Looking at the squad. If the add a few more of quality it could get interesting.

We will see where both teams are over the opening rounds.


They can hardly lie to other clubs.
They'll all know if they are full time or not.

Suppose that would be true and in the business they would know. Part or full time there’s some handy players in their team.

Looking forward to these next few games to see where we are at.






Top six 2005 - Trinity.

I agree. I've enjoyed watching us so far but I'd like to see some challenging games too.

Fev are definitely part time. They were part time even when they were spending a reported £1million on players.
Most Part-time clubs will have a couple of full-time players, but usually they spend the day doing work with the foundations, and then train in the evenings with the rest of the squad.

This is correct. People tend to confuse "not having a job outside RL" with "full time". As has always been the case, Fev train in the evenings and plenty of the players will arrive there on the back of their day jobs, or in the case of some of the bigger names/overseas signings, having been round schools or helping run activities for the foundation.

That is a big advantage to Trinity. We need to use that time wisely.

Reduced capacity at Post Office Road

That in itself shouldn't impact Wakefield fans as you'll be at the other end of the ground, but it's worth noting the bit at the bottom - there's a fair ground based in the car park at POR for the next couple of weeks so barring limited spaces for blue badge holders close to the main gates (which I imagine you'd need to be contacting the club very quickly before we go) fans are being asked to park away from the stadium.

About 7 of those were unattached though before this season and were signed as free agents having been released by League 1 clubs, from amateur clubs or from rugby union teams.
