It won't be the worst thing for super league, but it would be for the club. Anyone who thinks that demotion is a positive is deluded

Really? For a while now it’s been men against boys, we don’t have the funds to revamp the squad in full.

Would preparing properly, stepping back and making a real go for it in the championship be a worse approach than struggling to post points each week?

A season in the Championship hasn’t gone too badly for the likes for Huddersfield or Hull KR.

As I said...deluded

That you have the sheer arrogance to believe that we can turn this around within a year and bounce back into super league in the year despite P&R being removed shows the delusion those who think relegation is a positive

The reason we don't have the money is because the current owners have seriously mismanaged the club for at least the past three season. Whether this is deliberate or incompetence is up for debate, but they're the only two options we're left with

Leigh must be rubbing their hands together having to play us four times.

Sorry KSC, that is not our approach these days.

It's not a positive, but I'm not that arsed about getting back in SL when we can't compete. I've said before if we end up a Halifax standard club, competing at the top of the championship then I would enjoy that a lot more than being poop in SL.

What makes you think we could even compete at that standard?

I've been watching championship rugby a bit more this past couple of seasons as I stopped going to Trinity away games, and at best we are bottom half of the championship at present, and would likely lose any of our slightly better players leaving us even worse.

I can see a very real possibility that we drop straight through the championship into championship 1

If prepared and planned for correctly, with the right people running the club, and making the right decisons, it wont be an easy road, buy its not impossible either.

Invest in your youth, believe on them, some shrewd players with experience at that level and you have a competetive squad.

Its a good time to clear dead wood. Think of some players in our squad who could be freed.

Atoni
Proctor
Tafua
Hood

Shall i go on

Have you maybe thought it’s more realism over delusional or arrogant? You don’t think we’re going to turn it round within half a season and stay up do you?

I think you’re spot on with it, no Wakefield fan wants to see us playing long term championship rugby but if that’s what’s required to ensure we can move the dead wood on and rebuild then so be it.

Well what can you say.

I've run out of patience with Proctor. Atoni thank god didn't play.
Smith had some sweful moments.
And to be honest Kelelpi was a bit of a waste of time.

Balanced with some players putting maximum effort in. I really feel for them.
