I've got Sky Q and unfortunately that means I'm locked into their contract till the back end of this year, then they've all gone and I'll be £102 a month better off, the crap internet the netball basketball all the other rubbish stuff and most pleasing of all Wilkins, that pr@t from Cas who showed his face for a season with us not forgetting Clark as well as listening to Arthurs telling us a dozen times a night how many injuries the other teams got, just simply turn the sound off, it's so much simpler, the good thing is it works when your watching other Sky sports programmes as well.

Think when you say you are leaving Sky will try to make you a offer to stay .I pay under 80£ As said I stoped watching S L half way through the season .Same reason as you ,on about injury to other teams ,but if you did not no we play with a full team every week .Agree a lot about the other sports a load of rubbish ,especially trying to push ladies sport down our throats. Making a big deal about England ladies scoring 4 goals the other day .Saw the goals one morning ,and my 7 year old grandson said he could have stopped 3 of them goals sums it up for me Mr Carter said Sky as cut money to S L right down but it as the second biggest viewing figures.

Well of course.....

Joking aside, I will be there too -whichever league we are in.

I will be there also no matter what league we’re in.
We have struggled 90% of the time we’ve spent in SL and our brand of rugby is unattractive.
Perhaps with some pressure off we can play more creative and attractive rugby but I do think remaining full time is the difference between coming back up or not relatively quickly.

Same here it's in me now.
In an odd way if it happens it will be a relief to be in a League we can compete in. The promotion season in 1998 was one of my favourite ever seasons. Obviously it's not what I want but we can start again.

What about the many seasons before 1998, did you find them similarly exciting.

It is not a pointless question because I believe you are all living in an alternative reality. I know why you have because you need the patronage, I don’t but having gone through the last period seeing our better players being snapped up due to the fact we didn’t have the funds. I don’t see this being any different this time so how do you believe we will be competitive and how many supporters during a time of tight finances will want to spend their money. When we are out of SL it won’t be a one season return without investment especially when we start paying the ground loan back.
What really annoys me is that we shouldn’t be in this position but if you ignore the signs over several seasons and continue to one plan the threat of relegation was inevitable once a reasonable team is promoted.

So what’s the answer then?
We haven’t a sugar daddy and not likely to get one.
We haven’t the funds to sustain a competitive SL team.
IF we stay up get ready for more of the same for next season.
I’m sick of punching above our weight!

I’ve supported Trinity since 1960 but for one reason or another didn’t go in the promotion season - typical after all the stuff I watched in the 1980’s although I watched for their results keenly.
How I wish I had gone along then!

Just a quick question.
How do the loan repayments compare with the rent we were paying prior to 2019?

So long as it's not the one you live in I'm happy.
You really are arrogant at times. So you don't think that most fans are not fully aware of the issues at stake, only you the great oracle knows. Se are not worthy.
I did enjoy 1998 or are you going to revise history as usual and take that one away from us all.
We should be able to compete in the Championship in terms of winning a fair few games and generally having more fun as speccies (won't bother you and your fantasy season ticket), doesn't mean we will be the best or win it but it will probably be our level for a while.
Then when you invest your millions and take over the full running of the club we can return triumphant to SL

Coco, what are you asking him for?
He makes it up as he goes along, he has no more idea than the rest us, probably less.

I don’t know that will be sensitive information, not even Vastman will know. I ask you what happened to the money saved on the rent once we purchased the ground.

Salford had a sugar daddy, Koukash, and got nowhere, they are doing better now and have reached 2 finals recently. According to Rowley, they have the lowest spend on the cap, but i don't know if that's true. How are Warrington and Hull getting on with their resources??! We finished 5th twice in 2017 & 2018 with basically players no-one else wanted, so 'success' can be achieved relatively speaking. Money is only part of it, Have it and waste it, then there's no point having it in the first place.

That's nothing to do with what he said. He just said the promotion season was one of his favourites. It doesn't mean everything else is rubbish.
If you support Trinity you support them through good times and bad. Some just seem to look at the score and if it isn't a win then everything is bad.
Honestly, you are supporting the wrong club if that is the only reason to come. Its a big thing, but not the only thing.

'"
You are really taking your patronage quite seriously and backing the board. I note you didn’t say you enjoyed the seasons before 1998. I see the usual when you take over the club which was a £1 but is now £1m which I guess is inflation however who would want to invest in a club that is currently an embarrassment both on and off the field.
I would correct you again with your persistent misinformation that I do not have a season ticket, I may not use it but I do have one. I won’t expect an apology it’s not what you do unless you are told to do so by those that control you.
I am not arrogant just a realist which for reasons above you cannot be. I believe that some things as loan repayments are part of a confidential agreement so please tell me how anyone other than your controllers at the club will know, it’s how businesses work.

Well we all know one contributor to the site who will always be found to surprisingly back whatever those on the board do, it’s as if he under their control.

I hope we actually win tonight because it will be a game I can save rather than delete and we need it.
