I'm well aware what's going on, it's the rose tinted bregade that need a reality jab.
Carter's lived off the saviour tag for the last 10 years and while doing so totally ignored the hole the club was sinking in season after season.you can blow smoke up his bottom all you like he's been at the helm for 10 shambolic years

I’m sure it’s has to be right for the club BUT if it didn’t go ahead JM would still be at the helm.
Personally I don’t have a problem with that but someone with rugby knowledge must do the recruiting!
I sincerely hope it does go ahead because if it doesn’t the future looks very bleak to me.


He does not have the resources to fund the club.

Depends at what level you're talking about really. Many clubs run in the Championship on low funds

They were saying in corporate that it went through yesterday a.m., just one resignation pending and potentially dragging its feet, allegedly.

Who's "they"?
If it was announced then it's not allegedly.
If one resignation pending then it didn't go through.
If it was just gossip then we don't know any more than we did yesterday.

We don't want someone to 'fund' the club. We want someone to get the club to a point where it funds itself.

They absolutely don't, and this proves where the problem is.
International conglomerates don't tell everyone they are doing anything until its all agreed.
Carter made the stupid mistake of telling everyone it would be done in 4 weeks before they'd even spoken about what each side wanted to do.
If he'd said nothing they could have just worked at their own speed and stopped all the noise.

Thought he said four weeks after heads of terms were agreed, I.e. spoke about what each other wants out of the deal. The due diligence period has been excessive, although because of who I don't know.

Can not get my head round the fact ,that Carter took over a ground that looked,as though it was just fit enough to get house's built on it, and now, a new owner as just bought the club that is part of a 100,000 million plus business and the East Stand as been sponsored by a building company that is the biggest in G B and yet fans are still having a go at M C ,and J M, Just got to say there are fans who have some kind of vandeta against M C and J M tell me Lampyboy and the rest how long have you watched Wakefield just in S L who was it before that St, Wigan ,Leeds ,could it be Bradford in there a day because you are certainly not true Wakefield fans, Wakefield as a club had sunk in to the ground way before Mr Carter took it on He as got the hole filled in ,set for some one else to rebuild ,from the ground up ,now the foundation have been laid .
