| Quote Eastern Wildcat="Eastern Wildcat"I'll be honest, I was a little underwhelmed, when I saw Applegarths name crop up a lot this afternoon. Don't get me wrong, he's done a great job with the kids. I just don't think he's ready for this next step just yet.
With all the names being brandished about, the journalists have been very busy over the past 24 hours or so.
I have heard, from a good source (current senior player), who shall remain nameless, I was being sociable in passing the time of day, and didn't get involved in the topic that much, just saying that we get the right person, and soon. This was his words ALL current coaching staff have gone.
All seems very odd,but if true, would rule out Applegarth.
Maybe, just maybe, that revolt on here, has touched a nerve and sparked a reaction. Knee jerk or not, only time will tell.'"
Is it the same guy who told you that the team had all taken a 25% pay cut midseason?
Do you ever come across any positive rumours to share?

No, definitely not, I can assure you. That came from someone who occasionally posts on here, though not seen them on line much in the past couple of months,
Yes I do post positive comments, when there is positivity. Sadly, on the whole, there has been very little to be positive about over the past 2-3 seasons, though I did post some positivity on a different thread recently, maybe you need to look before reacting.

I'm guessing this wasn't Mark Applegarth?!!

It wasn’t Travelling Wilbury was it? We may need to get you some help if so.

No mate, it wasn't, but if I hear something from someone that I think is usually a reliable source I don't mind posting on here and been wrong to be honest, it's a forum at the end of the day not points scoring for me and it generates some good discussion.

Your assurances don’t count for much in my experience.
Also how on earth would a player know any of this, utter nonsense. The days when players were treated like livestock are gone but as far as I’m aware none have a seat on the board and none are privy to who the club signs.
I’ve known a few players through the years and they are just like the rest of us. Thus a fair few are full of it and will tell you almost anything, especially if you appear gullible.
There is no way any of the current BOD would discuss these matters with any player no matter how senior.

| Quote Scarlet Pimpernell="Scarlet Pimpernell"The fact you are having doubts should send a warning to the club when they are causing the most enthusiastic to question a decision.'"
With a few games to go, we were in real trouble. The coach had a contract that was about to end. Wouldn't the club see the writing on the wall and start looking around for someone? Was it offered before the upturn? We'd have all agreed it was the right thing to do before the upturn. Did Willie know and that released some of the pressure and it was reflected in performances?
The issue is timing, really. It'll either turn out to be a decision made too early that backfires or it will turn out okay. A bit like Willie's appointment. Early July, it was disastrous. Late August, it was okay.
It will all unfold and time will tell.

No point the pimp has an agenda and that is to be negative no matter what the club do. Nothing would be right because he doesn’t want it to be, it’s what he lives for. Good old Rhubarb.

No it wasn't. It's not my style for idle gossip. I joined this group as another way of following the club, and a bit of banter with fellow Wakefield fans.
Regardless of what he heard, and by who, both yesterday and previously, I don't think he should have posted it. It also isn't his style though, to lie about something either, just to spark a reaction on social media. It wasn't his Dad's style, and he very much has the sane morals

We might be coachless, we might have lost some significantly influential playing staff aaand run on the lowest budget in SL, but I can assure you nobody in their right mind is paying any attention to the masochisms of doom central......thank ****
