Salford fans have zero right to criticise any other club in that regard. They should be grateful and humble for the gift that Wilkinson has worked so hard to achieve and remember where they still play.'"
The difference being Salford have done something about the Willows, Wakey have done fook all about BV. |

Each to their own I guess.  Personally I have never felt so intimidated and relieved to get out of a ground / area then the Friday night game at The Willows when we won the relegation battle match in 2007 (my only visit there). Unwelcoming wasn't the word.  On the other hand have been to Wakey about 7 or 8 times, and regardless of the result I've enjoyed each visit. Traditional ground, great fans, great day.    |

The big difference is Salford have a benevolent Council, Wakefield haven’t. |

| Headhunter - I had forgotton about you.
You must be distraught. Wakefield staying in SL, Crusaders out.
The team you despise staying in (don't deny it ...) and the team you love going out.
Couldnt have happened to a nicer chap, no really.
As for the Salford fan slating us.
The irony ....
Some of the crap I have seen written about my club in the last 24 hours has really amused me
The bitterness is amazing.
Thanks to you all. |

| Quote: headhunter "I'm no advocate of Salford, but my gripe with Wakefield is that they have repeatedly promised extensive ground improvements over a number of years and all they have delivered in that time is a giant inflatable cat over the players' tunnel. Neither club has an acceptable fan base, hopefully Salford's will grow in a better venue. I can't really see Wakefield's increasing.'"
To be fair to Wakey those broken promises were made by a totally different regime, and if they get through the public enquiry they will have a shiny new stadium in time for the next round of licence applications. I know it's early days but the new owner at least appears to be making steps in the right direction, and presumably put together a good case in their application. Lets see how things go forward from here rather than judge them on the past mistakes of a different owner. |

Perhaps you weren't around in the early - mid eighties when crowds of 13/14/15000 were commonplace at the Boulevard.Just sayin.Carry on. |

WR, you'd be doing yourself (and the rest of the Salford fans) a favour if you didn't spout rubbish like this. Wakefield have a long and proud history and Belle Vue has been the scene of many matches which will live in the memory of Wakefield fans. There will be just as many tears shed for the end of that era as there will be at the last game at The Willows. Both grounds have seen better days (and better teams) but the memories will always be there. |

Confirmed to me yesterday straight from the horses mouth that Wakefields application was not in the bottom 3!
No other clubs names were mentioned but clearly Fax and Crusaders were two of them.
Time will prove this to be correct.
