Toby The Tram Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Signed up in early April, has left already. Family and work commitments the main reasons given by him but I also reckon with the situation that's going on I can't imagine him wanting to be here. Sounds like we want a fee for him if he moves to Doncaster as well. Not sure why we'd want a fee for him when in several years gone by we've had lots of Waterman-esque players that we have just released. Especially when you look at the likes of Lineham where all we got in return for him was a pre season friendly and no fee.

AndyHall Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I imagine if Lee wanted to go anywhere but Doncaster, he'd be released as a free agent - but look who's coaching at Donny...

I admire any club who is run for the fans. Am I only allowed to express an opinion if it's in support of the club? Is that how it should work? http://www.alldesignandprint.co.uk Printing & Graphic Design with Nationwide Service Programmes | Leaflets | Cards | Banners & Flags | Letterheads | Tickets | Magazines | Folders | Brand Identity plus much more Official Matchday Programme Print & Design Partner to York City Knights, Heworth ARLFC, York Acorn RLFC & Hunslet RLFC Official Player Sponsor of Marcus Stock for the 2020 Season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club I want to support and put my heart and soul into is run like a working mens club and it's never going to achieve what it should in a city like York. We all know why.

Peter G. Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Am I only allowed to express an opinion if it's in support of the club? Is that how it should work? YES! Of course thats the way it should work. Thought you knew this Simon. There are certain people who have tried to manipulate this forum over the years with the sole aim of stifling any debate that may question how York City Knights is run. All done in the name of so called loyalty. IMO misguided loyalty. You may hear some fans say that they have given up on this forum because of so called negativity. Whilst there may be some truth in this there are I believe many others who have stopped posting AND stopped supporting the Knights simply because they are seen by a certain element as being "disloyal fans". Earlier this year I said in a post that I believed that for the good of the club fans of all persuasions should try to work together, listen to what is being said and properly debate the issues. In recent weeks it has become more and more apparent that I was seeking the impossible. Issues are NOT debated, perceived critics are slapped down. As long as any fan is labelled as being negative and presumably disloyal, as the above posters have intimated, then there never will be any chance that ALL FANS of professional rugby league in York will work together.

Pete - you know as well as I do that no matter what the club do certain people will find the negative is absolutely anything - in the meantime, Fordy and the club are trying to attract players, sponsors & supporters to the club for the benefit of the people who are capable of moving on from recent events - yep - really helpful. You must know a few local current players - have a chat with them - just see what they think of totally negative ###### put on here and on social media - they are sticking with the club so if people just cannot give fair, balanced views then please do not bother.

So it's a well run club then is it Col? Tell me: •Who's the commercial manager? Who's the general manager? Who's the director of rugby? Who's the chief executive? Who's the chairman? Where are all the missing fans? Where are all the sponsors? Why is all the commercial side of the club done like a 6th form school project? When you've got answers for all that stuff which a decent club should have I'll shut my cake hole. http://www.alldesignandprint.co.uk Printing & Graphic Design with Nationwide Service Programmes | Leaflets | Cards | Banners & Flags | Letterheads | Tickets | Magazines | Folders | Brand Identity plus much more Official Matchday Programme Print & Design Partner to York City Knights, Heworth ARLFC, York Acorn RLFC & Hunslet RLFC Official Player Sponsor of Marcus Stock for the 2020 Season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice if we had all those positions filled but wonder just how many other clubs actually have those positions never mind have them filled. The club is 'what it is' at the moment - it has directors, a coach who is happy to stay and players that are happy to sign (and you can't tell me its because of the money). So that's where we are CURRENTLY - a set of people who are very much together as a group and are happy to get on with giving me (and a lot of others) a team to support.
