| If we cant pull our game against KR forward then it should be Sunday that way we play 3 Sunday’s on the bounce with a weeks rest between games. Maybe kick it off earlier to avoid clash with any TV game as well.

| Quote GIANTSRL="GIANTSRL"we did get relegated in the end though and served our punishment and won promotion.
those years finishing bottom of the league damaged the club no end, we lost a generation of fans..not many 20/30yr olds come watch the giants, they were lost, it wasnt good watching the team get thrashed every week believe me!
i could throw back at wakefield that they have been done favours by the rfl in recent times with the stadium not being upto sl standard so shouldnt have been given a license.
players come and go from clubs its just the way it is, wakefield havent done so bad from us in recent times.. kirmond, grix, huby , wood etc
we have a really good academy nowadays and are producing our own which we have done for a while now crabtree, mcgillvary, cudjoe, lawrence, jake connor, leeming, mcintosh and more in the pipe line (two 17yr old twins played the other week).
giants doing it tough right now and competing with a thriving football club but things will change again... be a few years but we have had some good recent times with two cup finals, few years of semi final play offs and a league leaders shield.. wakefield cant still only dream of these.'"
Aren’t Kirby and English from Wakefield amateur clubs?

isn't Christian Akroyd from Illingworth amateur club and didn't we have a lad from Cumbria Liam Paisley for a while,
lads will play for who they want and what they get offered, you can't force someone to play for you
be thankful that we still have players wanting to play rugby in this area

As far as the license went, Trinity only survived due to Crusaders withdrawing their application at the very last minute and we all know that Trinity may not have been alive at all, had they (Crusaders) found some cash.
'"
Remarks like this will only fuel the keyboard warriors. Wasn't it well understood that Rimmer (or Solly) said that our application was not the weakest and it was a misconception that we would have been booted out had Crusaders not withdrawn.

Correct, think it was Blake Solly who said it.

| If every club owned their own stadium we wouldn't have all this.

If this is right, I stand corrected
However, it was notable at the time that Trinity were the ONLY club keeping the press out and whilst Solly may have said that we weren't the worst application, do you not think that, in saying this, he was perhaps deflecting fire from himself.
Say what you like but, at the time, we appeared to be on our way out.

That was the perception and the story line the media and other fans revelled in. It is not backed by fact though, there are NO facts to say that it was a correct assumption to make. If Solly said we were not the weakest then we need to defend that.
I'm sick of fans of other clubs having a go at us and throwing up incorrect statements like we would have been out had Crusaders not withdrawn. If our own fans support their incorrect assumptions then it just belittles our club.
We get enough stick as it is about things out of our control. We should be united in presenting the FACTS and not letting people purport a misguided agenda.

Dont want to labour the point as this is all water very much under the bridge now.
However, I wouldnt have taken his words quite as literally as yourself, as they were made in response to the likes of Halifax not getting the gig rather than a glowing recommendation of Trinity's application.
As I say, what occurred means noting now and with the fall from grace of Bradford, that all come under the category of "bygone era".
Back to the game and it seems that we may be facing a somewhat less injury ravaged Huddersfield, revved up by their new coach and our game could be his first.
