| For me the cat doesn't mean much, neither does the nickname. But we only ever talk about it when the team is doing badly or we have financial issues.
That means to me, it isn't so bad, just a target when needed.
Ronnie and Bullman are just as good/bad but are associated with success. If we were better on the field everyone would love the mascot.
I've seen plenty saying how great it is when we do well. The Liam Kaye Cas game springs to mind.

The character is good fun, the name is terrible, as it was in 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2012 (for seven games at least). I think this has all stemmed from a poster saying he would get rid of the name Trinity to move with the times.

| Even sadder than I realised it could ever be. It is very hard now to see how Wakefield can survive at all.
Save for a madman/woman with believes in miracles, and has money to burn, it is possible that we are seeing the
beginning of the end now. R.I.P. ?

| Quote: M62 J30 TRINITY "If we had kept up being a top club like we were in the 60s we would still be one of the biggest clubs in the game. Sadly we have shown no ambition on and off the field for 50 years and run like a small town club with no ambition. No other SL club has had the lack of success we have had for the last 50 years. I have no worries about our support if we had a team that could compete every week in a stadium fit for purpose our attendances would be the higher end of the league. If we'd have had the sustained success St Helens have had we would be getting better crowds than them in my opinion. As a club they should be doing better at representing the City of Wakefield and should have been for the last 50 years.'"
Absolutely correct. I started going aged 8 in 1971. There was a level of expectancy that stayed with the club for maybe 10 years but a series of administrations that were completely incompetent and showed no foresight has destroyed us. Only David Garthwaite had any vision when he wanted to move us out of Belle Vue to a new stadium around 1980. As I recall, it was the fans who rejected that. If only we had listened. From sacking Ray Batten's assistant Alan Hardisty when we had nearly won the championship, to consistently overspending on many a player not worth it and many other dreadful decisions, w have limped along till we have gone off the radar of many people. I would say that if we had a decent ground and team and with the away support that often seems to come to a game with a competitive Trinity, we could expect gates on which we could compete, but it's not gonna happen with this rubbish being churned out. It is very sad. The name Wakefield Trinity is synonymous with the game and to see it on it's knees makes my heart heavy

| Quote: M62 J30 TRINITY "Imagine the support and potential corporate support if we had a good team and a good stadium. Think that's why some fans & officials of some small town clubs are desperate for our new stadium to fail, offering support to opposition groups and the like. We are the world famous Wakefield Trinity one day we will return to our 60s domination.
TRINITY FOREVER'"
Absolutely. WMDC have been about as passive as they could get away with and we all know Box's allegiances. It has been glaringly obvious to me that there is no political will for Trinity to have a new ground but you can bet your last quid that Castleford will be well backed by the same authority

| Worst thing that ever happened to the CITY of Wakefield was being amalgamated with surrounding districts and then being swamped by them.
And yes , Charlie63 we all know the real reason for the reluctance of our abhorrent council to get behind a team the CITY was once proud of!
