It's time Pearson did the decent thing, test the water and put the club up for sale and see if he gets any interest because it's clear to see that he has lost his passion and drive for the club.

The training hub not even been started when it was due to open this autumn, back room staff leaving, operating well under the cap, The list is endless.

Ridiculous statement, typical RLFans hyperbole.

There are some great people who work tirelessly for the club.

Nobody with any sense would buy an RL club now, Wakefield are run on a shoe string and still lost 400k last year. The SKY goes down each time they renew it and theres limited opportunities to make more revenue aside from yet more shirt launches.

Rovers struck lucky that the council granted them the land around the stadium before that there was no interest at all.

There has been some fans suggesting people have been willing to invest in the club but AP wont relinquish any of his boardroom clout ?

Yes but we dont know what funds they have and what % of the business they want. No point selling shares to someone who isnt suitable in the long term.

I beleive we will be bottom half next year but the devil is in the detail, if we are still in the running for 6th with a game or two to go that would be seen as progress. Theres also a big difference in narrowly losing games and conceding 52 points.

While im feeling grumpy...can the club also stop treating the last home game like an episode of 'this is your life' stop the players
bringing kids on the pitch before the game, there was 2 points at stake it wasnt a testimonial.
Plenty of time after the game for a lap of honour. It feels like every season we just write the last home game off as a sentimental 'freindly'


I've always been staggered by this but all clubs do it. It's your place of work not a nursery.

Your sole focus should be on the match you are about to play. How the hell can you be focused.

What next do you bring the family pet on the pitch as well.

Anyone at the end of season awards? Is Pearson there? Any comments for us to ponder over?
