The truth as ever lays between the two. JK made some errors and didn't cover himself in glory for various reasons in his last year at the club.
That said people like Mopsey and a few others have there own agendas - truth is running a RL club or coaching one is a thankless task and the window of popularity is a small one. There was a time when Ted's name was sung from the terraces and JK was practically King of Wakefield and was loved by all.
People remember what they want to. |

| Quote vastman="vastman"A lot of what you are saying is true, but your credibility is ruined for me until you come clean and stop the pretence that you and Mopsey are not the same person - you are!
You're quick to question the moral fibre of players and fans alike so I'm challenging you to show some integrity and come clean.
Thanks'"
vasty over the years iv been asked if i was mopseys love child, mopseys mum and now try scorer. i also got shouted at going in to the ground if i was sir richard agar on twitter, im none of these and never have been. iv no idea who try scorer his but if he has a knowledge of the academy system hes either a ex player, parent or someone whos involved with the club. quite frankly im my own person and own man i dont hide behind anyone. iv got a point of view which may or may not be liked just like others including you. theres too many in this game who cant lay in bed straight and i aint one of them. ask al to check the ip address aswell if you like. |

| Quote steadygetyerboots-on="steadygetyerboots-on"Thanks for the insight mopsey. Based on what you've put there I think we'd agree on quite a bit. If you ever fancying coming darn't lane I wouldn't hold your "past" allegiances against you!
To take up your point about skills.=#FF0000 It frustrates the life of me when watching RL (all clubs) just how poor the passing from dummy half is. There's no excuse for professional RL players to not pick out a good pass 99% of the time from that position, in my opinion. Do you see this as a failing by amateur coaching at a young level? What could we do as a sport to improve it?'"
If Mopsey and I had £10 for every time we discussed that very point we would be very wealth men. Sadly too many people buy into Stevos scoot from dummy half as being what's best for the game. I can't abide head down up scooter hookers.
However there is a young hooker at Wigan named Luke Waterworth who has superb hands from #9. Major concern is that he may not be big enough. |

| Quote try scorer="try scorer"Not missing your point at all your some teams no names told me your reference was to wake field,Gary Thornton had a job at BV coaching u21s he soon left. when they took a few hammering so winning must have meant something to him.This flippant talk about kids cups really annoys folk who at the time in some cases like mopsey involved in the coaching and others who watch our academy and in that particular year saw the serious way clubs took that u18sleague they all wanted to win it .Don't underestimate what the Wakefield side a heaved that season to finish top of the league and also win the grand final,every team in super league except Catalan was involved and if it was Wigan or Leeds who had done this nobody would try and punch holes in their acheivment'"
Well I can't decide whether you are missing my point or I'm not articulating myself correctly, which is why I said as much. What I do know for sure is that debate is impossible with you as you have no desire to learn, presumably because you know it all.
Thanks for the genuine replies people. |
