Only under the new stand, elsewhere it will be cold wed and windy, especially if you are from Huddersfield/Sheffield icon_biggrin.gif

Quote: wakeytrin "Do you also complain at Castleford, Leeds, Bradford and Hull KR!'"

Cas is 3 sides covered.

Yes we do complain about the pother three as i have got soaked at all 3 of them in the past.

You do realise that modern day fans often who take their kids to away games may avoid certain grounds due to such things as no seating, high prices and whether the stands are covered if the weather is bad icon_confused.gif:

It is good though that you are covering the stands and i hope you get a new ground soon then instead of me coming along by myself i will enjoy taking the kids.
I enjoy trips to wakey and all the banter and cannot wait until the kids can enjoy it as well.

It's a wonder there are any of us alive and well enough to post on here at all, having endured the harrowing physical and mental torture of being taken to games by our dads in the middle of winter, and forced to stand on uncovered terraces in the wind, rain and snow. I don't know how I made it through myself. I'm just glad the kids of today aren't as unfortunate as we were... icon_rolleyes.gif

You have never brought 1200/1500 to our place !! lets see how many Giants fans turn up on Sunday ?? Anyone care to bet me it will be under 100 ?? Should be loads of you as the general wakey opinion is 10 to 30 which is ridiculous !!

My bet is 100 + fans and Huddersfield to win any takers ??

Behave! I beleive it was 2007 or 2008 when we made a cracking start to the season, we sold out the then Pink Link stand on a Friday night. I remember the stewards having to remove the pink link signs at either side of the stand that covered the seats so we could all sit down.

We did get stuffed that night, but hey there were plenty of us there!

It'll be interesting to see how said tin roof will raise the libraryesque noise levels, cant wait for the north bank to be done!

Indeed - I can only assume that a) it doesn't rain in Huddersfield and b) their children are made of sugar.

Quote: cdc "what i cant understand is if glover is that confident off newmarket happing in next couple off years why waist money on a run down bell vue ground why not spend this extra money on a failing team sure wakefield fans would rather have a decent team then a cheap looking tin roof thats still looks no better then dewsbury
tin roof does any body else agree'"

We've made a promise to the RFL and following our previously poor record at keeping said promises, we are trying to make a good impression.
On top of this its a win win situation, if god forbid NM doesn't happen we have started to re develop BV, if or when NM does happen, we can take them with us i believe and add to the other pitch, perhaps making it an attractive proposition for another local sports club wishing to make NM its home or to greatly add to our training/reserve set up.
So in answer to your question, NO, i don't think anyone does agree.
I hope this puts an end to your concerns for us? we are in good hands and are doing just fine thanks!!

Frankly that stand, if the finished article, looks to be a waste of time/space/money in terms of the protection it offers and the number of people it will accomodate. And I don't for one second blame Wakey, but the RFL for creating a situation where a club feels compelled to expend precious resources on what might be called a purely cosmetic exercise if it even added aesthetic value.
