i agree, but from a top 5 finish to 11th and unable to attract any real quality. The club has gone back years from where we were last year.


We have gone backwards since last year but i think everybody will admit that we overachieved last year and also the fact that we lost 3 of our most important players during the season must also not be overlooked. Despite all this i still think we should have done better this season.

As for attracting no real quality as of yet, this is the problem with the franchise system, there is so much uncertainty over not just wakey but the future of several clubs meaning nobody knows what will happen when july comes around. At leats with promotion and relagation, players knew that if they came to Wakey and played well and were successful then they would be playing in Super League the year after, now they could come to Wakey play their hearts out finish in the playoffs and still not be in Super league the year after. This means that players we may have been in the market for will choose safer options and sign for other clubs. So in a word i can uderstand why we are having problems signing players.

Whenever i'm at a low ebb with the club and they are doing my head in all i have to do is come on here and read yours and others like you's posts and it makes it all better. It's almost like which road do you take, do you walk with the planks or back the club. Where's my credit card (just in case we go tits up) i'm buying a season ticket

great get your season ticket i am glad i could help. Problem is the club is run by planks. I ould love to see it sorted and th club move forward. Yes we dont have the money other cluvbs have but we are still poor with what we can do. How many sponsors have walked away over the years because of the treatment or lack of it, from the club. Players are walking because of the coaching staff and what do we do, stop JK from leaving and offer beans a new deal, great business. But hey we got rid of all the players we wanted to so we are good know.
