Now that another 2 players have gone (Poore and Aiton) and with the lack of regular or reliable updates,
the club may as well remove this feature from the website.

Although it's hard to argue with MC's need to balance the books, we are starting to look as though we are
selling fresh air.

Can we really expect any significant additional S/T' sales.

There will only be an upturn IF we start to announce some new players and can the resolve of the fans hold out until
this moment arrives

Itś very hard to be positive isn´t it. Unfortunately, the lack of season ticket sales were the catalyst for player offloading but ticket sales now most certainly suffer even more.

It was a mistake to put it on. All it has been is a stick to beat the club with whilst in reality it's showed the pathetic support this city has for its only professional (some would argue otherwise) sports club. The players leaving were never going to help but the fact is supporters had about 2 months of purchasing time before the grim reality revealed itself and balked at firstly paying £150 for a season ticket then £180. I doubt had things not gone close to pop Trinity would have more than 2500 season ticket holders and ultimately that is not enough to fund a SL team who doesn't have a rich owner.

how many have been sold so far? you can only really expect that number to dounle from now til the start of the season (considering most people who will want a season ticket will have either renewed or bought one early doors)

1600 and they haven't.

We'll be lucky to get 2K let alone 3K. I got mine 3 months ago but even as a supposed 'die-hard' i'd be thinking twice about getting one now, especially at over two hundred quid.

....and there is the problem right there.....the apathy of the people of Wakefield....one of the lads i work with spent £260 the last night out he had in Leeds....and people moan that £200 for a full season of the best sport on the planet is excessive....makes my blood boil...

1600 ticket sales to a population of around 325,000. It's not even half a percent! Is there really that much going on in Wakefield that 99.51% aren't interested in its only professional sports team?

Judging by the way things are going with ticket sales and player losses, it's time to get rid of the counter and contact Bob Geldof for a 'give us your money' appeal video to put in its place.

Wow. £260 on a night out must have meant a real enjoyable time was had! Whilst watching wakey next year....

Get shut of the counter and that stupid "together we are stronger" line. That peed me off even when things looked rosy!

Also! All those that have "had enough"; If you have, then go away and stop this slow bleeding to death all over this messageboard. When I've "had enough" I'll log off and find something else to do!

...it's a city of blame......blame the council......blame their employers......blame Thatcher......blame Glover......blame Ted......blame Elston......plenty of blame, complaining & negativity......however not quite willing to go out & do something about it......and I'm not just talking abut Trin.

However......plenty of money for booze & fags........oh.......and the odd Greggs.

Next up for the blame...........MC?

Never known a city with such a chip on it's shoulder.

So if your bank collapsed who would you blame?

Perhaps the Lord himself!!

you're right in what you say Mary, though I aren't sure it applies. After all, the supporters of WTW are the ones who have repeatedly been taken for a ride.

your love for your club, it would seem, isn't reciprocated - and that must be heartbreaking.

So I would fully support and understand that fans are trying to lay the blame, and need to be able to lay the blame for people to keep faithfully handing over their hard-earned. After all, the smoke screen the club has billowed for years still hasn't blown over - I've no idea who is culpable and I doubt anyone else has.

This latest set-back stunned/shocked/appalled me really. You guys have twice the number of paying supporters you had 5-10 years ago, and it would appear this increased revenue for the club has been frittered away as frivellously as ever.

The club seemed to have everything in place this year to really push on, after getting into the play-offs in 2012. But alas two steps forward have resulted in three back.

bloody thatcher eh.

why should the fact that other people spend money on a night out make your blood boil? perhaps you need to calm down?

I think it's the principle mate, how people can frivellously spend £260 on the pop, but are incredibly tight with it about their rugby club....

I get it, although "blood boiling" is maybe a bit OTT
