To say that its a poor attendance and call people like me "so called supporters" is totally unfair tbh.
I feel the attendance was actually good considering the string of, lets face it, performances. People can say, oh it was JD's last match at Belle Vue, and yes i will thank him for his effort in the years he has been here, but lets face it to think people are going to turn out for just that reason is stupid.

And for what its worth, ive supported wakefield all my life and yes ive seen the relagation battles, play offs etc, and i have to say this team and the performances from this team are arguably worse than the ones from the teams of 2001, 2002 etc, because the sad thing is weve seen this team, even without brough, tronc and Newton can play with performances like Hull Fc at home and Quins at Home.

I will be back next season, with a season ticket and most of all hope. As for this season its finished and the pre season already looks bleak.

Btw, this is my first post on here, so take it easy icon_wink.gif icon_cheers.gif

Quote: musson "trins greatest SL season was our top 6 run where we were narrowly beat by wigan, JD lead the club that year'"


Wasn't Gareth Ellis was captain that year?

EVENTUALLY, WE'LL WIN SOMETHING, ,MAYBE, IF I'M STILL ALIVE THEN:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_31007.jpg



Quote: Khlav Kalash "Perhaps, but 5.5K is about average for this fixture, take the previous three seasons;

2009 - 5,169 - SKY
2008 - 5,436
2007 - 6,119 - SKY

Total - 16,724

Ave 5,575'"


I'm quite surprised at those figures, and last years was when we were playing well (although they didn't bring as many, as they were playing badly and it was a chilly Friday night).

Quote: t-r-i-n-i-t-y "Call him? Certainly not! It's a short career, and, personally, I'd take the chance to prove myself at a bigger club, on a bigger wage with a chance of winning trophies, than being loyal. And when we talk of 'loyalty' what exactly is that worth when the club, correctly in my opinion, haven't offered him another contract.

Do Poching and Ellis regret the Grand Final winners rings they have? Does Westwood regret playing at Wembley? Will Atkins in a fortnight? If you were a player, would you rather battle against relegation - no trophy for finishing second bottom, no glory - or challenge for honours?

Players 'talk the talk' all the time. 'It's a great club, great tradition' and all that rubbish. If you believe anything they say, more fool you.

No, I am not a player, but I've worked in the real world, and when you're offered a job in the same industry, but with a bigger company for better cash, you more than likely take that offer! Say you work somewhere for 8 years, have little chance of progression, but a job appears at another company for better money, you'd be a fool not to take it.

Whether I think Demetriou is a 'great' is not the issue. I appreciate the job he has done. All I ask of players, whether they are here for 2 games or 20 years, is to give their all every time they go on the pitch. Nothing more, nothing less.

'Legend' - no. No player in this era is a legend, not until they lead the club to the glory that the true legends of this club did in the past.

If message boards were around in 1930, I wonder what they'd have made of Jonty Parkin.'"


My eldest lad is named after him squire icon_biggrin.gif

Quote: Tommy Duckfingers "Mopsey would have said he was crap.
Multey would have tried some smartd comment becuase he had nothing relevent to say.
Jonh would have said he was not as good as that lad from Wigan.
NGB4C would have done is Hull KR/Peter Fox routine.
TRB would have said he was a prince amongst men, but Ted couldnt offer the money
Rotherham Fev Fan would have said Kyle Briggs was better.
Vastman would have said Dale Ferguson was better, or that he was never any good once he had left.
BigAl would wait for one of the other mods to post opinion before he knew what his own opinion was.
Sunbed Kid would have said he saw him in Superbowl Carpark the other night so was due to re-sign for us.'"

Quote: trinfan71 "That is fair to say about JD, but unless I am missing the point. People pay to go to matches to see two teams competing, not to watch one man with pride and passion carry 16 others in game against 17 other players.

Nobody as I can see has said that JD has not shown pride or effort. What people are saying is that they are not prepared to part with hard earned cash to watch that shower week in week out. Look at it how you want but that is not turning a blind eye it is living in the reality of the team haven't given the effort we should expect from Professional sportsmen. We have been a playing like a beaten side for months.

To put it in simple terms (as an example) if signed up to a dvd rental package and then after a few months the company sent you copies made from somebody with camcorder in a cinema instead, would you carry on paying for it? No you wouldn't, the same principle applies if people are not getting value for money from a team then people are unlikely to pay out for sentiment.

The simple fact is that at the beginning of the season we were promised McDonalds and finished with a broken down burger van.

Before anyone starts with nobody could have forseen what was going to happen (we started the season with two hookers and a third coming through from the Academy, that negates the need for Newton. It was said on this forum last winter that Brough was going to leave, couldn't we have cashed in then and found a replacement. As for Tronc the club went for a big name when we got rid of a more than capable player in Stosic) or Kear saved us speech (maybe if he had been captain of the Titanic maybe it wouldn't have sunk)'"


That depends how you see it, sunday was about JD and his last game at Wakey for me, you obviously see it differently.

Thats sadly very true.
