Im sorry, im not a stadium geek. I couldnt care less what the facilties are like. Im there to watch rugby league, not walk around going "oh these seats are radical, awesome, MEGA!" I prefer my away days to consist of good natured banter with away fans and a good pint. Which I have always had in abundance at wakefield. Compare that to your favourite english team Hull kr, where the beer is on a par with that served by novice home brewers and a place im lucky to survive getting out of alive

Last time I attended the seats in the main stand were wooden. But that was a while ago, in 2003. I refused to go back after I stood in the toilets and had someone else's pee splash on me, because they couldn't afford modern (late 20th century) urinals.
That "stadium" is a disgrace, and if they have replaced the splintering wooden seats with plastic ones, ok. But how about the fact that nowhere is the seating elevated to the point that you can look down on the game? It is only marginally above the standard of the PNG Hunters Kalabond stadium in Kokopo, PNG.

| Quote: Leaguefan "What's the problem with attendances?
All SL clubs make their money from the TV deal and anything else is a bonus!!!
Sky couldn't give 2 hoots about attendance at the ground. All they are interested in is eyes on the box and they do make a profit.
If the clubs can't budget with the amount of money they KNOW they are guaranteed to recieve then more fool them if they go down the pan.
Sensible (LOL) clubs know how to use the guaranteed monies wisely.'"
You think clubs should only budget to spend £1.6m per year? |

Thought as a Todd Carney superfan you'd love a bit of urinal based pee fun. |

Yay, we'd finish second in the league!
Or bottom, I suppose. |

6,436 at Lavington Sports Ground, Albury on this rainy Saturday to see Manly vs Canberra in the NRL.
Albury sits right on the border of NSW and Victoria. Not a rugby league heartland.

If they are sensible yes, but this is RL and sensible is not within the games vocabulary  |

And the money needed to finance the off field operations of the club? £0?

Seriously? You can't see why your suggestion is totally impractical? |

For those who defend Wakefield, lets compare.
How long have Wakefield been a Rugby League club?
How long have London Broncos been a Rugby League club?
