In that case you won’t be disappointed, but I wouldn’t expect much more, perhaps you may need to invest in a umbrella.

Email from the club beginsIn preparation for work commencing on the East Stand, Wakefield Trinity are making important changes to our matchday procedures, effective immediately."

Well, rain is forecast for this afternoon, and knowing our luck it will rain on our home match days, particularly start of next season in winter months. I just thought a cover, a type of canvas over the seats, similar to the London Bs had at Trailfinders stadium. I can remember when HKR had open air seating for the away fans before the new stand was built, it always seemed to rain there when we played.

Look on the bright side, many supporters will be getting a free wrist band as a match souvenir

It'll be all Carters fault.

And that lucky wristband is staying in place until it looses it's magic.

No queues getting in , but a long queue to get an arm band.

Are these wristbands been handed out next week too?

I would certainly think so with the barriers in place and work already started for instance the frame for the big screen has been removed and thus impacted the area around it.

Can any one on here who used the North Stand v Hull, give an update on how things went using the new routine. I didn’t think there was 1500 in the NS. The Attendance was given at just under 4,500, I would imagine about 400, away fans on Western terrace. Did anyone explain to you why the wrist band is necessary?

The west terrace was full, easily 1500.

The North terrace was not terrible, it seemed more than 1500 to me but if that’s what they say.

So that’s 3,000. I can only assume the other 1500 were in the east stand and terrace and the boxes.

Required for entry into the North Stand.
It was policed as well - no wristband on - no entry!

I think it represents the maximum number of supporters allowed in the North Stand which was probably not set by the club hence their eagerness to comply with this restriction.
