Can't or won't? And is there a time limit on his 'generosity'.

Well, if that’s correct, that’s one hell of a payout, well done Wigan  .
I can’t believe an Aussie club has shelled out at all. Is he off to Salford  .

As of this moment no outstanding CCJ's the club is aware of, the issue with Inland revenue has been resolved and in hand.
Also renegotiated rates for risings shop otherwise we would have been out of their..

Cannot recall any money back as per agreement with the RFL, to keep our status.

| Big message is.
The quality of the squad is dependant on number of season tickets
Basically if your waiting to see who we sign or who we sell to buy your season ticket then you will see players sold
If you want to retain what we have then you have to get your season tickets, club 1873, foxy bingo
Chicken & egg scenario
But which one are you?!

Pretty much it.
The club will compete next season.
The budget is 1.1M based on 3k season ticket sales.
The contracted players are currently expected to stay (possibly excluding BenC,)
Anything over 3k season tickets will mean a bigger budget for players.
tell everyone you know to get a season ticket/join the 1873 lottery/join foxy bingo (code WTW) now!
1000+ season tickets so far, numbers still pretty low for lottery and bingo

| Glad macron are back supplying the kit they offer a good range of training gear that we lacked last season with FiTa + they supply half the football league and top euro RU clubs so they know what they're doing.

| MC has chosen the kit. Home is white. Perhaps expect something different for away, he says he'll take responsibility for it ...
says samples are decent quality and sizes.

| Quote RebelRebel="RebelRebel"One piece of info missing from all this (seeing as how the Supporters' Trust was behind the event). Where does this leave the ST? Shares in the club?'"
The Trust have been working with Michael Carter on some plans around shares/ownership however things are still not quite finalised and it was decided that we didn't want to present details until we know exactly how it might work.
It was decided to carry on with the meeting anyway as there was obviously a huge amount of interest (judging by the number of people who turned up) and it gave Michael and Chris Brereton a chance to introduce themselves and provide some pieces of good news
Most of it has been covered here but we are assured that the club is alive and kicking.
We will have a club at the start of next season.
We will still have a club at the end of next season.
The quality of the team will depend on how much the people of Wakefield want it.
The club has set a playing budget worked out on selling 3000 season tickets. If they sell more then anything above the 3000 will go to supplement the playing budget.
At present a little over 1000 have renewed their season tickets so you can see what is needed.
Hopefully the Trust and the Club will be able to bring more details around investment/shares etc in the very near future

| Quote The Devil's Advocate="The Devil's Advocate"During the meeting was the question raised regarding the nightmare scenario?
By that I mean if the club, in its current guise, was to go belly up & the Administrators were appointed.
If someone came in last minute ala Glover, would those at the top table like to hazard a guess as to if season tickets would be honored ala Glover, under a new regime?
I suppose I could half answer my own question & say, some people are prepared to take a punt just to keep the club afloat. Many however will think twice about splashing out a reasonable amount of money, when there’s no guarantee of seeing a single game for it!'"
Michael Carter assured us that this is not a scenario that will happen - the club will be here for next season, but the quality of the team we can field is dependent on supporters buying season tickets.
I got the impression that administration would mean that the security that Michael and Chris Brereton have put up to secure the loan from the RFL (ie their houses) would be lost. Michael and Chris have no intention of losing their houses.
People hanging back on renewing season tickets to see who will stay and who will be sold are likely to be the cause of players having to be sold. Chicken and egg - wait and see and lose players, show some faith and renew and we can retain and add to the currently contracted players.
