Disappointing today. After 4 wins on the bounce now join us next week and just watch it afterwards on telly. You know it makes sense.

What was it announced as - looked about 4.5k
To me?

4300 plus

Yeah well we are talking about the Wakefield public aren't we!
We still have the faithful 4k and I don't think that will alter until we get a good winning run

Don't worry about the attendance the owners aren't, they do nothing to attract new support.
Home games against cats, hud, and Salford should be targeted to attract more people.
Like I have said before our home games are all based on the Faithfull 4000 to 4500.

Yeah I mean you’re a fantastic advertisement for the club aren’t you. You really are a bore at times.

IF we get to the Cup Final we'll suddenly have 25k supporters all swearing blind they haven't missed a game for years.

Thought it was a decent gate tbh, Salford are hardly a draw card.

Let’s see what the Cas game brings.

Nothing beats a winning team in bringing in the crowds. Think the owners are doing pretty well on that front.

Waiting to see what the crowd is for the Wigan game . Let's get down and help the team get to the S F forget the TV you can watch that later from a different view. Just 15 £ to watch Wakefield in one of the biggest C C games we have had for years

It was an ok attendance, bit disappointing but we have had far worse in recent seasons.

What like all the junior tickets given out when we played Toulouse

Perhaps you have your own ideas on what it needs to bring out these closet fans should make interesting reading, to be fair to Cas fans they always turn out in decent numbers at BV, don't really see your point regarding targeting the shudds and Salford home games when they can't even be bothered to get off they're backsides to watch their own home games never mind the away ones so good luck with that one.

Yeah, reckon there was only around 300 Salford fans there today but reckon Wigan will bring a couple of thousand and then Cas maybe 3-4000 ??

I'm not talking about increasing the away support, get new home support interested with insentives for the games when traveling supports low.

This is the same poster who three days ago stated he thought Lino was going to Wigan. He doesn’t see the contradiction between spreading BS nonsense like that and then claiming the ‘owners’ don’t do enough.

The hypocrisy of some supporters baffles me. Trinity fans need to realise that many of them are the clubs worst enemy when it comes to promoting the club. There negativity undermines everything others work so hard to achieve.

Annoys the hell out of me.

See RWB's post above

But that stuff never works and never has.

There are only two ways to increase the fan base. Better results and better facilities. The rest is Glover style window dressing that bankrupts clubs.

It’s very simple, if people won’t pay the going rate they are not worth the efforts for the simple reason that they end up costing us money. You can’t buy support, ask Ken Davey.

The only exception is kids and the club do that.

Course it was under the present circumstances, the clubs making progress on and off the field despite all this financial uncertainty in the country, a lot of people will have far more important things to spend their hard earned on if there lucky, Salford aren't exactly a top drawer either, success will have to be earned and patience will be needed and hopefully rewarded, after what we've been through this last couple of seasons we should be grateful we are still here.

Wasn’t like that in 79… still a small hard core of about 3k

Vasty get things right.
I did not say Lino was off to Wigan, I said I could see him imn a Wigan shirt.
What's the stuff that never works, are you referring to the mail shot.
IF YOU DON'T TRY YOU NEVER KNOW,

True but we sold all our final tickets I believe. Depend when the bandwagon jumpers get on board.

I'm sure there are people in Wakefield who want to watch Trinity (remember the crowds some years ago when probably thousands were getting in for nothing or very little) but they are the ones who will only come back and pay full price to watch a successful Trinity.
I thought the crowd yesterday was what I expected it to be.
I expect a couple of thousand more against the likes of Wigan and Cas.

In terms of attendances, some clubs are bucking the trend but, many seem to be struggling badly, especially Leeds, Wire and even Wigan.
4300 v Salford is about right.
Wigan next week should be a decent crowd and IF we get past that one, there will be a boost in numbers.
All those stay away fans pretending that they never miss a game

Wakefield have had more rubbish seasons then good unfortunately during my time of watching so a lot of lads I went to school with supported the Rhinos. Thats the past and there’s nothing much that can be done about that. The investment into the community clubs and wanting the kids to not only come watch Wakefield but actually dream to play for them is the future.
