That's a fair point, will certainly bring this matter up and try to accommodate you

WE ARE WAKEFIELD, WITHOUT THE RICHARDSONS’ WE ARE STRONGER:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42850.jpg



Quote: Davide Longo "The issues are between home and away fans. If the problems escalate then we will lose more fans through not feeling safe in our stadium. I can't understand why fans are feeling so aggrieved, we are just saying that fans need to watch the game from a different position thats all'"


Doesn't affect me Davide as I have always stood behind the posts in the North Stand and will continue to do so. If people are intent on causing aggro with opposition fans, they will do so outside the ground, so segregation will not stop that problem. The other issues could equally lead to complaints by Wakefield fans. Hence my comment about trying to deal with the offenders to eradicate the problems.

I am not being critical of the club here, I know this is not an easy issue to deal with and that various other parties have been consulted, just stating my opinion

Quote: Davide Longo "The turnstiles are not in operation due to a managerial problem. I will look into this and try to rectify the issue. You are permitted to watch the game on the Eastern Paddock or Seated East Stand'"


I'm afraid to walk to those areas is even further from St catherine Street.
After all these years I feel i will have to accept that this will be my last year of support.

If this policy had been announced at the start of the season I would not have bought a season ticket and will not be renewing. Match day experience totally ruined.
Thanks for reply.
Thought we were trying to get them in? Not force them out!

Again a fair point, we are responsible for the entire footprint of our stadium so we will increase stewarding on the exits too. Your right and in principle we will isolate the offenders and ban them but this takes time. Can i point out that I have not received a single complaint about any such behaviour against Hull FC. This is a credit to both sets of supporters

Quote: Davide Longo "I have just said that the western terrace toilets will be used by both sets of fans. A 60m walk to the toilets isn't unreasonable but each to their own on this topic'"

Its further than 60m but anyway thats not the point. I understand why this has to be done but make sure the stewards let people through to them next time because they weren't doing. It is one of those things that put people off coming back and i'm pretty sure the club doesn't need that. Communication is key!

Attending sports fixtures is all about routine and tradition. If you have always watched the same event from the same place, then it feels alien to watch it from somewhere else, and if you feel it is part of your matchday routine, then things aren't the same. Human nature.

As I've said, I'm not saying the club were necessarily wrong, but my match day experience is significantly lessened. That's just how it is.

I would disagree with this point, that might be your experience and you are entitled to it but its not everyones. My opinion would be going to watch a game of rugby league, feeling safe and experiencing a positive atmosphere. My experience was lessoned at the Castleford game due to drunken fans, swearing and people throwing missiles.

D avide - I know exceptions can be the thin edge of the wedge but are you really happy with the club being unable to accommodate a supporter of 60 years with failing eyesight?

Quote: Davide Longo "Firstly, can I start with an apology to all fans for the lack of communication regarding this matter. With the recent events such as Eric France and the postponement of the Leeds fixture, the statement that should've gone out was overlooked. The change in our crowd policy was due to be enforced at the Leeds game, therefore with the postponement it wasn't issued.



Davide'"


Not having go on this but the game was called off twice both at fairly short notice to kick off but no statement was ever issued,I don't think there was ever any intention to inform us about the segregation at all! You had all week prior to that to do so.

That was bought on by yourselves and the go north farce from last years game against Cas which raised tensions between supporters. No segregation at the battle of belle vue with 11k packed in.
