| Quote: PopTart "The title of the thread and comments about Wakefield implied you had issue with Wakefield. If you say not I'm fine with that.
But saying you won't go because you don't want to give money to Wakefield is exactly not supporting your club.
As for the fixtures. Clearly it affected Bradford so you would notice more than me. I was just saying I hadn't seen them change. They don't seem to have for us.
Anyway, let's see how this weekend goes. It would be nice to be watching two teams with 2 points each next week.'"
Hi again PT,
May I refute your idea that I won't go to the Wakefield game because I wouldn't want to give money to the club, is ridiculous,to me anyway. I don't ever believe staying away and cutting off your nose to spite your face is the silliest reason to not go to any game!
As for your comment on fixtures, both Hull KR and Bradford are the affected teams, as we both were subjected to a home fixture against team 6 (the 12th Finisher in SL) which was changed to an away fixture. In fact team 6 in every instance was replaced by team 7 (Sheffield). This in no way is any fault of your club? But I asked why, and as supporters shouldn't we have been told by the RFL? If it was a logical reason don't we deserve to be told what it is?
As for the £80k per team, this was never mentioned in the original policy review, and of course the new Sky deal doesn't kick in until 2017, so this £80k either came out of the £300k SL clubs got at the end of 2014, as a parachute payment> but if that was the case why didn't they say so at the time??
My case now rests!

| I get the change thing now. I hadn't seen a change but everyone else seems to have so I bow to the greater knowledge.

| Regarding the change, it was just poor planning/management by the RFL. However the changes are much fairer as the team that finished first in the championship for 2 SL teams at home to originally having 1. Was just poor planning the RFL were so late in making the changes.
Anywhere which ever teams don't go up, it's because they weren't good enough on the field, not because of the fixtures.

By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013
Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

| In fairness to the OP, the players Boycotted Wakefield today too.

| I'm glad I did boycott and not just because of the rubbish served up on the field.
Being on the receiving end of bottle throwing and racist chanting isn't my idea of fun.
Before people come out with the its a minority of fans line that just lets them off the hook. The Sky cameras picked up the chants as they did when they played cas, as they picked up the saints fans with blood pouring down their faces and the cameras picked up the flares launched onto the field at Cas.
Suspended fines clearly don't work so I'm expecting some action this time.
If they also leave belle Vue for the Tetley's stadium will they be doing building work so that it meets the Superleague criteria? Probably expecting special treatment again from the RFL letting them have special dispensation aa they did with belle che when they first came into superleague.
That would call for an open letter or a dog turd through a letter box of a sanctimonious pratt in sandal!

| I wonder how many of these things you'd have been so up in arms about had you won the game like you all expected to do?
I'm not condoning the behaviour of some of our fans, I'd rather we didn't have them, but all clubs do unfortunately. But there is a distinct case of sour grapes here because we turned up for an important game and your guys didn't.

"I'm not condoning their behaviour but..." . You stay classy! I've emailed Blake Solly and pointed where on the DVD the chanting is clearly heard.
The rest is up to him.

| The problem for Wakey is that the racist chanting just helps to perpetuate the stereotype. With such small crowds surely it must be a priority to deal with it or it will drive decent fans away. I suppose that if money is tight then maybe getting rid of the undesirables would reduce income.
The whole experience is pretty grim at Belle Vue.......especially when you lose.

| I've not idea what is happening regarding payments for hosting sky games. However, the RFL are terrible wen it comes to implementing these new ideas. In what other sport would nobody know the format or who you play at what venue until about 3 weeks beforehand. This should be fully explained and structured before the season so everyone is clear that finishing 1st, 2nd or 3rd in Championship results in this fixtures

However, the team need all the help they can get and packing out the terraces at Belle Vue to create a fantatsic atmosphere could be more important than squabbling over the extra money being stuffed in Carters pockets before Trinity are sent packing to the Championship!!!
Personally always loved going to Wakefield so won't be missing this for the world.'"
Trinity sent packing the championship lol
