| Quote: Kevs Head "This seems very simple to me.
The N Stand should be for Trinity fans only in order to maximise home advantage and minimise any possibility of trouble at this game. I don't care what it says or doesn't say on the tickets
It wouldn't be a reasonable request for the stewards to direct fans to an overcrowded terrace.
Not sure what the answer is. Wakey have to balance the potential risks of having both sets of fans behind the posts with those of overcrowding.
Maximising home advantage just doesn't come into it.

| On the run up to our previous games with you, since Northstand became predominantly the 'Home End', there has been a notice on our website notifying us to enter through the Western Terrace Turnstiles. Any Cas fans with mates supporting Wakey were allowed in the Northstand with them, the rest Western. Very simple, and as far as I could see it worked. Wheres the problem?? If it works for a local Derby against us it will work against Bradford. A lot being made out of nothing here I think

| what is it with Bradford fans? every other team has grasped the fact that the north stand is now a 'home stand' and every over team we have played over last 2 years have now stood in the western terrace

| If more tickets have been sold to Bradford fans than could be accommodated by the western terrace where would you propose to put those people?

| Or knock on a door on regent street where you can climb out the attic window and have a belting view of the game sat on the roof not the first time some one has watched the game from that roof.

| The lack of segregation is just a pitiful example of why some Wakefield fans have stopped supporting the club.
For the last 2/3 years we have ben told as home fans (regular customers) that we cant stand on the western terrace, that we cant enter through certain turnstiles, that we cant walk down certain parts of the ground etc, etc.
New rules come into force without any prior notice and many times for no obvious reason
I've followed the team sine 1981 and been a season ticket holder for the last 10 years so and contribute to the 1873, protested on the Town Hall steps, written to The Express etc,etc.
At the very time when the supporters would like some sensible segregation, to ensure that we can "enjoy" the game, our club are utterly useless.
I am totally ed off with the treatment that we are getting here and really, this is simply not good enough by the club and their professional stewarding company.
This simply would not happen at ANY other professional club.
WHEN will the club put its own supporters first and make attending Belle Vue an enjoyable day out for the fans.
The nonsense that happened with the fans at the last Bulls game would not have happened if the Bulls fans had been on the Western Terrace and when our 2 biggest rivals (Leeds and Cas) have adhered to the "new" segregation rules, why the hell aren't Bradford being told to do the same.
PLEASE Mr Carter & Co, sort this out before Saturday and help your customers enjoy the afternoon as far as possible

Can't argue with any of that.

| Agree with Wrencat. Ridiculous rules at some games then nothing at the one that really matters. Theres plenty of room for Bulls fans on Western Terrace, NW corner and Easr Paddock. NS for Trinity fans only. Bulls fans go where directed by stewards or leave the ground.

Couldn't agree more. Poor management by the club if they don't enforce this for Saturday

| As of today Bulls had sold less than 2000 tickets from Odsal,I'm sure there will be no need to flood the North Stand.

Saturday will come, there will be a crowd of 6.5/7k with approx 3.5/4k Wakey & 2.5/3k Bulls. You heard it hear first!

It will be impossible to say what the crowd split will be as many bulls fans have bought their tickets from Wakefield. The Wakefield online option has made it easier than queuing around the block at Odsal or not getting through to the Bulls ticket office.
