Correct Charlie

But the club is in such a mess its wanting people to buy now and not wait till Christmas.

Why should I put my house up because I was not part of this or any previous administration running the club. I would be surprised that with MC being an accountant if they do not have first call on any money should the worst happen.

You are also wrong about me I do have a season ticket and I am a member of the club draw. I have supported the club through all of it's previous problems but there is something different about this one, maybe it is the honesty of MC which tends towards the negative so I am in good company.

Personally I can't wait.



Season ticket ordered and I'm looking forward to another ride on the roller coaster. I'm pretty sure there are going to be lots of downs but if at the end of the season we are in 12th or above it will be one huge up.

Exactly. If you finish above 12th with all this adversity it may give you momentum to build a solid base from in 2015.

Next season it will be a mini league with us cas Bradford widnes London and maybe another team dragged in. I'm looking forward to this season more than ever games will now mean something

the above sums up my feelings. i have bought a ticket and i am a member of the lottery etc, but my interest and drive ends there. i have supported the club through thin and thin and had some good times on the way, but i am just about at the end of my patience.



i have lost interest in anything else the club does outside of match days and have developed other interests.



i know i am not alone in this, and i have more patience than many, but i am just not up for the fight this time.

Don't think MC can make it any clearer or honest.

We have sold 2 players.

We have a decent group of players at the moment. The Tuson money may bring in another 3 players.

Buying tickets for Christmas maybe too late.

If they are Christmas presents, what's stopping people buying them now?

13 home games for £150. Whether it's Championship standard or struggling Super League, it's still good value.

I get dicked off like everyone else when Trin lose and perform badly.

The times i've said i'm not going next week if they play that bad. But by the time the middle of the week comes round, the positives out of the previous performance have come to the fore and looking forward to the next game. False dawns, broken promises, players coming, players not, players leaving, it's all part of the show that is Trin.

I would rather have my back to the wall fighting as the massive underdog in Super League rather than turning up expecting to win more than we lose in the Championship.

Tell me what positive stuff you'd like to hear?

I think the point he is making is that you may be preaching to the converted on here?



Perhaps some positive news regarding what is being done to engage the missing supporters/ ST holders? , or what is being done to squeeze more out of sponsors etc.

Good post, exactly how I feel myself. The big problem now is the raised expectations of the fans. After years of struggle it looked like finally there was light at the end of the tunnel. After the meeting at Cedar Court, the franchise success and the promises from Glover and Elston that we would build a team over a few years that would challenge the top rather than bottom, to end up back to where we were at the start of 2011 is what a lot of people find hard to stomach. Although for now the squad looks competitive on paper and pledges of key players to stay and fight next season the reality is it simply is not in their hands.



With hindsight without the threat of relegation during the franchise period we should have slowly rebuilt ourselves rather than throw daft money and lengthy contracts on any player who was on the market and therefore have the full cap now we desperately need it. Steve Ferres when he was Castleford CEO was laughed at when he said that cheap/half price season tickets were the road to ruin but he has been proved right just looking at Bradford and now ourselves.



Most Wakefield teams over the last 25 years i've been going have obviously been made up of cast offs, old pros and up and coming players with a backs to the wall mentality, which the club, fans and players have thrived on. However as I said with the expectations being raised over the last two years now it's a lot more difficult for a lot of fans to buy back into it.

Stadium news

Exactly how I feel. I have been a fan for over 20 years and a long standing season ticket holder and subscribed to the lottery at the initial launch but I'm sick to death of the false dawns and mismanagement. I relies that the club need my money more than ever but I would like to know that the players will not be sold and the squad will be of a competitive nature. When will this sleeping giant awaken? I don't have the answer but my apathetic tone is a worry because WRLFC is in my blood and a lot of fans feel the same.
