Well let's hope this is the end of the matter, surely even deadly Derek won't try it on by the time we play Leigh.

Degsy likes booking a pre-game act. Maybe we could get Tom Jones to do a rendition of Green Green Grass of Home?

Re: Wakefield v HKR : Tue Mar 21, 2023 12:46 pm  

So can we claim back lost sky monies?

I’d at least be saying to sky that this game still counts as the first fixture and we receive a pay out for the next.

The pitch is again passed and the club haven’t done anything wrong. Why should it suffer?

Perhaps Trinity could use that music as the teams enter the field for kick off

We'll probably make more from the gate receipts for supports now coming to ground.

I dread to think how silly the rfl would look if the pitch wasn’t passed. Afterall, they have passed it in pre season and I believe employed an independent inspector who also allowed it to proceed (whether it passed or not). One would assume it did though as the game got played.

Last game seemed to be played with no consequence for both Wakey and Hudds. Can’t see why this one shouldn’t unless.

The decision should be made by a person who is qualified to inspect pitches. Again if it passes the test then it’s played regardless of what Trinity/KR think or may have issue with.

Huddersfield agreed to play on it even though they weren’t happy with its condition. They were anxious to play the game having already missed one round of SL because Sts were in Australia.

Ian Watson didn’t make an issue of it after the game but that doesn’t mean there were no issues!
Every Giants player had some damage and injury which Huddersfield had anticipated that they would need more medical staff and a variety of treatments for burns, grazes and other skin issues, that included antibiotics & antiseptics

I presume this means we can sue the pitch supplier for the inconvenience caused and loss of revenue.

What loss of revenue?

Two needless pitch inspections, both passed with ease. The problem isn’t the pitch it’s the wonderful RL family.

Lets face it, it's all b*llocks and propaganda.
There is nothing wrong with that pitch.
Have they all turned into wusses? What would they have thought of the Widnes pitch?
They'd have never played a home game on it FFS.
Clearly, HKR trying it on after Cats & Shudds tried to make an issue out of it and the fact they have a few players missing.....
You don't need Miss Marple or a slide rule to work it out FFS.
Its the same for both teams isnt it?
Or have we got magic powers?
Get on with the game!!!
The Death Pitch lives!!!
Long live the Death Pitch!!!
The teams should come out to - Bring Out Your Dead by Anti-Flag

By all accounts I believe the club were training away from the pitch for many weeks in pre season as advised.

Not sure why certain fans are so quick to point the finger at the club with absolutely no proof.

I am, there are certain Trinity fans sic, who probably blame the club for COVID and the Ukrainian war.
