WE ARE WAKEFIELD, WITHOUT THE RICHARDSONS’ WE ARE STRONGER:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42850.jpg



Quote: paulwalker71 "My son has just been and got ours. Was told that they'd sent someone to Wakey to get more!

Completely amateurish organisation from Wakefield. What made them think that 2K would be enough for the Bulls? As a result there are almost certainly (judging by FB) hundreds of Bulls fans buying tickets from the Wakefield website...'"


They are giving you an initial allocation in line with what I imagine are normal rules. It appears you are being given more so whats the problem?

Look the ground is what it is. In terms of percentage of capacity Wakey aren't doing anything wrong by giving us the initial 2k. They haven't introduced any rules to prevent purchase directly from them instead. Is all this faux outrage because it's squeaky bum time or what?

Don't think i'm biased... ...i'm just very narrow minded!!!!!!!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_28029.jpg



I'm surprised there hasn't been more of a backlash against the Bulls for the way they are selling them.

Firstly I tried this morning for a full hour (until I had to go into meetings) and everytime I was in a queue and then put through to answerphone. No call back has yet been received!!! The main frustration is that despite ringing up, you then have to join the back of the phone queue just cos the club aren't set up to hold people.

The second issue for me is the rumours that folk are buying ridiculous multiples of tickets depsite it being apparently members only. Surely with only 2400 on offer it should be 1x ST = 1x Ticket??? Just hope those that are posting 10+ tickets on twitter have 10x memberships to back it up.

As it is, I ended up managing to get a ticket from a reletive who went to buy at the ground. She had my ST just in case there was this scenario but I would imagine that many have fallen foul and ended up not knowing if they are going to get one.

I hope those that don't get one from Bulls make effort to buy from Trinity. Would be great if there were so many Bulls fans that they ended up having to segregate the crowd in favour of Bulls behind the posts!!! Doubt it though.

More likely because they'll probably try and herd us all onto the Western terrace again - which, given that more than half of the tickets will be sold to Bulls fans, is going to cause a whole load of problems.

It would have been easier to have beaten Halifax, then the problems of the tickets would have been theirs???
But why worry because what is- IS ?

There was no limit on tickets. I thought they might have limited it to maybe 2 per membership card. Also card machines are still not working so it looks like they're just taking down card details which isn't ideal, just hope they don't add an zero to my order when it's processed!!

I think it's harsh blaming the Bulls regarding the phone situation. They sold 1000 tickets in just 2 hours. I'd imagine with work commitments most of them would have been over the phone. To handle that amount of calls you're talking about a medium sizes call centre. We simply don't have the infrastructure or facilities or number of staff to deal with that volume of calls.

Regarding fans buying multiple tickets, I brought 8 but 5 of those already had ST and the others have been to virtually every home and away match. But that's just my personal experience and I understand where you're coming from.

At the end of the day they will be many disappointed fans due to the small capacity, not because of the way the club are selling them.

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.:



The RFL is treating the MPG as a challenge cup tie with regards to sharing gate receipts.

Also, if the numbers of Bulls fans going to the game is 2k+, I don't think the Western Terrace will hold that - so applying segregation on the day would have safety implications.

I don't know whats going on with the card machines. I paid for the tickets for Leigh away intending to use my card. Was told it was out of order - so they took my card details down long hand. To date the transaction still has not appeared on my card statement on line.

I've got my ticket through the Wakefield Site just to be safe. A bit overly cautious i know but this is one of the biggest games we've been in for a while and i for one think we could have over 60% of the crowd as bulls fans

Wakey probably thought that they had to at least go through the motions of giving their fans priority. If they gave the bulk of the tickets to the Bulls and then found they'd underestimated the demand from their fans, even by only a couple of hundred, they'd be slaughtered by their fans.

Over 1500 tickets sold in less than a day is pretty mindblowing imo.

Fantastic effort by the club and fans to sell so many tickets so quickly. I assume by the end of play tomorrow we will have sold out our an entire allocation.

When I was at Odsal at nine O'clock this morning, they were doing card sales as though it was the customer doing an internet purchase and keying in the details [and security no.] by hand into a computer, so no pin to input and no printed receipt.
Decided to get a stand ticket, with a full ground [which it looks like being] it's the best view. A belle vue, one might almost say..
