Bloody hell...a rugby league journalist posting something positive about Wakefield Trinity

That'll be him out of work before the end of the week for not toeing the party line

And people are so far up the clubs backsides that they will lap this up while the club get rid of Corey Hall. A lot of our fans are deluded and need to wake up and smell the coffee, the board are a joke and need to go, as are the coaching staff.

And be replaced by whom, exactly ??

You're right, there is a great long line of people just waiting to take over the reins and pump millions into the squad. Also there are an abundance of top quality coaches chomping at the bit to take control of this grand club. What are we waiting for?!

They do not put any money in themselves and the club is self sufficient as they have said many times so in theory anybody could do it.

You used the word "deluded" above....how very appropriate

I was being a bit too general when I said anybody could do it but surely somebody who knows the game should be there. At the moment there is nobody on the board who has a Rugby background and we have an extremely inexperienced coach. It was a recipe for disaster and it is proving that way.

My point still stands that as they do not put any money in that to run the club as it is now that anybody could do what the current board are doing.

Great, which one of us is going to give up their time for free?

I think you'll find that all of the board members have put money in....that's why they're on the board !!

As has been said numerous times on here, none of them are Ken Davey, Paul Caddick, Eamonn MacManus etc etc, so until this mysterious, money-bags benefactor comes along, we are where we are. None of us like it (as I'm sure neither do the afore-mentioned board members you like to slag off) but I'm sure they are trying their best to protect their investment. Time will tell if their best is good enough though !!

The BOD's have to be accountable for the progression of the club on and off the field do they not? We're a shambles on the pitch.

We've just swapped our best player for a squad player at another club. If we're self sufficient surely there's no need to strip the assets?
