I can't believe that the lights went out during the BBC after match analysis. It is just one embarrassment after another. I have a question how many people do we employ because I never appear to see or hear about them. Do we have a marketing team ?

Would you say a 3800 crowd with the majority from Leigh is a sign of fans giving a toss?

The Leigh figure I keep hearing is 2500 and I see no reason or evidence to argue against that. That leaves 1300 from Wakefield. Embarrassing.

MC is way out of his depth not knowing anything about the game as are the coaching staff and sadly it might be the most expensive squad we have ever had in super league, but we don't have a team. We have a few individuals who put a shift in but the majority should question whether they are in the right career, because they exhibit none of the fundamental requirements of a rugby league player (heart, desire, work ethic and honesty)


When Ted was kicked out and yes his time had come though IMHO he didn't deserve the personal stuff I said to certain posters on here who now keep a very low profile "be careful what you wish for".

Well two idiot chancres who I'm happy to say I spotted straight away and a glorified book keeper who I didn't it's gone pretty much to script.

Teds not coming back nor Steve Ferres or JK or Andy Kelly but it makes you realise that you don't realise what you had till it's gone. All those mentioned were flawed I know that but then who isn't - yet from 2000 to 2010 they kept us in SL and better still from 2004 to 2010 we were pretty competitive and hard to play with only the first few seasons as expected and 2006 where we were in any real trouble. I'm not rose tinting it we were never great but at least we competed and on the field at least earned the right to be in SL.

Seems a long time ago now.

We have been in sorry states before and been respectable this season pathetic.
Batley get beat by 4 against a full strength Widnes team. We lose by 50.
Every week we are a laughing stock
New coach now Carter enough is enough

Fev giving Catalans an almighty run for their money as well.

We are lucky we got 1300 to pay to watch us after the garbage the team has served up for months. If we were in Leigh position we would have got much more people willing to watch us. I aren't going to criticise anyone who has given up because the team are not giving us anything to make us want to watch them and the club don't seem bothered about being an embarrassment

Re: Dear Mr.Carter : Sun May 17, 2015 7:15 pm  
Why should MC throw more of his money in? He has said he doesn't have millions. He came in when we were in a pickle. I can't remember anyone else knocking the door down, then or since??

It's ok saying we managed to stay in SL under the previous regimes, but we were doing it on money we didn't have, hence we have been on the edge of going bust so many times.

The big mistake he has made for me is not getting rid of Webster a few weeks ago. Other than that, I don't see why he's copping the flack??!

It is "Fifita" not "Fafita"

If you don't know the difference between "there", "their" and "they're" I might get annoyed.

Sharing First World problems so you can get it right first time.

The answer is very simple in my mind, if he doesn't pay Webster off he will not get money back. The club will go down, be unable to afford a competitive team due to ground rent and low attendance. Before you know it we'll be in Championship One, evicted from our ground with no way back to Super League.

It is simple Mr Carter. Get rid of Webster and bring back some pride to this club. The fans can see it, why can't you!!!!!

Because unless I'm ill informed in which case I apologies he does have more money than you might think. True there is no reason why he should spend it on us in which case you have to ask what's the point in owning us?
For the record he was part of the Yorkshire Traction management buy out team that eventually was sold to Stagecoach for 30 million if I recall - no idea what he got from that but it wasn't chicken feed I suspect. However what is annoying is that as far as I'm aware no attempt has been made to capitalise the club i.e. sell shares etc which is surprising for a bloke who doesn't want to spend his own money - seems to want it both ways.

Anyway how does anyone know we are financially stable - when were the last set of accounts released?

3 major mistakes by our Chairman. He kept onto his buddy Agar for too long the crowd drift had already started well before the Imbecile was sacked. Mistake number 2 was giving Imbecile mk 2 a 3 year deal, ffs what was that about. Nobody else was even interviewed, no doubt he is a great budddy too. Mistake number 3 is keeping holding of him for too long. Its way too late now the fans have gone for ever and club existence won't be far behind.

Just a note, Agar wasn't sacked he left of his own accord. Carter publicly stated he wouldn't have sacked him. A little bit of history repeating?
