For me and quite a few others judging by previous comments, fitness has been a problem all season, we don't look fit enough full stop.
Hopefully next season with a rumored new back room team on board this is something that will be resolved.

Hope that rumor is right our lot one minuet look has fit has fleas next like knacked old horses something has to be done

Re: Wakefield score : Mon Sep 07, 2015 11:56 am  

In principle I agree that we could be a lot fitter, but let's not forget that Wakefield were always going to be the fresher side. Although we have had the fortune to rotate certain players recently, Wakefield have had the luxury of not competing for the last few months, plus they've also added new recruits to bolster their squad now as well. We haven't had a week off since the pointless week that was the WC challenge series. Let's also not forget that Wakefield went into the last 12-13 mins having used all their interchanges.

The four J's from the bench gave us the lift we so badly needed. I thought James Greenwood went very well. Allgood, Walker, Burke ... not so much.
Somewhat fortunate to win, but you take what you get.

So do I, having said that the people I heard it from yesterday would suggest that it's more than just speculation.
Apparently Jamie Peacock has insisted that he brings his own backroom staff with him, we also heard yesterday that one member of the current staff has already been told that they can leave.

Surely the positions of fitness/conditioners would be Chester's choice, JP is coming in an administrative role

Well to be honest you would expect that to be the case wouldn't you?.
However, you would also expect him to be in charge of recruitment but according to some, it was Peacock who was responsible for bringing Thomas Minns from Leeds.
The information regarding the backroom staff was given to me by someone yesterday in the HP bar after the game, I also heard it from a couple other people who are usually in the know If you get my drift .
There were one or two other strong and quite exiting rumours knocking about regarding the stadium, recruitment and sponsorship etc for next year but, I'll wait until there's a little bit more meat on the bone so to speak, before commenting on those, unless someone beats me to it of course.

What's the point of saying all that but leave out all the good bits

You bloody tease. I bet when you were in your teens you used to tell all the women that you had a 12 inch dick just to keep them interested. I used to try that line, but refused to bend mine in half when they invariably called my bluff.

Seventies red has actually proved to be quite a solid quiet source of in information if anyone would care to check his/her posts.

That HP Bar stuff doesn't come cheap.

Re: Wakefield score : Mon Sep 07, 2015 9:42 pm  

I was in the HP bar after the game and was also told that JP had been visiting the club one day a week over the past few weeks and had submitted to the board a list of what he feels needs to be changed at the club. If they would not back him on his list then he would not be coming.
He has suggested certain changes and when questioned that some of them should be the decision of Chester but he supposedly said Chester's here to coach the team. He is there along with the back room staff to supply the players and backing for him to carry out the coaching duties to the best of his ability.
Let us hope that JP does come and sort the club out from top to bottom it has not moved on much since it has been in the Super league and unless things change we will always be also rans.
We have done well reaching Wembley and the supporters deserve more but unless there are changes within the club it will never happen.
I also heard that as long as we are in the super league there are 4 new players already lined up to join the club in 2016.
Let's hope the HP source bears fruit (excuse the pun)

That chat thread died, and so did those mods, gladly, I now feel I have a license to post knackers where ever.

Had to move from Secret Hill Top Lair, it became compromised.

I foolishly released it's GPS coordinates.

Just cooked a bit of beef in New Lair (location will not be even jested at) massively over cooked. Terrible.

I post on other forums, might have to burn new lair down to cover my tracks from The Coordination.
