That's as ott as the original post! Their wooden stand should have gone when ours did, It's in a sorry state. The back of the long stand is undermined and collapsed. The floodlighting is still dangerous, including the stansions. The bogs are a mess. The entrance and exits are in poor nick......
But, for all that, it's a grand place to enjoy a game with a real atmosphere, real people and RL people. Much as we need to move on, we will miss these old grounds when they are gone for good.

| I'm sure we will miss em. I was talking about York in the context that they moved out of town and to a ground that was unsuitable for RL and lost a lot of support through doing so. When they were at Clarence Road they were reasonably successful.

| When I win the euro millions and build a new stadium for Wakefield it'll be curious to see if these so called stay away fans turn up or just using it as an excuse, I guess we'll never know eh

| Quote: Eastern Wildcat "I would agree on there Bentleberry.
A lot of clubs revenue comes from boxes etc.
Ours is based in the Benidorm flats and whilst isnt the most plush of venues, it serves its purpose. To be honest, in seeing The Jungle in its current state, it is hard to see where they hold their hospitality.
As for trophies, what are we calling a major trophy. We were last winners of the Yorkshire Cup and apart from 1986, I think you are looking at the 60s for last Challenge Cup win. On top of that, we were talking basement clubs a few days ago. They have finished bottom more than once.
In view of the above, while 3 seasons in a row they have finished above us, we had finished above them for I think 10 seasons, so I dont think they are neccessarily better than us.'"
Regal Trophy, 92 I think
If your calling the Yorkshire cup a "major " trophy,then I think the Regal Cup trumps it because it involved teams from Lancashire.
Don't know when you won the Yorkshire cup though.

| From what it would appear, Wakefield Trinity has no professional business/management/promotion/advertising structures. While ever there is no investment in this area we will continue to flounder. An earlier poster commented that news and views about the club are only relayed through social media or local radio. When someone from the club is offered a spot on Radio Yorkshire or Leeds, I wonder how many of our non trinity supporters are tuning in as well as the diehard fan - not many I'm sure !!
The club, apart from the Community team, have little or no interaction with the city. Whilst this prevails, growth and interest in the club will always be held back and reined in. A sad reflection of this was the fact that as the season ended and until only recently, anyone entering the club shop would have thought they were entering a third rate charity shop under development. I know people may say that the club was awaiting new merchandise but surely proper business plans would have prevented this revenue inactivity from taking place
Maybe the slow movement of progress regarding the clubs home is partly because potential investors, whether they are sponsors, council or developers, see a business organisation that oozez little professionalism.
I must say the interest from the Castleford public toward their local team is much to be admired - lots of lessons could be learnt I'm sure.

Go in the shop now it's full of class merchandise best we've ever had, it was a total rebrand this year so bound to be a cross over. cas have had a top 6 side and a Wembley appearance in the last 3 years with a new stadium on the way that's the difference.

| That is the whole point - there shouldn't be a 'crossover'.
And I'm afraid on a 'like for like' basis Cas seem to be miles ahead of us.
