details of when, where and how.
Final waring to all - stay within the rules please!

No it doesnt
Allegedly he was injured at the end of the 2009 playing season which predates the test and then apparently injured again on Boxing Day.
So IMHO my question still stands.
