Quote: Theboyem "Thats not the local council though, it's the general election vote. I think the labour council vote is much more one sided although i could be wrong.
The problem is most of the voters in Wakefield couldn't give a stuff about Trinity and whether we get a stadium or or not. They are bothered about pot holes, child care, schools etc first and probably rightly so as it's that which concerns them. And others would never vote tory because of what they did to the mining industry (and are continuing to do). In fact some of Trinity's own fans don't like where the new stadium should be anyway which doesn't help either! Can't see anything other than the same again, especially after 5 years of a tory government and it's cuts and back door privatisation.'"
If the public of Wakefield want to vote labour in the national elections so be it. However its the local elections where we have a problem.
You say the public are not bothered about Trinity and are more concerned about schools child care etc. Well from what I can see the local councillors have also been crap in that area as well. Box and his predecessors have had total unopposed power over our City for the last 41 years and
I think Wakefield has gradually gone slowly down hill for every year of their tenure.
Not only are they treating our club with total disregard, if you open your eyes and look around the state of or City and the way its going then that alone should tell everyone its time for a change.
