What’s happened to the money raised from the share sales, apparently the club were amazed at the take up by fans and more significantly there was reports that the Full Share, £50K I think, also had loads of interest

Where are we with that

Probably just saying that to make us little fans feel like our contribution of £500/£1000 will be more than matched by these others that can never be mentioned so that we actually do part with our monies.
I’m so Angry atm I feel let down and depressed and that should never happen as a fan.
Upset at results and the odd player yes but not at the whole organisation and I mean the RFL as well.
I see the sport that I’ve grown up with and love been turned into just another money maker for a select few.
It’s a disgrace to all the clubs that don’t fit the bill and who decides, the ones that will benefit!!!
We should not be scared of going to the championship, it should be just a case of getting the club into some order to be able to make a tilt at returning. If and when we go down, like lots of other lower clubs that will be it.
Done and dusted and the ruling class clubs will all be happy. Until it’s their turn Ofcourse!
How sad we have to be looking for a shining knight in armour to just survive!!!
Still very ANGRY to the point of, ‘what is the point anymore?’

Or maybe even share news of Carter stepping down on LinkedIn, and within the post, trying to promote the club to a potential investor

Well, just for the record, I have re shared the statement of Carter stepping down, on LinkedIn, adding in hashtags to link it back to the sport and our club.

Nothing may come of it, but if you don't try, you won't get anywhere

Carter and Minnards have run the club into the ground. They bemoan not having any money yet we are paying Gaskell and Lineham circa £200k per year between them.

Applegarth is out of his depth, it's not his fault and I don't blame him, I blame the people who appointed someone who isn't up to the job because he was a cheap yes man.

Carter and Minnards need to get out of the club, we were better off under Ted, at least he tried where as this lot just blame everyone and everything but themselves.

I'm sure if you think about what you have said, you'll regret some of it! MC and JM have NOT run the club into the ground, the club wouldn't be there if it wasn't for them. Unfortunately they are both accountants and won't spend what we haven't got. That is reflected in the present quality of players!
We need that benefactor now.
As for Ted - NO! he had his own interests at heart and ultimately 'sod the club!'

Yes I saw that - will keep my eye on it see how it goes down.

They have been responsible for us being the only club to make a profit. They have been responsible for all the improvements at Belle View. I'm thankful for their involvement at the club, the rugby is dire at the moment but I appreciate what they have done.

Re: ANGRY : Sat Mar 25, 2023 12:34 pm  

I don't think Mark applegarth is out of is depth as a coach i think it's a bit more simpler than that the players are out of there depth just not good enough, it's not there fault it is what it is and now time as finally caught up with us as a club, I agree we should be putting ourselves out there more in the public eye for investment or for someone to buy the club but i fear now it's too late and the championship beckons for us now and like some have said just when we have finally got the ground getting sorted the on-field hasn't.

Re: ANGRY : Sat Mar 25, 2023 12:51 pm  

Must admit i was hoping i’d have calmed down today after last nights ‘efforts’. I haven’t and to be honest listening to Applegarths post match comments praising the players efforts and claiming it will all turn round wound me up even more. If he actually means that and he isn’t just saying it for the camera then i’m afraid he is deluding himself. Some players were trying more than others out there last night. And yes we have players missing but how many of those waiting to return would be in any other teams starting 13? Maybe Tanginoa but thats it. I like Max but whose first choice would he replace elsewhere? Mash spent what money we did have poorly in the winter. His decision to pick Forber over Bowes is a shocker. Why move Kay from fullback when he was going ok to throw in a young lad who had a stinker? Hewitt had been shocking sin binned for an obvious crusher last night, poor defensive effort costing us a try against Salford. I doubt Windrow would have done any worse. I didn’t agree with setting in Applegarth at the time and i still don’t think it’s the right call. But he’s got the job and I’m willing to keep the faith for a bit longer. But this next month is make or break and lose to Cas & Leigh and it’s curtains.
