Somebody comes up with the money and wants to take the club forward and people are on his back straight away!!

I'm sure the vast majority of Wakefield Trinity fans will back any owner who shows honesty and integrity. I think the main cause for concern amongst fans is the lack of communication we get from the club at times. Good luck with your bid, and hopefully to a bright future for WT

by the sound of it,this guy is not stupid - just be thankful you have a potential saviour many clubs would sell their granny for !
At least you now know that you have some kind of direct input to the man at the the top - criticise or praise him as you wish but get behind him and support your famous old club,he can't do it without you lot

not sure if anyone is on his back, or i didnt really read it like that anyway

. I guess alot of people are going to be unsure of what we are dealing with if they dont know much about them, ie being one of teds cronies or not. When the names of parkin and the like are mentioned and his apparent wealth people are naturally going to be excited. But all of a sudden a strange names thrown into the hat its bound to make people wonder

A shirt sponsor for the 2011 season is a strange name?

No, meaning does anyone really know much about andrew glover. I dont, but if he wanted to take control of my club id like to know something about him

I'm sure there was a biog on the opening link.

you haven't much choice bit like a shot gun wedding



ps erin coming soon

Look were not the ones who make the decisions here. All parties have to pass a fit an proper person (or something like that) to show they are the sort of people the rfl want running clubs. I know we've hardly been endeared to our governing body in the past but I doubt they'd allow another pearman or such like in to the game. We know we have strong interest from one party (spirit of 1873) and we've all heard rumours of other interested parties. Let's sit back watch this unfold and put our trust in the rfl and the creditors to dontheyre jobs properly and appoint whoever they believe is best for our club.

Correct, its not a a dig at the guy if he wants to invest in us fair play to him. Just my opinion that i dont think anyone is on his back, just probably more unsure about him when he hasnt been mooted as a potential buyer ( i stand corrected if has though )

I just want someone with Wakey at heart, who has good busines sense and wants to take the club forward and if this is the right deal (and he honours my season ticket) then I say good luck.

The good news for you guys is that the decision as to who takes over the club will be in the hands of the administrators and not your (now thankfully ex) BoD.

The more offers on the table the better and the administrators will take a dispassionate decision as to which offers the best chance of Wakeys long term survival and therefore the best chance of recouping money for your creditors.

For once it will be the right decision from a business perspective rather than one based on vested interests.

Good luck with it and I hope you come out the other end in good shape, and I hope we cane you in Cardiff.

Ta

It was a flippant remark that was not meant to offend,and I did appologise. sometimes you say things and straight away wish you hadn't so again, i appologise. If this chap is who he says he is and does what he says he's going to do then i for one will welcome him.

As an outsider looking in it's pretty obvious.

It looks like we are finally getting closer to a bright future and so long as the person or group who takes over the club has the club at heart i would be happy.

By the way it would also be nice if they were to put a few quid in as well.

Good luck apg100.

Hope your bid accounts for all the highs & lows that go with Wakefield Trinity (I'm sure it will.)

All I ask of whoever takes this club on has an astute business mind and can run it efficiently and reach out to members of Wakefield and catch their imagination and passion for the club once again.

Working in the media, I have to keep my distance and sometimes my opinions to myself which is really frustrating, however the one thing I will say is that standing on the terraces week in and week out, the fans deserve something a lot better than what's been going on over the last few years (especially when things seemed to be heading in the right direction!)

It's what Wakefield fans finally deserve - I'd really love for all the fans to enjoy their rugby with a 'smile' back on their faces.........

I have a lot of time for James Elston and David Longo and wish them both well in the future whatever happens.

The 'infamous' Wakey rollercoaster ride is setting off once again - goodness knows where it will take us all this time.

I can't wait until Cardiff!!!!!

Exactly.

Rather sad though.

Mr Glover are you a friend of teds? Just been looking in to your statement and the one made by the board and they seem to go hand in hand.

What does that matter? The guy has been vetted by the RFL, has money to invest in the club, runs succesful businesses and is a fan. If he delivers for our club, then I couldn't care less who his friends are!

Wether he is the right person to take us forward or not time will tell and I wish anyone who wants to invest our club all the best, BUT the fact he is on this board doesn't sit right with me I'm afraid.

The company who buys the club will be the one the administrator thinks will do the best for the club. So whoever gets it, good luck with it. If it's Mr Glover, fine. If it's someone else, fine.

I'm just cautious I do not trust or believe Ted. Hope this bid isn't a way of sneaking Ted back in through the back door and controlling things from behind a mask. Call me paranoid if you like but if you read the statements then it all just seems to fit in to place perfectly, pretty much 'too good to be true'.

If this poster is Andrew Glover, it does seem a bit odd to encounter him on this board.

Having said that, if part of his preparation and research for the bid has been to take a sounding of the clubs most vociferous and passionate stakeholders (that's us, by virtue of the fact that we are signed up and post here), I can only applaud that. It shows enterprise, creativity and an understanding of modern social media - something that has, incidentally, been sadly lacking at WTW in recent years.

If this is the approach and outlook of one of the favourites to buy our club, I'm pretty happy with that. It'll be interesting to see how Mr Parkin responds.
