Anyone heard goss that there’s been a bust up at the top.
I am as fed up as have ever been and this is probably my time to give up. I’m very fit and in my 70s, love going, but so many old fans like me seem on the verge of finishing too, they are worn out by constant crap.
Stuff like players allegedly having to bring their own breakfast and lunch due to penny pinching. Everything seems toxic. Are we going in one direction or two? Can it be clarified if we are allegedly trying to offload blocks of players, the stadium and control? Sponsors are probably edgy too, I know one is. The Facebook stuff is dreadful to read and thoroughly demoralising for fans to read as it looks like it’s asset stripping.
After Thursday’s game, win or lose, hopefully the former, a statement of intent would help (before it would galvanise support).
At the end of the day, Trinity is a business, entertainment, there is none, and whoever is responsible needs to relinquish decision making immediately even if it’s ordering coffee or a pizza!
If Thursday is a disaster, the revolving door will be in overdrive with no chance of avoiding the trap door.
PLEASE b.o.d. Give us a clue WTF is really going on.

Yes I know right.

Mention of assett stripping yet the only deal confirmed is Hall for Dagger and reasons explained why.

The problem is that Facebook site and people use it to vent and take the Mickey out of the club. They’ve no interest in support at all bar a select few.

They’ve started rumours of Whitbread, Tanginoa, proctor and potentially Atoni all in this past week.

In reality, the club are likely looking at options to improve the situation.

The problem is that group. We don’t need it on here either. I certainly don’t.






Top six 2005 - Trinity.

I noticed one of the rumour posts on FB said they'd read on here that Kelepi was being swapped with Evans at Hull. Yet that was never mentioned on here.....until after the FB post, where they referenced the FB post.
Just seems like some are desperate to spread mischief rumours for the sake of it.......like a post titled "Bust up" with no basis for it at all.

I hear all sorts, virtually none of it true.

People at the club may disagree, is that the same as a bust up? No it isn't.

At 70 I'd have thought you'd have worked that out.

If we win on Thursday everything will be OK. If we lose things like this will get even worse. These things are just symptoms that are brought on when things are going bad.

25000 posts or more to your name Vasty. All sweetness and light obviously.
It’s a small clique on here and presumably you 25 users all agree with each other.
I ran a business for 40 years so have a modicum of sense, hopefully. Normally I try to ignore most and just support. I’ve removed myself from Facebook, that was essential. I’m not going to lower myself to explain where this came from but was just stating the bleeding obvious. There are not enough people involved, i.e. a director of rugby, someone who knows a poor investment before signature, possibly cost again and the ensuing chaos is a reflection. Hopefully, someone is trying to grab the thing by the throat and salvage something. It’s in my blood and I support the game from another level, but for now..

You clearly have no idea what despicable people are really like, go to the mirror.
