Quote: Belle Vue "I didn’t go yesterday (on holiday) but having now seen the tries and read the comments on here, you don’t have to be Einstein to work out that with our first choice centres out … Salford we’re always going to target this area of the field…
Nor am I going to pick out individuals for criticism, because hopefully, if they are honest with themselves they will be suitably embarrassed by their performance’s..

Trinity are in a difficult situation at the moment we are way down on the cap spend we don’t have a money bags chairman to throw money….. large amounts wasted on expensive Australians I might add….. to keep us challenging for even a mid table finish, so we end up with some players that are not up to the task..
As some of our more sensible posters have mentioned.. we might be able to ease this situation when the new stand and other alterations are completed and we start to generate more income….this hopefully is about a year away, but until then I’m afraid games and barren spells will continue to happen.
After listening to John Minards podcast on trinity heritage you can see that him and Michael Carter both have the best interests of the club at hart… and as a fan I also remain 100% behind the pathway that they take the club down…
John Minards mentioned in his interview about shares he had put into the club… now while I appreciate that we’ as fans are not all flush with cash is this not something that could be looked at? Possibly as a way of bridging the gap between now and the new stand opening…
We all care about the club or we wouldn’t be on here airing our views….
Just putting this out there for discussion …we’re nearly there we just need to hold the line a little longer…because when you look past the results and baron spells the club is moving in the right direction…'"


Was thinking that this was the wrong time to be raising this sort of idea after such a heavy defeat but with hindsight it’s exactly the right time as it highlights our plight in terms of investment. Most people on here love Wakefield Trinity otherwise they wouldn’t be on here. Hopefully you can get some traction on this idea. £1k is a lot of money but when you consider how much of our time, attention and social lives Trinity takes up then for those who can afford then it’s a small price. Like many on here I had some of the old Ted shares in the club and I also knew they were worthless but they meant and still do mean the world to me.

I was there on Sunday and it was tough watching but it felt a bit like a line in the sand day. WTID

Quote: coco the fullback "The improvements will take the ground out of the basket case category.
All we need then is some kind of investor who thinks, "tell you what, with a little investment in the western terrace, that could be a tidy stadium "'"


That’s almost certainly the aim.

Once two stands are done and the income steams are better then it starts to become tempting.

I’m not sure the west terrace will be high on the list other than maybe a tidy up. The problem with the west stand is that it’s hemmed in and can only take a modest upgrade. One that sadly will not improve the revenue stream enough to pay for itself let alone make a profit.

What you will get is investment in players. Then maybe if we gain success you might get more demand and then the redevelopment of the west stand might make sense.

All the same further council investment may be the real way forward on the ground.

Quote: vastman "Without wanting to sound patronising its a very easy formula to work out.

The East stand is the key. At present it contains zero facilities. Its only income stream is match-day seats, it doesn’t even have genuine food and drink outlets.

The new stand will cost the club nothing, there are no repayments. So from day one it’s making money. Apart from doubling the potential seating income, with all the add ons like bars etc it probably makes each seat 25% more profitable, maybe more. Whist the 24/7 nature of the new structure makes for another vastly improved revenue stream. Again I must point out that the club will not be paying a single penny more for all this in terms of loans etc than it does now. It’s an instant cash cow if done right.

Ditto the old clubhouse and flats. As part of a vastly improved environment most notably the car park - there ability to generate income also becomes greatly enhanced. Suddenly a party or even a wedding at the BV flats no longer appears the horror show it is now.

The North stands revenue creation depends more on how the club is performing on the pitch. I’ll put it this way, if you don’t attend regularly you are far more likely to if the team is winning and your no longer at risk of breaking an ankle.

The pitch and what they do with it is the most interesting and it’s clearly the main community element. Go artificial and the usability is almost endless and the returns are high.

Back to the East stand. The shear attractiveness of this new frontage will be the key imho. BV has never had a decent main road frontage. Thus it has never really had a presence in the city. The new stand will instantly become iconic. You won’t be able to miss it where as now most people pass BV and even if they do notice it they don’t believe such a dump could be the home of a famous RL club. At last the club will have a base of operation and a certain grandeur it so lacks at present.

So finally, all the above attracts money. Many people are fickle and attracted to image. The new BV like it or not will attract the bandwagon jumping prawn sandwich brigade but it’s their money that will make the difference. So as a diehard I say welcome aboard and hand over your disposable income as soon as possible.'"

The Benidorm flats are a complete joke who bloody hell wants a wedding reception there no nobody bull

Wow even for you that’s missing the point. Somebody on a budget might we are not all as high and mighty as you.

However I was actually thinking of the new 250 seat function room in the new stand.

I’ve asked this before but are you well?

You do really need to read up on the details before throwing your criticism around.

We went to a wedding reception a quite a few years ago, easy to park was plenty of space, dancing area, food was ok nothing to complain about, over all was a great night
I should imagine it was budgeted for but they was also fans of the club and gave their custom to them.

You could book the holmfield house at thornes park but that I expect would cost a lot more
