Quote: milopolly "I wonder if a number of have 'defected 'to Cas' in search of glory.
There was always, in days gone by, the 'floaters' who would follow the more successful of the three clubs .
My Granddad was one in the 50's and 60's,changing in particular between Fev' and Trinity.'"
You will always get glory supporters, who may change their allegiance from time to time but, with our long standing trophy drought, most people "enjoy" supporting the "underdog" and ALL of us just keep hoping that the glory years of the 60's may one day return.
Back in the days of Bullmania, there used to be loads of people that lived in Wakefield but were Bulls "fans", some of these may have returned when things looked to be on the up (under Glover & Elston) but, they have since stopped coming.
It would be superb if we could have some on field success and maybe then, the sleeping giant may be woken and we might start to get some decent crowds again
