Sadly, not good enough for SL They were certainly top of the Championship in the indiscipline chart and with 2 players banned - one for knee use against your side,and then Acton for his action against Halifax - they seem to be leading the indiscipline chart in The Qualifiers. There does seem to be some ganging-up against Wakefield - Cry Me A River

An earlier transfer dead-line date should have put a stop to it. It was obvious what they were doing when ex-coach Webster wrote 20 SL games off as friendles.

Let's not forget that for the bleating and moaning that Eddie Hemmings and Paul Rowley did, Wakefield have been playing a 17 that includes 13 players who've been at Trinity all season.

No one seems to want to mention Hock, Higham etc signing for Leigh

A great player who has just made a complete and utter fool of himself. He's worse than Schofield.

I think there are a few flaws to be ironed out in the new structure but to suggest it's designed to stop Leigh or any other club achieving promotion is ludicrous. Everyone knew the rules at the start, some have exploited them better than others.

Re: Leigh : Wed Sep 16, 2015 5:17 pm  

Murphy seems to have virtually thrown the towel in, I hope the rest of the club doesn't follow suit.

As for Celtic, they got into the Play-Off final and a promotion place by illegally signing and paying a dozen Australians. So any "achievements" they made are invalid.
