Bradford having around a 250k larger population so you'd only presume the attendances are larger? Especially now the football season has finished?

What happened to the 10/11k Bradford used to get??

Quote: Tricky2309 "As you most likely know there were more at the Wakey game than Bradford one. However, not sure what relevance crowd numbers have if a team is competitive on the field and is being run properly financially off it.

As we are having a degree of success on the field with one if not the lowest wage spends in SL whilst you are top of a mostly part time league where you undoubtedly spend more than any other team, I think I know which I prefer, regardless of how many other folk may be at the game'"


Indeed
!0,000 fans and still losing money or, 5000 fans and being top 6 and turning a small profit.
Hopefully, we can keep growing from the solid foundations in place.

Some of those Bulls fans are extremely bitter.

You are getting a lot of bites on this but I find it hard to see how we are an embarrassment compared to Bradford.
You had it all and threw it away. We had nothing and made something pretty good.
I'm pretty proud of that.

Quote: fun time frankie "I’d have thought you should be pulling in better crowds than this as you play attractive rugby got a decent squad pushing for the play offs am I right in thinking you where getting 7000 plus a couple of seasons or so ago, I’m not trolling by the way Wakefield is my favourite away day'"


One thing is the stadium issue (as everyone likes to point out). Another was we used to draw in nearly 9k cos Glover and Elston gave them freebies which was unfeasible. Next was the Agar/Webster era which did know good whatsoever.

I think in order for us to boost attendances we need to a Cas ie reach top four or five in consecutive seasons plus an odd trip to Wembley.

You’re not getting 5000.

It’s field fans coming onto our board trolling when we’re two divisions below you.

We’re not bitter why do you lot need to do that?

Top six you might be but that inferiority complex still continues.

A mod backing up trolls because he’s a small minded Pratt is the sort of behaviour I’ve come to expect from you lot.

I’m embarrassed for you now, possibly the most pathetic dummy spit in history.

Anyway you’re even more wrong than you think on this one, the attendance figure for this fixture was actually over 8,000 - go on work that out pond life.

A Super League club can’t be sustainably run on numbers like that. It’s only a matter of time until someone has to throw you a few quid for Bill Toupou or Tom Johnstone IMO, unless Carter has some serious money behind him, but I don’t believe he does.

Try telling Michael Carter that, he seems to be making a good job of it, plus I would expect the crowd yesterday to be one of the worst of the season for us as there weren’t too many from Widnes there

You know this how? We don’t seem to have any bother signing up our star players on long term deals despite these supposed wads of cash being waved at them so change the record.

Despite being top eight for three years now we are yet to lose a single one that we wanted to keep - how odd.

It’s very simple, the club is debt free - we run below the cap and always have a bit in reserve.

Of course we’ll lose the odd one eventually all teams do but what will then happen is we’ll do our homework and find the next Bill Tupou or whoever, we’ve been doing it successfully for years and tbh it’s not rocket science.

Truth is it’s the last bit that really winds you elitists up, we defy your preconceptions by simply being smarter with our limited resources than anyone else. I cant see that changing and I see no reason why it won’t carry on working.

You only have to look at the old poster boys Bradford to see how wrong it can go or is that how you think SL should be, boom based on a lie then bust.

One thing I do know is that your man Hetherington is a huge admirer of Carters Wakefield and nobody know how to create success on a budget better than him.

So jog on luv.

Wakefield remain a nothing club. Never done a thing in decades. Won't be doing anything for decades and have a 'ground' which is so embarrassing it makes Castleford's look a palace.

They should be removed from Super League on the basis of that shed of a stadium.
