SAD but TRUE. : Sat Oct 03, 2020 6:24 pm  

Having read all the recent postings on here + social media, the general feelings coming over seems to be that people are quite
Bored with Wakey at the moment, they are miles off being a team, they cannot play 80 mins although it pains me to say this !
No where near Salford, we are the worst team in super league.
I worry about next season's - season ticket holders coming back for more of this, I will be buying mine but numbers will be down ?

The difference between Salford and Wakefield, is that Salford has a coach who's had his team ripped apart but still knows how to motivate and get the best out of what he's got.
Ian Watson wasn't a world beater when he played but knows how to get the best out of what he's got.

Fans on hear are saying Salford coaching staff is worst than ours at beginning of seasons and team Today' shows the opposite The Coach started with five of is better players moving on to bigger clubs .just brought in players in positions he needed to strengthen.No panic buying.Think you are right we are by far the worst team in S L in everything and we will lose lots of season tickets unles there are drastic action is taken in certain positions and staff

He gives them knowledge and guidance, he gets the players fit and strong, he gives them a determination and willingness to succeed but above all he puts plans in place to unsettle and seek out the opposition weaknesses. They work hard for each and when they get into attacking areas they put little moves on and move the ball quickly.

Not rocket science really ,but seems to have eluded us for far too long

Well done to Ian Watson & Salford shows what can be done with the right coach.

Our attacking play is the same every week. Every team has sussed us out. Hence boring rugby, regularly nilled or a consolation effort. Then roll out the excuses.

It amazes me how many threads we can create just to find a way of sagging off the team or the coach.

If you looked around social media you'd also see how many fans from other clubs commented how entertaining we were against Wigan and how we were unlucky to lose.
If they can see it, why can so many Wakefield fans only see the negative.
There is lots wrong at the moment but sometimes you just have to accept we are not as good as other teams for various reasons, injuries and Covid being the biggest.
You don't have to always burn it all down because you don't like what you see. Be patient and build slowly.
Playing the fringe players will lose us games but will make us stronger in future. Same as playing Lyne and BJB together so they can get their partnership back.
It's just going to take time.

Bet you live in a thatched cottage with roses round the front door and a babbling brook running through your back garden with the vicar calling in for tea and a sherry, and white fluffy clouds in an azure blue sky above eh PT??

People don't mind the fringe players it's the poor players they have brought to the team

It's going to take time!
Salford have had their team decimated like we used to and still manage to play attractive rugby with minimal losses, Hull KR bought 5 players from Bradford for £100,000, money which I thought was wasted, yet they have improved no ends.
So how long is it going to take for us to look like a well organised structured team?
