There was a few more than that, i would guess it was 3-400. There were deffo more Wakey fans there last night than we took to saints IMO.

Nearer 500 than 100!!

I'll go with that, your shirts blended in well with blue seats so it was hard to judge.

I think around 400. Decent ground especially the new stand (opposite where the Wakey fans were)
Thought we were a bit quiet, although we also seemed spread out.
M62 on the way back was an absolute 'mare, stiill knackered.

In the Mold road (green king) stand opposite where the visiting fans were. Obviously there could have been fans in other parts of the ground. But that block would hold about 200 if full (which it wasn't) if there were 400 plus visiting and the stand behind the goal would have been used.

Not Crusaders fault about the journey although I do agree, left for work at 7.30a.m. and got in the house at 12.30a.m. Can't the RFL organise fixtures in a supporter friendly way i.e. Friday night kick off's againsd Warrnington/Saints. Another gripe, the matchday experience is not that cracking. We parked in Wrexham University's car park and went to the nearest turnstile which said £17 admission only to be told we needed to purchase a ticket first from the club shop (which has very little to but in it) but he couldn't tell us where this was. In the ground the catering facilities are poor, the only thing I could buy, as a veggie, was a packet of crisps!

Thought the crowd was ok bit dont't believe over 3000 were there.

Our ground may be outdated but with the owners in place I do believe the matchday experience is much better. Crusaders are a "new team" with lots to learn but I'm sure we will be dumped in the interests of expansion.

the place is a bit of a joke to get in though, was ticket only and only 1/10th full, got offered some kids tickets outside for a fiver (they give these away to school and college kids every week apparently, one kid had about 30 of em, nice bit of pocket money if he sold any) then when asking where to purchase tickets a steward/security guy at the clubhouse entrance told us he would take £20 and let us in without tickets another nice little earner...

Surely a better earner if you offer to let people in for less than the actual admission price?



Fair play then you were in a better place to judge than me. We watched the second half down the other end and there seemed to be a few Wakey fans scattered all over.


As a veggie what else do you normally get at a rugby ground? Chips? Peas? Hardly a wide range I would imagine!


You are the first person to question the crowd what makes you think there wasn't 3,000+ there? Very difficult to tell given we were all sat in the stand where the majority of supporters were and most Wakey fans stayed at one end for the whole game. We moved at half time and struggled to get a seat down the other end.

It's Crusaders so anything good that happens is either a lie or a result of some sort of dodgy activity that gives them an unfair advantage.

Perhaps someone should have a word with Glover and let him know there are franchise points available for vegetarian cuisine. Who knows, quorn burgers could add another thousand on the gate at Belle Vue.

Broccoli burgers it's the future...

Out of interest how does Belle Vue cater for vegetarians?

there's an allotment just down the road on sugar lane

To be fair I can only get chips, I don't ususally get them as it doesn't take 3 hours to get to the ground and I'm not hungry.. I know people on here are taking the mick with me but when you've not eaten since 1p.m. and have to go straight from work it would be nice to get something warm. I think there was a burger van outside the ground but as we arrived quite late we wanted to get straight in. Coffee was vey good by the way.
