Nothing wrong with that, it may be blunt and direct but it’s on the mark, can you point out the actual bit you object to?

Let's be clear. They aren't investing, they are donating.'"
No one’s currently donating at Wakefield Trinity and never have!
I do get your point though, anyone buying into a sports club expecting to make money is an idiot

Apologies there.
It was Glover, and I can vouch that he invested, as I recorded the bank transactions.
Sadly, though the best intentions were there with some decisions, things weren’t worked through correctly

I know he isn't now, and hasn't been, I think since November 2018, however when he came out with that, he de definitely was.

Whether you would do better or worse is immaterial.
You questioned Carter's commitment and that is just wrong.
For all we can agree/argue about Lineham/Gaskell/2nd Rowers/Tanginoa/etc, etc, etc = decisions heavily involving Carter, I just don't see how anyone can question his commitment. I think the club (he), has got lots wrong - just an opinion of course.
No wonder he flippantly says he'll sell the club for a quid.

Both him and Ted previously!
Maybe thinking/working things through is one of MC's stronger points?

| You only have to read the Facebook stuff to see what a bunch of absolute so called supporters post. Can you imagine standing next to them as a first time supporter? We will never progress with such a bunch of doom ladened miserable glass half full Sherman Tankers. Yes, things are crap, worse that for a long time. If there is no effort against Leeds then yes, we know what to expect but don’t you think something may be being sorted behind the scenes to help the situation. Well, I hope so.

The facebook pages are comedy gold. One clown after another trying to out-whine the other. Looking for back slaps and brownie points within the group and all done with the best interest of the club at heart obviously!

| I know it is not one person’s fault but those in charge at all levels had better sort it out quickly or if relegated we will have wasted any gains made since promotion. We are on the brink of a redeveloped stadium but outside SL a lot of this will be lost because crowds will fall both home and away support.
I hope we don’t think that promotion is guaranteed because the Championship is the hardest league to get out of.

| When MC et al sold the Yorkshire Traction bus company (which is where I assume his "riches" stemmed from) the purchaser was the Stagecoach bus company which is owned by the Gloag family, one of the richest families in the country. Stagecoach aren't having all that good a time at the moment, I believe, but if MC retained any friendship with the Gloags in the wake of the sale, I wonder if they could direct a fraction of their millions our way. How about having a friendly word Mr C?

Couple of quick points, might I remind you we are not in the championship so your fears are academic and just plain scaremongering, also what do you base your theory on that it's the hardest league to get out of other than if's and buts.

No but I didn’t say we were but it is a possibility don’t you think. If we use your hypothesis then we need not worry until we are relegated then we can look at what we can do but until then denial is the best because no one would notice and to point it out is irresponsible. It is by nature that in all sports the league below the top is the hardest to get out of because of the rewards from promotion.
I hope that explains the situation because you like to ask a question what do you think. I have not problem if you wish to believe everything is going great but please don’t try to blame those who lack your blind faith.

| I'm pretty sure everyone knows that relegation is a possibility.
But we are not in the relegation place yet so it's worth trying to win some more games and see how it goes rather than concentrating on the what bad things might happen don't you think?

I have said it’s better to sort things out before we are relegated but currently our performances have been less than impressive. We should look to win more games but we had over two weeks to prepare for Sunday and yet nothing changed.
I would say you are concentrating on good things but unfortunately for the majority of this season and the 4 previous these have been somewhat missing. I am sorry if it disgusts your red, white and blue outlook but it is something you will need to face unless things change and I don’t know how.
