| My concern with this policy is that it will potentially put away fans off if the weather is inclement and they face the prospect of paying 20 odd quid and getting wet through.
We need to ensure that we don't make it unattractive for away fans as we need all the revenue we can get

| Which part of the ground is the west terrace?
It was an issue last season when we (Saints) visited last season, wasn't the best experience I've ever had at a RL ground.

Yes i recall some "altercations" v saints in the north stand last year.I would like to think it was the excitement of a last second drop goal.
The western terrace is to the right hand side if looking from the north stand,(doncaster road).

Just some idiots that cannot fathom mixed terracing, nothing major, but it was not pleasant.
Although, I don't see what difference it makes explicitly segregating a ground that you can walk around? Instead of standing with your lot behind the sticks, we'll just be stood with your lot on the side instead?

No, As per the club website, they (the club) wont be stopping home fans standing on the western terrace, however, they do advise that they watch the game for another vantage point within the ground.

There is no explicit segregation at Cas, is there not? As an away fan I've stood on the side for cover and both ends when swapping at HT?

| I've always thoroughly enjoyed standing in the West stand. I tried the North stand like most just to sample the atmosphere, but didn't particularily enjoy it. I understand what the club are trying to do, by creating an atmosphere under the North stand but it will be a logistical nightmare.
We've 2 years at BV before moving to NM why over complicate matters and make the stewards job even harder. The West stand accomodates 1,800, so what happens when Leeds, Cas or the Hull sides visit? What happens if say 500-800 Wakefield fans remain in the West Stand?
It seems a poorly thought out idea which has been pushed through. The idea behind it may be in the fans interest but it just isn't plausable.
I'll be remaining in the West stand as i'm sure will alot of Wakefield fans.
