| I thank MC for all his hard work and to say he’s a hull guy his effort for Trinity has been immense.
I believe he said at the beginning of his stint with us he would do 10 years.
It probably is the right time for a change for him and the club but some of the comments about him on here and social media have been disgusting. I’d have walked years ago.

| I honestly believe there would be a supermarket stood where the ground is today without his astute intervention and the master stroke of buying the ground back . It’s a wonder he has any hair left after all the stresses and strains of getting the money for the upgrades against all the odds ,obviously with Minards at his side . I hope I’m wrong but I have yet to see these money men that have waited in the wings as long ago as when Ted was in charge and still to step out of the shadows. He may not be perfect but he certainly has to be credited for keeping our heads above water over the years ,and whilst not getting the fighting force on the field we all crave for , the stability off it is a real blessing . Good look for the future MC you deserve a well earned break .

| The failure to engage the wider general public in Wakefield to come and attend games has been very disappointing for me. Clearly whatever I have attempted has failed and we have never been able to match the average 6300 fans needed to enable us to spend up to the salary cap.
If Trinity had the relative success of Salford over the last couple of years the crowd would be 6k

| Thanks for everything, Michael. We may not have had much to celebrate over the last ten years, but at least you kept the Club going, and your legacy is there for all to see and further developing everyday.

The crowd would easily rose above 6.3k with a successful season or two. It’s having the money to lay out at the start.
There’s some good potential at trinity but reaching it will not be an easy or cheap task.

| I agree the people of Wakefield are the same as the people anywhere else give us a good team to watch and the crowds will grow ,your not going to increase the support fighting relegation every year its depressing and draining.

Not even when we had some success the crowds didn't go up that much.
Stadium may tip that balance.

| Not really success though was it ,Wakefield trinity supporters have been starved of any real success since the 1960s and in reality outside of diehard supporters irrelevant to most people in Wakefield.

| If your only measure of success is us winning 3 challenge cups and 2 league championships then no we are never going to get a crowd.
But other teams manage it without that success.
For me, we will lift our crowd slightly with a decent mid table finish but I don't think it would go higher even with a run in playoffs till the facilities are better.
Facilities getting better will mean more people will come with success.

And the minute the guy bankrolling that team died the slump really began.
