The point is PB, there wouldn’t be a book left, to write the new Chapters, had it not been for Michael Carter.

When he’s goes, I hope you’ll and all the others who have criticised him beyond reason, will now support John Minards, he’s played a big big role in getting the stadium redeveloped, and will take us forward, he’s has red white and blue in him more than some on here.

Am I mistaken or did he more than once refer to the new stand as "that thing"? I thought he would have taken the opportunity to praise how good it was looking. Apologies in advance if mistaken.

bit poor even by your standards vasty, I'm trying not to fall out with you, it's his opinion and although it differs to yours it's exactly what he thinks. Oh and wasn't you best mates with one of the previous chairman which left the club on the brink, you still defend him to this day. This forum as been a much better read without you and your constant vitriol and rubbishing members constantly so why don't you go and crawl under the rock you've been hiding under. Hopefully a new Start is on the horizon and guess what up pops wakefields chief creep, your constant grovelling makes me want to vomit. My advice to you is go pick your mate little brain up or whatever he calls himself these days, get 2 deck chairs and a couple of loaves and go feed the ducks in the park, mind you you'll bore them to death.

Dunkirk, when MC arrived him and CB did a great job for a number of years and stabilised the club. He brought in Brian Smith and Kear and things started to build for the better. I applaud him for all that. However where he has gone wrong in my opinion is that he believed he had the skill and knowlege he could do the job of director of rugby. Just my opinion , it has been an utter disaster since then. When he comes on TV saying telegation could be a blessing, that sums up how shambolic he has run the rugby side.



As for John Minards, nice bloke and yes he has the club at heart. He also did a good job stearing the tricky path to get the stand up and running. My only gripe he has not been strong enough with Carter, sat back and watched him trash the squad. He should have been more pro active and 'ADVISED' MC to step back and get some proper people to run the rugby side.



Anyhow we are at a point in the history of this great club when it takes another turn in the path. I am already aware of some of the content of the new chapter and its quite exciting. For what its worth i just have this feeling that john minards may not be around much longer too. If so i would thank him for his time at the club.

Sounds positive PB, I hope whatever it is it comes off and isn't just another false dawn.

I hope the first line of this new chapter includes replacing the whole back line. Not one of Taufau, Langi, Gaskell, Lineham, Lyne or Kershaw offer any threat whatsoever.

"Just have the feeling" based on what?

I’ve been expecting you Mr Vastman.

Suggesting that "relegation could be a blessing in disguise", reads as though the club have written off our chances of survival.

Losing revenue and supporters would seem to be a very strange "blessing" (whether disguised or not).



I'd much rather that there was some contingency planning going on un the background, just in case and that everyone, front of camera, was telling the world how hard we're fighting and probably suggesting that we have some help coming, either in terms of players, management or coaching staff.

On field, we have been playing for 10/11th spot for the last 3/4 seasons and perhaps we had hoped that, despite having a really poor squad, somehow, either Leigh as the promoted side or a.n.other, would save us (again).

It seems that our luck has finally run out.

The Championship isn't easy to escape from, just ask Fav and right now, we look more likely to be another Widnes (they're going ok this term).

But why would we be giving up now ???? There is a glimmer of a chance if we do something now ! Just doesn’t make sense to me .. feel we’ve wasted money on 2 season tickets.. plus TV , Squadbuilder etc ..

Who he's friends with is his business not yours.

By all means make a point about what he said, not him personally.

Pretty much sums it up for me
