And the rest.

Two poundlands ffs. Don't know your born.

Yep that's my take on it. On the averages, even taking out the couple of cheap ticket years we had, where we averaged nearly 8200 and 7600. Before the last couple of years, we were averaging from around 6000 to just over over 7000. I mean the drop was bound to happen after what we went through in a relatively short time.
Take Bradford a far bigger City than Wakefield . They went from averaging between 12k and 14 gradually down to 7k by 2010 after not having the success they used to have. They went the cheap ticket way after that and boosted their attendances but once they stopped and went through financial problems they were down to just over 6k. Conversely look what a new ground and a bit of success has done for Wire, just about doubled their attendances.

Reading this forum, I think everyone knows MC has a massive millstone around his neck and there's the ground too!

Still better than the food banks much beloved in Cas.

You know what you need to do to relieve your frustration - go on the VT and make a petulant post predicting that Wakefield the home of Poundland will finish bottom - then for added effect get your little buddy to back you up.

Nah you wouldn't do anything as oafiish as that, oh wait...........

Because there's no food banks in Wakey, eh Vasty? Good to see you've not changed and you're still a insufferable pompous know-it-all.

How do people cope with you on here? Do you still get aggressive and rant at people who don't agree with you? you sad colossal whopper!

Oh ye nearly... forgot how's the Greg Inglis like Lucas Walshaw getting on? Guffaw!

I see Vastman is still getting massive chomps ...



Anyway, back on topic. Season ticket sales, let's hope we have a mad rush in time for Christmas (I won't hold
my breath mind)

Won't last they will soon scuttle off back to their own little forum where they can create there own reality, where they never have to justify anything they post.

Shows the real difference between the two sets of supporters although there are one or two Cas fans brave enough to join the debate. Unable to take modest criticism the rest hide. We are at the end of endless mindless jibes and we stop and fight our corner.

Stand up Trinity fans and take a bow

Well, welcome to our forum Kippaxer.
You will get the same warm welcome that all our visitors get.

However, so far all I've seen is derailing a thread and trying to goad a Wakefield fan on the Wakefield forum.
I openly admit that I'm more tollerant of home supporters winding each other up than I am of visitors just coming on here for a virtual spat.
So consider this your warning. Play nice or we'll send you home with a note to your mum and we'll close the door behind you.

A little over the top but on the whole very near to the bone, I worked at Nestle on Wheldon road till it closed so have practically lived among them.
Two instances.
Prior to its closure I got talking to a young lass one Friday morning, it turned out she was 24, we had the usual chat, what's your plans for the weekend? etc. She told me she was so excited, she was going into Wakey for the night, her first time ever, I was pretty shocked at this so quizzed her a little more and she said it was her first time in Wakey ever and that included shopping. She'd never been into Wakey in 24yrs.
A second one, a lad I worked with and had a few nights around Cas with after the Wakey games lives on the edge of Cas town centre. He's 56, he retired when the factory shut, to this day (and it's four or five years since) he hasn't been out of Castleford, no holiday, no day in Leeds, no food shopping in Ponte, that is quite shocking, I've ribbed him about it and he's quite proud of the fact.

I bet they can both play the banjo though!

That sounds so wrong, that could be taken two ways, but on both sides, yes.
