Most of the folk there are fine.

There are a few though who make me believe my father did right to leave that city and head towards Bradford all those years ago...even if that particular decision was based on taking a job rather than anything else. Good job he brought his love for rugby with him..bloody economic migrants eh!

There is a thread on wakefields forum which shows a letter sent by supporters trust to the RFL. Don't think it will have any influence on RFL'S decision , but I can see there point in requesting consistency of approach.

It's nice to see Wakefield fans supporting us and asking that we, like they did before, get a reduction on any points deduction for agreeing to work with previous creditors.

Oh wait, is that not the point of the letter?

Should just say at the end of the letter, "burn them all"

I think they forgot to scan the page where they said they felt it only fair that they should have had half THEIR Sky money confiscated too.

But that's clearly implied. They've repeatedly said they want consistency and having one club on less money than the rest of the league is clearly not consistent.

Especially in a relegation year.

In all their outpourings, they sort of forget that.

I think we need to try and avoid tarring the generality of Wkefield Trinity supporters with the same brush though. Most who I have met in person have been very sound chaps. Same as the Keighley supporters I have met. Hard to imagine a better bunch. But, in my experience, what does SO much damage is when people see or perceive injustice. Especially when the stakes are so high now. THAT is what is driving some of the Trinity supporters to apoplexic zombie madness, IMO. THAT is what has driven some of the Keighley supporters to the same in the past (and to this day).

And that is what is causing more than a few Bulls supporters, SO pìssed off with the comedians who have owned this club in recent times, and SO pìssed off with the dreadful unfairness of the Sky money confiiscation, to emulate them in these troubled times.

Could you bring some detail and clarity to proceedings, by creating a list of the apoplectic zombie Trinity fans please?

Big list?

Or imagined?

I'll leave the compiling of lists to others. But on an unrelated subject do you still eat human brains?

Indeed Adey. Most folk are 'right as rain', as we're wont to say.

I do think we sometimes get too hung up on the odd bozo on the boards and assume they are in a majority, when most often it's not the case. For me that goes for Rhinos, Wildcats, Cougars and all the rest; for every tarmacdisgrace et al, I'm glad to say there are dozens of 'right folk'.
