Super know it all response by gob e vastman.
I don't detest wakey fans but you....I wouldn't urinate on you if you was on fire.

I don't eat at grounds because it's mostly pre processed cardboard derivative... I don't drink at the grounds because ... well I'm usually driving and I don't drink alcohol when I'm driving.
I actually think Belle Vue is a great venue to watch rugby ... there are some great vantage points and you are close to the action... I used to love watching midweek A team games.... mostly from high up behind the posts.
I will be sad as sad can be when Belle Vue closes its doors for the last time the place has held a special place in my life!
I hope to get one last chance to visit the old girl when I am in Wakey for a few days in June!'"
Phew, good save. |

| Quote: Khlav Kalash "We've had 10k at BV as recently as 2013. It was as much as a craphole then as it is now. Let's face it Trinity just ain't that popular in the city to regularly draw a decent crowd. Good performances/results will naturally help improve crowds but ultimately as a club we don't do much to entice latent or new support
We might as well not exist beyond the 4k or so who do bother going to games.'"
The people of Wakefield must be the most apathetic in the country when it comes to supporting local sport. |

On the question of crowds, what efforts have been made to attract people to attend matches?
In the past i recall under the Glover era TV adverts
And probably further back under ted "Diversity" dance group attracted a lot of people
Wakefields got talent competition in cats bar after home games.
Ladies day , where i think women got free entry ?
Do we still have the trailers on roadsides any more?
Even in the club shop (the last time i was in) had nothing visible to show when the next match was.
I know money is tight and things like TV advertising is out of the question but there are some things which can be done very cheaply.
Personall i think getting people to attend their first match is vital , then hopefully keep them coming back.

I don't think intelligence is in their dictionary so we must cut them some slack
