Scurrilous, scandalous suggestion to imply that Leeds would ever do such a thing

Anybody know where you can watch these interviews? Was at the game and didn't record on Sky

MC should tell Leeds only two words when it comes to Johnstone.

better to sell when he's in contract than allow him to go for nothing

Cant argue with getting something rather than nothing but, I thought the days of Leeds flashing the cash and us rolling over were a thing of the past.
I know that rumours are, well, just rumours but, IF Johnstone and Fifita are moving on, it would be a very dark time for the club.

everything has its price, thing is if either went I wouldn't be up in arms about it as we are never going to be a top side looking for honours, this has been proved this year with what has been our best squad in years

Correct but isn’t he on a 5 year deal? Ey that cheque book out #makeitrain

Again, it's hard to disagree but, look at where Cas were just a few seasons ago.
Although Trinity are still behind them (cough, splutter), we have certainly made up some ground over the last couple of seasons and whilst it's all about the squad and never about individual players, if we dont get it right, the pack of cards can fall very quickly

Very dark id be even more worried about ground situation then too has to me where planning for championship

you don't plan to play in the championship

You do if you been told by rfl thats where your playing due to ground issues why else would you swap fifita for king (if true)

Dark times? With ground situation not decided yet and crowds averaging 5500 what do you expect. Get ground sorted and we will grow, until then we have to duck and dive and get the best squad on the smallest budget in SL. That's if the rumours are true if we have to cash in so be it, we look to be building a decent team for next season.

Up the Trin

How do we look to be building a decent team for next season if we cash in on Johnstone and Fifita (replaced with chuffin George King)?

Wasn’t mc or Chester quoted not so long ago as saying the squad we will have next year will be stronger. Don’t see that being the case if either of these two are allowed to leave

What's wrong with lengthening his contract before it runs out?

Who's said we're selling Johnstone and Fifita? But if we do I will understand and support it especially if it's for long term stability of the club.

Up the Trin

We will get ground situation sorted.

Up the Trin

yes you could do and I would do to protect our asset, but if there is an offer come our way you'd be a fool not to even listen to it,

at this moment I see no ambition at the club than stay within the top 8, had results gone our way we'd be in the same position as last year which is fine and can still find our way too 5th position, but with a lazy cup run were just gong to be also ran again that needs to change.

Snowie why would you be a fool not to listen to offers if your trying to protect what is arguably your best asset?

So because the Chairman and Co. are fighting what would appear to be a losing battle with one hand tied behind his back, that shows a lack of ambition on the club's part really, you know the circumstances same as the rest of us and for you to say this is beyond belief.

why is it, best side in years and we whipper out of the cup,
its our only way of enticing the crowd back being noticed as sad as it is, so while we keep the same mentality we will never improve, them words didn't come out of my mouth after that game that showed we was more bothered with a top 8 finish

look at the semi final v hull how it got the crowd back in

I take it losing battle you mean the council

That's the second time you've referred to the cup, Chester put 17 first team players out that night against an under rated shudds side, I would imagine that most fans on here you included thought that because we beat them previously in the league it would be a stroll in the park, as for enticing fans of any club back to watch cup matches, well good luck with that, just a thought about our mentality at the club it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the matter.
The club aren't just hampered by the council and all those concerned with the issue, we lose some of our share of Sky money because of the ground, amongst other things mainly ground related, if it was that easy everybody would be queuing up to do it.

its not only about enticing supporters back just for cup games ever thought they may come back to watch league games, you'll find fans want silverware not just to finish in the top 8,
I've supporting the club long enough not to be called a glory hunter but its getting like groundhog day every season

Tell me one SL club whose attendances are noticeably on the up season on season including those who can't use the excuse of having a poor ground, as for the challenge cup the interest there has dropped alarmingly and is frankly embarrassing.
As for being a glory hunter at Wakey I think you'd be in a minority of one there if you were, maybe that's why although our support is minimal in comparison to some, it's not diminishing like some others and at least stays consistent.

Since we've won nothing in 60 years and have a dump of a ground that holds the club back I don't think we do bad for crowds, a lot of SL clubs in that situation would do worse. Get ground sorted and a team competing on the pitch and we'll do alright crowd wise.

Up the Trin

I agree with your point, but 60 years isn't correct.
We've won the 1st division championship twice, won the Yorkshire Cup and Second Division Grand Final in that time. Admittedly not for a while but it isn't 60 years
