I can guarantee that this isn't a hobby. I am expecting this to be part of my life for the coming years (I haven't put a limit on it).
i am a Wildcats fans, and will be even if the deal doesn't go through. I am not and will never profess to be an expert in the game. there are people on here who know a lot more than I do. Saying that, I will have a team around me in the club who do know all that needs to be known (before you ask, I am not naming names) and I will be pulling on there expertise.
I am, however, very good at running businesses and making sure the wages get paid!

Don't worry about us 'polecats' Speedy. You have made it quite clear you hate and despise Wakefield.

I think hes made a plea to the fans via the forum as he hasn't direct control of the Trinity web site which can be understood,
I personally haven't any control of who takes over or runs the club so have to go along with them and give the club my support.
who ever takes over the club will know that what we require of them

Don't be conned into signing players who have a past reputation bigger than their current ability especially if they have reached their 30th Birthday. Beware of players with a bad injury record. Finally remember all agents will try and rip you off. You won't go far wrong.

Okay, point taken.
This is the best link into the fans of the club. You are all asking questions and I have some answers, that's all. No hidden agenda. The link through my site was purely for ease and speed. We have sent the same press release to papers and ezines, but they take time to publish. Please don't forget that there may be competition out there and I would like to get as much of a competitive edge as possible.

| Apg100, seen as you can't talk much about the business end of what's happening and you say you're a fan, I would like to know who you think are Wakey's best players that you've seen and what your most memorable matches are.

Good luck and fwiw most on here if they had the finances would commit without business knowledge two of the things Trin need the other being honesty which you seem to be showing. Time will tell and for those that want to shoot a saviour..... I give up!!

You're more than welcome on here and your interest in the club is very much apprieciated by us all. You will get some catty comments, thats the nature of the beast but the vast majority will be supportive of you. Ultimately after years of neglect all we want is someone to come in and run our club properly and take us forward. If yours is the best bid for that good on you. Good luck.
And if you fancy finally fixing my front door......

Well apg100. Power to your arm if you can do what you intend.
I would advise though that now you have done your research you only look at this forum with one eye closed, and from a distance. You will get all kind of views on here as you would expect. The comment about the photo is case in point. There was no harm meant I'm sure but when it is personal it matters more. I'd defend my family to the death and I'm sure you'd do the same.
We all get offended with each other on here and it really doesn't matter to us really. We all want a stronger Wakefield Trinity. Wouldn't want anyone to put a spanner in the plans for takeover with a stupid post.
Saying that great to see your post and it's completely up to you but I'd stay anonymous from now on if I were you. It will make the whole process a lot smoother I'm sure.
