All very depressing as a long standing fan ,who’s only way of supporting the club is standing on the terraces and backing them as hard as it’s getting . Looking at the sky pundits smug sniggering faces showing the tries last night really got to me , we are the butt of RL at present . Hindsight is a wonderful thing and it’s getting increasingly evident that the combination of rookie coach and a weak squad is the perfect storm ,couple with a not too shabby injury list . Would a director of rugby have been a prudent investment, to shed some experience and a calming influence at the club . It’s the easiest thing in the world to see the problems we face ,but coming up with credible solutions within our constraints is going to be incredibly tough .
You're right and to be honest we've had it coming for the past couple of seasons.
it's the old chicken and egg thing I'm afraid. The supporters won't support until there is at least a competitive team and there won't be a competitive team until the support increases. Michael Carter has repeatedly said if the gate increased he'd spend more.
So, until that changes or the mythical (in Wakefield anyway) sugar daddy arrives it's status quo.
