But is anyone still saying to give Trueman a chance after his injury? I don't think so.

You have this odd bee in your bonnet lately about people giving players a chance. Isn't that normal with new signings? They might turn out to be duds like Pele and Okunbor but at least see them play a few times first. Would you expect to be given a chance in a new job?

Agree. Clifford was playing in a poor team but he took responsibility and made things happen, Sometimes it didn't pay off but he was prepared to have a go. Trueman last season eased himself back after a horrendous injury which is understandable. This season we have been just as bad but he hasn't imposed himself enough when needed. He drifts through games when more urgency and direction is needed. Ben Reynolds doesn't have the ability of Trueman but in the short time he was here was more effective. I wouldn't write him off because I think he's a good player but he should be doing a lot more especially if he's a marquee player. A move to Wakefield would by best for him and the club.

Whether the rumours are true or not about trueman going to Wakey, I'd be looking at moving him on now.
Another 7 plus weeks out injured, after the other long lay offs. He must give biscuit bones (Adam dykes) a run for his money

Feck me , We just cant get anything to go our way this season .

Another Brett Hodgson masterstroke.

To fair to Hodgson, he's hardly been the only person working at the club in the past six or so years to have pulled out a 'masterstroke!' Think he can join a long queue in that regard! But, yep, we can lay this one at his door I guess.

So many people making so many mistakes over so many years. No wonder we are in the mess we are in right now with a long haul ahead of us before we are back on an even keel, let alone sailing the seven seas!!

We'll be back.
Like I said after the end of Radders reign, it might take us another 20 years.......but, we'll be back.

Was talk of much longer than 7 weeks out this morning. He was in a protective boot at Uni. Hopefully he'll get back on the pitch ASAP and have an injury free run at Wakefield.

Cam Scott jumping on twitter and calling the fan base toxic.....nice.

Rightly, some people have questioned Trueman's worthiness of a contract given these injuries and he's jumped in to defend his future Wakefield teammate (hopefully)

The problem being we had already signed him prior to his first injury. So it can hardly be called as anyone’s fault. He was a very promising prospect before that

Looking at the replies and quoted tweets, you can see his point

Well we announced his signing a few days after he got injured in what was ultimatley his final Cas appearance but yes I suppose we'd agreed a deal before the injury. However he only played eleven games in 2020 and eleven in 2021 with IIRC back issues so it was always a risky signing.

I have never understood the bashing of players for being injured. Do people think they go out to sustain serious injuries on purpose? Do they think he enjoyed spending the last two pre seasons at a new club coming back from 9 month lay offs, training on their own in the cold winter months? Just to get grief when they unfortunately sustain another knock.

By all means, question the players worth as a fan, but to directly attack a player is just plain weird.

The area which fans should be blaming is the clear neglect of the clubs back room staff by those in charge for years. It is no coincidence we have had several injury crisis’s in recent years.

As for Cam Scott, very lazy to accuse an entire fan base of been toxic.

Trueman saying on twitter his achilles is fine and he's just pulled his calf? Claims he'll be back before the end of the season

Trueman tweeted he hopes to be back for the last few rounds
