| On the 26th we will be told our fate, if we get the boot are you staying to support AG and the name of Wakefield Trinity or are you legging it and running for the hills.
I'll stay because whatever feelings i have about the franchise system Wakefield till i die means exactly that and when i'm gone i'll leave money in my will to buy a season ticket the year after.
You guys can call it how you see it but "stuff em" they ain't getting shut of me.

| I'll still be here, as I said when mergers are banded about I support Wakefield Trinity not SL. Perhaps id adopt the Catalans as the team I want to see do well in the top flight but i'll certainly not turn my back and Trinity, whatever division they're in.

| After 10 years of only seeing the odd game live, I have the bug again and will definitely be watching next season, might even go to some away games if we go down.
Whichever league were in there will be a clean slate as we will have different coaching staff and players, might even be playing at a different ground. I think some whose emotions are understandly running high at the moment and who have said they will be done with the game if we get demoted, after the "off season" may ultimately be tempted back, particularly if things are progressing with the PI for NM and we have some new blood coaching and playing.

| Well Al, there's the rub!
Initially your crowds will kind of hold up reasonably well. But when reality begins to bite (and it's a piggin nasty bite on it), then the crowds I would suspect, would beging to erode until you are left with your core support trundling along to a championship game every week. They haven't got shut of me - YET! But when/if Fev disappears from the game, so will I!!
iT'S a blast down here, and you will find the entertainment and craic just different. There are fewer of us and you tend to get to know almost everyone. You'll be amazed at how many opposition fans you will get to know and actually become mates with.
There rugby is more direct and less intricate. It's more "how it used to be"!
Tough one. We'll see.

| I've stayed supporting through thick and thin for about 50 years. In that time I've seen really great highs and some pretty miserable lows, but to me, if you're a real fan, you stick with your club whatever happens because it's the club you support - not just this season's players, coach, owner, performance.
So as you can guess I'll be there next season whatever happens!!!!

| I'll be supporting them wherever whenever. My love is for WTW, the history of the club, the community it represents and the thriving district built upon RL.
The RFL can do what they want, but we all know when the Quins, Crusaders etc fail, it'll be the likes of Wakefield who'll have to pick up the pieces. The club will always survive, and will thrive with a new stadium. Why? Because we have history and tradition, there's a geniune interest in RL, we have a supporter base and we have a thriving development area.
Wakefield will thrive regardless of what the RFL and others think

| I've watched wakey in Perpignan, London, Wales, gateshead, Wigan, Warrington, st helens, widnes, Leigh, Salford, cas, Bradford, Leeds, Halifax, hull, and huddersfield I've watched wakey in Carlisle, barrow, Workington, whitehaven, Nottingham, chorley, batley, Sheffield, Oldham, Rochdale, dewsbury, hunslet, Doncaster, keighley, featherstone, York and Swindon. I'll gladly go to any of the above grounds again to support my team. I've enjoyed going to all the above grounds equally as the only reason I was there was to see the boys in action. I'll continue to buy a season ticket and I'll get the shirt every year. I support Wakefield trinity not the rfl. I'm in this for the long haul and I'll bring my kids up that way too

| FWIW I think we'll have a blast.
We'll be the only full time squad (so no excuses!), we'll have a good old road show of "proper RL" grounds and clubs.
Educate some of our younger fans on how things used to be.
Win a great deal of trophies, before our glorious march into Newmarket and the return to SL.
I'm actually looking forward to getting back to enjoying my RL, instead of the facility/planning/back biting of the last 4 years.

| I'd like to see some sort of deal for ST holders if we are forced out of SL along the lines of Bradford to try and keep the majority of fans attending

I agree it would be a good time to try something like that out. £50 season ticket if the club reach 4000 members, maybe be a little optimistic but its worth a try.

Sorry to pee on your bonfire but:-
1) Don't underestimate the quality in the championship. - They're will be plenty in that league capable of competing for 'the trophies'. Wakey will NOT have it there own way.
2)Getting back into SL???? Aye, when you've entered the land that the RFL have forgotten, you'll realise your knuckles are bleeding from knocking on the RFL's door, but when no-one answers you will have the same expression on your face as me!!
After what feels like an eternity at championship levels and some of your fans have begun to seek their entertainment elsewhere, you will also realise that Fax and Leigh (subject to sponsorship/finances etc) are probably higher in the RFL's pecking order than Wakey!!
Is it fair?? Is it sheeite!!!! But that's the hand that we have dealt ourselves. The Wakey clubs BoD at the time voted this system in!!!
It's cobblers but in another 3 years time when you see your hopes dashed and another club from France get a SL instead of wakey, you will experience some of the same bitter fruit I've been chompin on for years!!
If it weren't for Fev I'd walk away from this bag o' crapola! But, like Al, I refuse to yeild!
