| Good news for a club that really, really deserves some good news at the moment. I think pitching the capacity at 12K is spot on. Even the threat of an occasional sell out will drive demand up and with a bit of clever marketing for the less-popular games, it could have a very positive impact on the Wakefield average gate.
See, not everyone at HKR is bitter & twisted!

But in this instance you are out of touch with reality. The planned stadium is for now just a plan. It is unlikely to get off the ground.

The Location is about 10 minute drive outside of Wakefield right next to the M62. For away fans it's perfect, and although not in a residential area i do think with a good bus service will prove easily accessible by all.
With the site likely to be Brownfield i think this has led to it being chosen.

| I think it is a good move going to 12K capacity. Im guessing that it will be fully enclosed like the keepmoat is because i feel that would be ideal as it is a very nice stadium. (Maybe you should jus try and move it from doncatser and change the seat colours.
Would wakey fans prefer to have a part of the ground for terracing or are you happy with fully seated?

| All things considered I think 12K is about right for Wakey aslong as they forward plan to be able to increase without to much trouble or cost should they need to.
Good luck to Wakey and hope it works for them.

It would have sufficed for Bradford in all but the Leeds game last year.

| It's the one thing that's holding Wakefield back, so I wish them all the best. They deserve some positive news!

| Not particularly ambitious and doesn't leave a huge amount of room for a club in a league aiming for a 10k average minimum
Saying that it's better than nothing if it comes off, but we have been here before and ended up no further forward,
Good luck to them I hope it comes off
