For the Leeds game you had 1,000 LESS fans than in 2010 and for the Warrington match you had 500 LESS which for a club like Wakefield is a huge percentage. Admitedly you did well with Quins and Salford.
But £20 per ticket is a bit steep no wonder crowds are put off. £20 to stand on a step - £20 which I will be paying tomorrow mind you.

| 20 pound well spent to be close to the action and have open terrace on a sunny day ( not so good on a rainy day mind you)

The Leeds and Warrington attendances aren't that bad when you consider the fact with the squad we have and the -4 points start everyone expected us to struggle to get to 0 points and to get battered by these types of teams

| Quote ="vastman"Honest to god for such a big successful club you really have an inferiority complex.
Kears aim is to tell it as he sees it and if it upsets so be it. Is it personal, probably and so what, maybe you should be a little less precious.
One thing I'm absolutely certain about is that it had absolutely nothing to do with last years wins over us. I also doubt a single Wigan player ever gave it a second thought.
In fact if there is one Coach who is good at using negative comments to his own benefit it's Kear. But then Kear hasn't got a team of internationals so maybe you'd expect it to be of more use in those circumstances. If you lot are going to cry like babies because of a few Kear unflattering comments then I'm glad you don't support Wakey else you'd be suicidal, the amount of crass ill founded abuse we have to take. Come on, get over it and enjoy the game.'"
Kear has proven himself as a good coach in the past of course. But to make comments as he has comes across as being bitter. I don't think that reflects well on him as a professional sports coach, do you? To claim that his team getting stuffed by a Wigan team playing with flair and aggression was like watching paint dry just sounds ridiculous coming from the head coach of a professional sports team, doesn't it?

| Wakefield's crowds are up almost 9% ahead of tomorrow which ever way you look at it. But personally got to be honest, nothing against the club or supporters, but it is a terrible ground to visit and I won't miss it one bit. The ground and it's poor facilities should have been condemned years ago and I've no sympathy because Widnes have had their ground up to scratch for about 13 years now. Their isn't even anything outside the ground at Wakefield anymore and the fact you have to walk through a cemetery to reach it, perhaps sums the place up as a visiting supporter..

That would actually explain quite a lot.

It's no good if he has forgotten it, though.

To be fair to Wakefield though the toilets have improved! I remember going there a few years back and the toilet was a brick wall, with guttering on the floor with a hole in to drain the p!ss
