Cant argue with getting something rather than nothing but, I thought the days of Leeds flashing the cash and us rolling over were a thing of the past.
I know that rumours are, well, just rumours but, IF Johnstone and Fifita are moving on, it would be a very dark time for the club.

Dark times? With ground situation not decided yet and crowds averaging 5500 what do you expect. Get ground sorted and we will grow, until then we have to duck and dive and get the best squad on the smallest budget in SL. That's if the rumours are true if we have to cash in so be it, we look to be building a decent team for next season.

How do we look to be building a decent team for next season if we cash in on Johnstone and Fifita (replaced with chuffin George King)?

Wasn’t mc or Chester quoted not so long ago as saying the squad we will have next year will be stronger. Don’t see that being the case if either of these two are allowed to leave

better to sell when he's in contract than allow him to go for nothing

What's wrong with lengthening his contract before it runs out?

Who's said we're selling Johnstone and Fifita? But if we do I will understand and support it especially if it's for long term stability of the club.

yes you could do and I would do to protect our asset, but if there is an offer come our way you'd be a fool not to even listen to it,

at this moment I see no ambition at the club than stay within the top 8, had results gone our way we'd be in the same position as last year which is fine and can still find our way too 5th position, but with a lazy cup run were just gong to be also ran again that needs to change.

Snowie why would you be a fool not to listen to offers if your trying to protect what is arguably your best asset?

So because the Chairman and Co. are fighting what would appear to be a losing battle with one hand tied behind his back, that shows a lack of ambition on the club's part really, you know the circumstances same as the rest of us and for you to say this is beyond belief.

why is it, best side in years and we whipper out of the cup,
its our only way of enticing the crowd back being noticed as sad as it is, so while we keep the same mentality we will never improve, them words didn't come out of my mouth after that game that showed we was more bothered with a top 8 finish

look at the semi final v hull how it got the crowd back in

I take it losing battle you mean the council
