We might want to retain the wildcats for marketing purposes but if we want to rebuild the brand and the link with the city then the fleur de lys should be on there as well. People have referred ro the the wigan shirt which has the town coat of arms. Don't know offhand which othe clubs have them but it would be good to re-establish Wakefield as a rugby league town

Sorry Snowie - I was so busy trying to decipher your post I didn't actually notice the fleur de lys on your avatar.

Quality of the production and material must be improved also. Was bought this years home shirt for christmas, a design which i dont mind tbh. Within a couple of hours of wearing it boxing day it allready had a couple of pulls in it. Home shirt white with blue and red hoops, away same as this years home please. Anybody know if macron will be making again next year?.

I'm lead to believe that what Snowie said is correct regarding the new emblem being on the next shirt, which is a good move.

Also the club have heard all the comments regarding quality, a wider variety of sizes, greater level of choice etc.

Expect better from our merchandising in the future.

would love to go back to the white shirts with blue and red hoops but to those of us of a more portly persuasion they are not very complimentary

Ditch the cat off the shirt says nothing to me about my town !

It might not say anything to you but thats the symbol the kids recognise mate as much as id love just the original badge i think the cat is here to stay for some time.

Just watched the Wakey V Fev game for a place in SL and have to say i like this shirt. Could easily put on the wildcat logo

Too true.

I was dropping my son of at school the a few weeks ago and had a Trinity T-shirt on with the Wildcat logo. This was just after Daddy Cool had been into school getting them ready for the big dance class thing against Hull.
All the kids were flocking around pointing at the Wildcat on my T-shirt and getting very excited about "Daddy Cool". The Wildcats thing is definitely a good marketing tool as far as kids are concerned and must stay, BUT the word TRINITY is equally as important and must not be dropped either.

Having started this thread it's pleasing to see that many agree with my thoughts and see the resurrection of the famous shirt as a direct link, not just with the past but aspirations for the future.
I'm sure it wouldn't be simply plain white with red and blue bands the inevitable insignia would have to be on but the shirts would be instantly recognisable as Wakefield Trinity.
Here's hoping.......

My son who is 21 months old sees the Wildcats badge on any shirt and says "Whats that?" so you say to him "Wildcats" so he roars like a wildcat....kids of any age identify with the Wildcats badge aslong at it says Wakefield Trinity underneath I think the new badge is a good compromise...

Hope we keep micron as kit supplier for next season training gear is the best we have had and kit design is good. Traditional style home kit for next season and experiment with the away kit

The problem is the media forget to say or print the word TRINITY and 99 % time its dropped completely...its our heritage go out of the heartlands and no one knows who the hell Wildcats are say Trinity and its a different story.

I am not saying get rid completely i agree for marketing and kids, Daddy Cool etc its a no brainer im talking about on the shirt it should be your town crest..

Keep Wildats as the nickname, I hate the name but it looks like we're stuck with it, but insist the clubs name as reported in the media is Wakefield Trinity. Also produce more stuff with the original badge. This way the club can target both Trinity fans and Wildcat fans without disregarding either group.

Correct.

We are Wakefield Trinity. Our nickname (artificial as it is) is "The Wildcats". Put the city coat of arms on one side of the shirt at the front with the cartoon cat and "The Wildcats" on the other side. We could even be cheeky and use the motto of the [iDistrict[/i - "Persevere and Prosper" seems especially apt for us! We should always be referred to officially as "Trinity" with "Wildcats" being used as the nickname (Like Arsenal are the Gunners but not "Arsenal Gunners"icon_wink.gif. That way we capitalise on the the link with the city, suggest that we are also the club for the whole district(!!!) and can still use Daddy Cool and all the wildcats stuff for marketing. Simples!
