In fairness, despite being contacted by numerous reporters, I don't think I've expressed any opinion, never mind a worried one??

I wouldn't be worried either.....

Don't suppose you fancy a new half back do you?

No we've had "Webster hits out" headlines but not seen a "carter turns rabid" one.

I think in fairness to James he was doing a press conference when the news broke, and he was hit with a question instantly.
Whereas I could say no comment from behind my phone. I did question why they weren't asking Marwan instead?
I think this whole bulls/ Wakefield thing has gone totally over the top. I do still believe there should be some penalty for an act of administration. I do respect however, that not everyone will agree with that.

I find the whole idea of punishing an entirely new regime to be slightly counterproductive, but, of course, if there is no punishment, we'll see plenty of administrations as a way of cheating (much like happened at Leeds United).

It's not even the lack of consistency that I find worrying (the fact that Wakefield and Crusaders only got four points and weren't 'fined' a season's worth of money) but the lack of transparency.

Any headlines coming from the camp of your nearest rivals Salford?.

Re: Marc Green statement / Appeal : Fri Jun 27, 2014 4:57 pm  

Is all this not just a cynical exercise to force a moratorium on promotion/ relegation?

Why is there no official word on what our case actually is (other than "we think we have a good case"). All the secrecy and rumours are very damaging to the Bulls and the game.

What a breath of fresh air it would be for a statement to be issued detailing our position so the world can judge whether any of this is actually in the interests of improving the club on the field which is really all that counts for the future.

The only headline I have mentioned is the one that appeared in my twitter feed titled "Webster hits out.." to which your mr c has contextualised. I haven't seen any other headlines but if you have a point to make please spit it out.

That's fair enough. He's not paid to pontificate on this sort of thing whereas, with respect, being gobby is part of your / marwan / hudgells job.

Well there you go then, had I known it appeared in your twitter feed account I might have posted something different, as things stand atm Salford are your nearest rivals in the league yet you find time to post about What the Wakefield coach is saying and not the Salford coach, surely one could be forgiven for thinking you are a tad obsessed by Wakefield.

To be fair I think 99% of bulls Wakey fans get on fine.
Just one or two on forums don't see eye to eye
