I'm with MC all the way. Finances come 1st, can't afford the mickey take rent, move on. The bloke is sorting out the failings of past regimes, we have reaped exactly what we have sown. Utmost respect for a man that clearly has Wakefield Trinity the club best interests at heart. It's just a pity we didn't have this guy at the helm many many years ago !

The club cannot sell season tickets or hospitality so no revenue until they announce where we are to play, I am afraid this is a basic fact. I expect a few will buy regardless but once again the majority are not so accepting how can you make a financial pledge of over £200 when we could be playing at Doncaster for example.
It is easy to say finance is all that matters but sadly we are a rugby club and our customers are fickle and as we have seen are happy to walk away.

We don't even know what league we are playing in yet so the ground issue has no effect on Sts at all yet.

Although AGENT XIII has a real downer on Carter, I sympathise with his concerns on this subject. When will we find out what the alternatives are? Surely this will have been agreed in principle if not contractually where's the harm in putting the option into the public domain? Wouldn't that be a useful as leverage when negotiating with the BOI.

I don't think it's the norm to show your hand in a game of poker !

Carter has already played his hand.

If we're going with the poker anaology, I'd say he's raised the stakes, it's up to BOI to decide if they want to call or fold on the deal.
