| Quote: Micka "It's not very often I post on the forum, However I've had enough of the continual trauma that is Wakefield Trinity Wildcats.
We never advance, it's the same almost every year a roller coaster ride of mainly lows, player unrest, a shop where the manager would have been sacked years ago if his Dad had not been in charge.
As a share holder, I have not been notified of meetings.
Yet again we have nose dived from a promising start to the season.
We are expected to support our club blindly, never given an explanation of the deals that are done, it's always " an undisclosed ammount "
It seems that our club is restrained from ever taking the next step up, and always seem to take the cheap option, that situation rests with TED !!!, who I feel is not really bothered about success.
The last two home games I witnessed were diabolical, a win against a pathetic Salford side, and a no show against a poor Crusaders side, in both those we lacked any real attacking ideas, a good side would have beaten both of us those days.
So I've come to the agonising decision to stop spending my hard earned money going to the games until, instead of me being told to be patient, and wait for something to happen, I will wait until I see some positive moves by the club to rectify the position.
As much as I detest the goings on at Wigan over the years, with blatant infringements of the rules etc, one thing you can say about Wigan is that the board did whatever it took to bring success to the club.
I will always consider Wakefield close to my heart, after 52 years enough is enough. ![]()
so you have followed wakey for half a century and Saturday was you lowest point of all

Wakey are an example of a club punching above there weight and playing some decent rugby. Yes you are in a slight blip at the moment.
Get to the Stoop. Before Sat we had won 2 in 25!! Sat at the bottom of the league

Were the unthinkable happen and the club fold I would watch some other team that I had some sort of affiliation with, in my case Eastmoor, having spent my early years there.
Never would I join the ranks of what I call "Glory Supporters" and switch to the likes of L***s.
Having said that I do believe that We and Cas will share a ground at New market.'"
Some change of heart. |

frustrating times for the fans, but also for John and the staff, I have had mixed feelings, yes paying £20 is a lot of money for a poor performance, maybe £15 is a better entrance fee, would we get more coming in ?, possibly. We do need a few more quality players but we do not have the money, the gates play a big part in how much we can spend so how do we get more in ?, maybe someone from x factor every home match may help !!, I just feel that we have to ride the storm and hope the results will come, but, as a realist, I believe we only look like 8th or 9th place material. Lets hope the players dig deep in the next few weeks and bounce back, the fans, John and the staff deserve it.

The gate price of £20 seems to be the biggest problem when I try and get new people to come to the games. I never think about it because I've had a season ticket for the last 6 or 7 years but £20 is a lot. Add a couple of kids to the mix and you're looking at a lot of money for a family of 4. £60 is it?! |

And you know full well they can afford to operate like that, we can't. I agree the clubs getting wrong and it won't help us in the long run but whats the answer.
Most Wakey (so called) fans spend more than that on a fri/sat/sunday on the old beer in the pubs, claiming to be Wakey fans. would they come if it was £15, NO they would not IMO. |

Your ground could do with a coat of paint as well, hope it will not take long to dry. |

Chunky Steak a couple weeks ago was very nice, pot of tea and entrance fee. All for less than it cost to get in at Wakey  |
