Maybe to do with the “classes” that Wakefield are coved by? Class 25 just seems to cover replica kit.
The list is no where near as comprehensive as the classes covered by a major football team and items for which they are covered. |

Is it just the badge that is registered or the actual name of the Club: "Wakefield Trinity"? Surely it wouldn't be the latter otherwise there would be a royalty to pay every time it appears in the media. |

The media aren't making money out of selling it.
Like when they report on Microsoft or Google. |

Seems to be some misunderstanding of what trademark protection does.
We are currently protected from anyone else trading under the name of wakefield Trinity in 3 classes. 25, 41 &43. It seems that the words rather than the logo are protected.
Would these signs be covered by class 25? I guess we'd have to test it in court.
Class 25
Clothing, footwear and headgear; replica sporting kit and sports clothing.

The BBC weren't making money out of The Kinks mentioning Coca-Cola (TM) in the song Lola but they changed it to cherry -cola so it could be aired on radio. |

Was this about trade marks or the BBC not using trade names. e.g. sticky-backed plastic on blue peter. |

Perhaps it was part of the BBC charter that decreed it wasn't allowed to advertise, then, rather than fearing breach of trademark usage, Coco. Hence "sticky back plastic" rather than Sellotape. |

The club would have a very strong case against products outside sportswear using the name via 'passing off' rules if they could show that people assumed the products were from the club.
This doesn't always work though. I remember Asda being allowed to sell puffin chocolate bars which were very similar to penguins but no-one was confused or thought they were penguins.
