Not being as knowledgeable as a couple on here would have you believe they are, for me it's pretty simple every young player has a price, and when you are strapped for cash as we are and cannot afford to keep them interested financially like the big clubs' and can't offer them regular first team football because they are simply not good enough yet, just what are the club supposed to do when clubs' come along like Bradford and Leigh what can offer regular games and more money because they don't have to pay for expensive foreign imports, I'm sure that the club realise their potential just as much as the other clubs that bought them do, and in an ideal world they would still be here but mainly because of finances there not, Kay had one good game for us made famous by big Ali against Cas, Washaw although he may do in the future has not exactly ripped it up at Bradford yet, all the club is guilty of is letting potential go and not world beaters, but it suits some people on here's agenda to cause mischief by having you believe so.
Who are you referring to Chisitt?
I'm certainly not mischief making, just pointing out what I believe is the case at Wakefield, maybe I'm wrong!
If I'm right and if you're right (our views aren't necessarily mutually exclusive) and we accept your view for the truth then, as fans, we can't moan about letting our young players go.
If that's the case though, we have to accept and get comfortable with the reality that we will never attract or hold onto the better juniors. We will always have to bring cast offs, overseas 'B' class players and near retirees to Wakefield while waving our established young superstars goodbye as they move on to Leeds.
While our nearly established young players with potential to make it are never trusted enough to get the job done while they learn their trade, as juniors at other clubs are allowed to do, so they'll move on to Leigh and Bradford.
