Grtting rid of players we don't need makes great sense but of course you can't see that.
We don't need Rooney, Biib or Pitts. Let Pitts go now for money or he would leave for free come end of season. Now I know what every club would chose been in that situation'"
It is hypocritical.
With several players out you have money available. A club who want to do well in the play offs would look to strengthen - unless they think themselves perfect ![Rolling Eyes icon_rolleyes.gif](//www.rlfans.com/images/smilies//icon_rolleyes.gif) . wakey are not taking such an opportunity.
All these 'low grade' players you will not miss. Who signed them in the first place? Who's been paying their wages all season?

Exactly. Obvious isn't it.
Yet if you go through the Winterstein threads you will see many wakey fans wetting themselves over Winterstein and others bagging Fulton or claiming parity. They were clueless. few would have the guts to admit it.

No it's not but if I started with the insults it would be.
Pitts came through academy and made a good impression last season he is the only one out of the 3 that I would have liked to have kept. Like anyone he wanted to play at the club he supported as a kid.
Bibb is lazy offers nothing what so ever so get rid this does not weaken the team at all IMO.
Rooney let him go and get him self in the shop window for a contract at another club for next season.
It all makes sense if your not MG

maybe , maybe not .. Korki as made more impact in a month than scully did in a year.
different players will give you different results depending on club and coach , thornman is a true example of this.
BTW MG may be right but 1/1000 is a poor return.

| I suppose some people look at crowds down, shareholder schemes and several players being removed hastily from the pay roll etc and see a financially healthy club that can easily thrive and raise capital for a new stadium. I do not.
It would appear that stating this point gets up the noses of some wakey fans so much that all they can do is resort to childish insults (grist to my mill). ho hum.
let's see how things pan out.

You really don't have a clue do you.
Only thing you are right about is the attendances been down, but there is nothing us on here can do about that apart from attend the games which the majority of us do

Didn't they start the season with a few injuries and thus bring players in to cover for the start of the season?
Thus when these injuries clear up they would reduce the playing quota back down to their normal level.
It's that also a theory?

It is, but not one that suits Mardys obsession with Wakefield's (supposed) demise.

| Not sure which of the players we are talking about. I can think of no player who might be going for cashflow reasons. There are some players who you could question on a "value for money" basis, and Rooney would fall into that camp. Many fans would also put Peterson and Atkins in the same category. Drew may choose to play elsewhere, and it might be because he can get more money elsewhere, but replacing him with Newton is hardly a sign of a bankrupt club.
The club is a business. Value for money is important. Paying Rooney loads of money to carry the water bottles is hardly value for money, and it makes sense for him to go elsewhere. If you can show me a player who is leaving because the club has financial worries, I'll be interested in the debate.

The one difference which is important inthat comparison is that FW could be here to stay while LF is expected to go back to Wests.
So which is the better signing?

It could well be that we are planning for next season already, a very unusual tactic for us I do agree, but the potential signings for next year suggests that there is money in the pot. If players are not featuring then it makes sense to remove then from the wage bill wouldn't you say? As has already been stated Pitts is the only 1 who has actually left the club and that was his decision as Wakey made him an offer to stay so 1 would assume again that there is money in the pot. As to who signed these 'low grade' players in Rooney's case I can't rememer it was that long ago and Bibb and Pitts came through our academy. These players have fitted into the team in the past but as we improve they are replaced by better players which brings us back to planning for next season.
I am now tempted to throw in a personal insult as that seems the only thing you can reply to.

3 forwards 'exiting' (Pitts / Bibb / Winterstein) including one transfered 'mid season'. Rooney at Barrow. And suggestions that Petersen may be playing his last game for Wakey tonight.

| Wonder what we're paying Glenn Morrison out in then if we've no money?
Murphy in for Petersen in no way weakens the team whatsoever, if anyone takes a look at the tryscoring ratio of both players, then it's actually better for us.
