Quote: TFC "Good advert, not the best in the world but it's fantastic that potential millions of people will see this.'"
That is certainly true

Quote: TFC "P.S. a quick google search on the clubs name should sort out your HUGEEEE problem smokey. Good work by Mr Glover

i dont think the idea was to promote the sport in general or the competition as neither of these are mr glovers responsibility.

most people will see the ad and not give it a second thought (pretty much like all the other adverts on tv)

however it may provoke some locals (who undoubtedly would know who both teams were) into going along, who may otherwise not know the game was even being played.

good positive marketing idea.

the RFL could learn a thing or two from it

Smokey TA clearly doesn't realise the facts about market segmentation and that a target market has clearly been chosen.

Great effort from Wakefield.

Quote: SmokeyTA "If it really is simply to remind people you exist. Its a very expensive way of doing so.

You may wish to defend everything which comes out of your club as your misplaced view of supporting them, but thankfully we arent all cursed with your idiot blinkers.

In your impotent rage you may have also missed that this is a thread for people to discuss the marketing of the game, what they like what they dont like, what works, what doesnt, what we should try, what we shouldnt. Not as you may have lets all bow at the feet of Wakefield now they have done something pro-active in marketing themselves for the first time in a million years.

It is good that Wakefield are doing this sort of thing (i have already said that but maybe you missed it), More clubs should do this type of thing. It is however a big mistake not to mention the sport or the competition they are playing in when trying to advertise Wakefield, because not doing that excludes many many many more people than it could ever hope to include. And it would ridiculously easy to say "This Sunday the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats clash with the Leeds Rhinos in The Super League, Europe's premier Rugby League Competition".

Hopefully Mr Glover will learn what works and what doesnt from this campaign to improve it in the future and he hasnt taken the Vastman approach of just pretending everything is wonderful and the campaign is 100% correct on first go.'"



What a load of claptrap, a pathetic attempt to dig yourself out of a hole all of your own making. Just for once man up and back down and stop being so petty - a forlorn hope. You're not attempting to discuss, you're a lonely person with nothing better to do, please don't insult us by dressing it up any other way.

The sheer hypocricy is breathtaking. Here is a poster that preaches the virtues of expanding the game knocking the efforts of a club attempting to do just that at no cost to the wider RL world for a change. To knit pick about it is beyond the pale and churlish in the extreme - the act of a petulant small child. My rage isn't impotent luv, I'm frothing at the mouth actually.

If Leeds or anyone else had of made that effort I'd have applauded them in the way I used to applaud Bradford for dragging SL into the modern era. However giving credit or at least zipping it appears way beyond you - I feel sorry for you.

Please no long winded explanations as to the semantics of it all, just shut up and let Andrew Glover have his moment it's not all about you - there's a good fella eusa_shhh.gif

This coupled with the fine community work done by trinity is sends a clear message that the new regime at Wakefield Trinity is VERY serious about running a professional and ground breaking rugby league club.

Already the new regime has made massive strides in improving all aspects of the management of the club... I thought the change of ownership might have come too late for Trinity ... now I am beginning to wonder....

That market being people who already know of WTW, already know of Rugby League and Super League, know of the rivalry with Leeds Rhinos, would recognise the game and the team from the action shots shown and who watch emmerdale, ignoring everyone else.

Seems a very specific segment and a very targeted market to use such a broad medium.

Im not nit-picking nor knocking the efforts of a club attempting to expand the game (something you have previously argued they werent doing saying they were only attempting to reach 'lapsed' fans, something which any idiot can see they arent looking to do, they are trying to expand the game and reach new fans) I have said three times now that it is a good thing that Wakefield are trying to do. I just think they could have done it a lot better with a few minor tweaks and have commented so. You then got your panties in a twist about it.

Cadbury's flake
"only the crumbliest flakiest chocolate etc...."
Woman sits in bath and eats said chocolate seductively
Voiceover:
"For anyone in any doubt, this is a chocolate bar - it's no good for those among you suffering from diabetise and may rot your teeth if you still have any. If you currently eat mars bars, why not give our flake a go - you never know you might like it. If you haven't had a flake for a while, why not try it again, after all you might like it! and chocolate in general, if you're a crisp person then give chocolate a go, YOU MIGHT LIKE IT!"

A bit wordy I know, but maybe some people need all that before they get the message that they might like it icon_beat.gif

A bit wordy I know, but maybe some people need all that before they get the message that they might like it considering it does say 'only the crumbliest flakiest chocolate tastes like chocolate never tasted before' its probably not the best example you could choose. It does explain it is crumbly, flaky chocolate.

I thought the Bon Jovi tune was the wrong song choice. I dont know why the NRL didnt get something more banging on there. Hard drums. Should of got a real banging Hip Hop tune on there.
