The answer would appear to be a resounding no. Posters like you seem to have no grasp of reality.

It's funny that the same people who moan about panic buying are also the people who moan we didn't go buy a prop only good enough for the bottom team who no one knows anything about.

The team we have is perfectly capable of beating Toulouse. And to be honest Leeds.
Time will tell if we do. Panic doesn't really help right now so glad Willie and the team have 2 weeks to prepare and will give it their best.

I also predict, if we do win, it will be much quieter on here.

The supporters cannot influence who the club spend their budget on but we can get the vibes with regards the reasoning. I cannot believe that you do not think the signing of the lad from London and Whitbread from Leigh were not due to panic and cost. I admire your optimism with regards our chances and yes we must win but based on past performances this could easily be another loss.
We faced Huddersfield at the best time to register a victory but failed to do so and in fact did not score in the second half and in the last ten minutes just drove the ball in without a clue what to do. I agree the forum will be quiet if we win but if it is the other way than criticism will be much to the fore but your defence will remain full throated.

For the hundredth time it's the clubs responsibility to ensure SL survival and to provide funds to obtain a level of quality players to make the above achievable.
The club have made no progress over the last six years and show no signs of season on season of making any kind of effort to better the clubs situation.
A new stadium may see an increase in support over a couple of home games but new support will shy away from what's on offer at the moment.
Facilities to entice other than rugby supporters to the stadium will have to be located and enticed, a mother and baby club ain't going to cut it.
Sorry but the club needs a change of attitude and direction.
Let's just see what happens if we loose our next game.

Yeah right.

Poor and transparent attempt to hide the fact that you have no answer.

Some people shout with a reason whilst others just shout.

Unbelievable.

It’s always been my responsibility to keep a roof over my families head but without sufficient income I’d struggle.

In the past that has occasionally happened and the only thing I could do in the short term was either borrow more than I could afford or cut my cloth accordingly.

What I couldn’t do was conjure up free money. What I absolutely was not willing to do was scupper long term goals for the sake of a short term fix.

Like it or not Trinity is in exactly that situation.

The job of the BOD is to run the club with due diligence and not to take short term panic measures. We run with what we have unless the right player becomes available.

So are you going to give the club some free money?

No, I thought not.

I agree. The two signings you mention were influenced by cost.
And I think Whitbread is doing OK
Can't see a problem. We need players with numbers on their back higher than 13. It's just how a team is built.

So does the club have long term goals and if so what are they.
We have all had the responsibility of keeping a roof over our heads and on occasions have found it difficulty, surely that's part of family life.
How are trinity in the exact situations,. Trinity have chosen the path its on and have not made a single effort to promote the club increase attendances or provide present supporters with anything other than doom and gloom.
Anyway you keep singing the owners praises and making excuses for their total blinkered style of management.
