It will be an even sillier tweet if you fail to turn up in numbers as he's intimated

Agree on both counts. Was surprised to see it from him, all for a bit of banter between fans but think those at the top of the clubs should be respectful of fellow clubs and their supporters.

How do you know that Ali and Danny have no pride have you asked them or is it just your personal opinion .As for Lynne he showed his pride and how much he cared when he gave up the chase on Rangi with 45 mtrs to the line and im'e sure all of the team was devastated with the result on Sunday not just Scrutes.

To be fair Carter is relatively complimentary towards other clubs, he saves his digs for his own clubs supporters.

I believe he's still on holiday in Ibiza so might well have been in the Sangria early! But I expect it will be one of your biggest crowds of the year, Bulls fans have travelled well this year. Wouldn't be surprised to see a 60/40 split in Wakefields favour on Sat.

He's since apologised if any offence was caused:

@marcngreen: It seems comment about crowd at WW has caused upset no offence meant just assumed you'd prefer crowd from 1 of best supported teams in comp

@marcngreen: Comment earlier only to emphasise pride I have in the brilliant supporters who've broken records #everywherewego this season

Can't wait, should be a cracker!

We have a second chance if we do not take it then we deserve to be relegated. We were lucky and I suppose it is now understandable why Carter voted for the change, he probably had an idea that the squad was not good enough or large enough when the season started.
To avoid the play off game or automatic relegation we must look to beat all the championship clubs plus Widnes. I am not saying we will, in fact this season suggests we won't but losing to Salford means this is the minimum we will probably need.

wonder how the football will have an impact on the attendance , Bradford city sold 17k season tickets and there first home game is this Saturday. will probably have a effect on Bradford fans coming to belle vue?

He has nothing to apologise for!

If anything however, he should get sanctioned for not realising what a touchy bunch the Wakefield supporters are.

A complete non-event being taken completely OTT.

Well the comment was clearly tongue in cheek, it's only hit a nerve because there is an element of truth in what he said.

But I'd rather he didn't provoke the opposition before we've played them in a crucial game.

Completely agree.

What is there to get upset about?? Bradford have more fans than us and will bring a few on Saturday. So what??

There are plenty of ready made excuses for those who don't turn up on Saturday but, for the apathetic fans who follow RL but, the main one will be the fact that it's on TV and the average "floating" Wakey supporter has longer pockets than the most stereo typical tight fisted Yorkshire man that anyone knows.

The pubs and clubs will be packed to the rafters but it would be a major surprise if we get more than 4000 folk in BV on Saturday, especially as it is only the most important game in Wakefields history.

Wakefield simply have to win this one or, we will very likely be relegated.

So, forget your excuses and splash out the 20 or 22 quid and get down to BV.
It will be a cracker of a game, with plenty on it for both clubs and a few extra vocal fans, just might make the difference.

Don't find an excuse not to go, find a reason to be there !

I've booked the day off to be able to go. We deffo need a decent Wakey following to do our bit.
Hope the boys do thier bit too!

I agree. It's really irritating when the guy from Bradford or Huddersfield fans or even Salford fans poke fun at our crowd numbers.
Now is the time to be able to answer them back. We need to show a packed house on prime (ish) time TV.

If anyone thinks that Wakey fans will outnumber the Bradford fans, it won't happen. Some of the die hards have been driven away by the attitude of the club, and the casuals probably don't care. The long term damage was inflicted when MC took too long to sack Agar and then Webster.
