You are right there was nothing on show today that would have attracted any new folk to come back again. It was dull and boring but it will be better when we play against better teams.

I can see what the OP is saying here, today was supposed to be all about trying to win some new fans over for the Wildcats and by the sound of what i have read on here that did not happen. The lads may have put 100% in but they still got spanked and that is not what people who are not the die hards want to see so my guess is that today has probbably done you future attendances much more harm than good. And as for telling the prospective new fans to like it or lump it well I think thats a bit off the mark too.

Look at our side, V.young, i saw alot today that ed me off (first 15 mins) but i saw alot to be hopefull about, once the guys got over their nerves they played with real heart, some of our defence was awsome, early days with a young side.
As for crowd been Quiet, i have lost my voice, you should have got your mates shouting and if they found it boring they proberbly would never come again anyway, you need to explain to them its not easy been a Trin fan

| reckon about 200 salford fans give or take.
not a lot for wakey fans to cheer and loads heading for the exit early.
cant argue that it was boring, not the home of sexy rugby are we?

| 50 / 200 / 300 = they were making a fair bit of noise after the final whistle, which I could heard from the far side of the car park otherside of the ground. Fair play to however many there were, they supported well.
Us, well I noticed how quiet it was, I also didn't see much to cheer about. Transfers coming in please - influential playmakers, people who can hold their own up the middle, and a gameplan that plays to the skills of those on the paddock, including looking at this five drive and kick thing - that ain't working!

| the least important thing about Sundays game was the result... for me it was a statement from the people of Wakefield that they were behind a professional rugby league team representing the city...
i that respect I am massively dissapointed... and I am sure Andrew Gliover will be as well. If he wants to run this as a business and not a hobby (as most of the rich investors do) then he now knows the full extent of the job ahead.

| How many did you expect to turn up to a ground thats uncovered when its pi$$ing it down against a team that before today were playing rubbish. We've only filled the ground once in so many years.

| 7,000 was my benchmark for success today, I never thought for one minute we would get more than 8,500 even on a sunny day which today definitely was not.
The despondent air still lingers around the City to a certain extent and while there have been many positives over the last two weeks people will take more than a few days to subscribe to being a fully fledged fan.
IMO the next thing that needs to happen is a couple of really good head turning signings. I know we are hamstrung for a few weeks in terms of overseas but IF we now able to spend up to the cap limit then we ought to be able to crowbar someone away from another club.
I'm all for giving the lads who are here a go but many of them are young kids who will suffer physically the longer the season wears on and playing them week in week out won't do their long term future any good.
We need some size, experience, maturity and class importing and the sooner the better.

Yes, I think Glover has enough about him, to realise that it's going to take something like a couple of exciting signings, to get some of the stay aways to return. It is going to be a gradual thing, but if enough effort and the right signs are shown by the club, it will get the trust of people again.

| It was men against boys today - one thing Wakey didn't lack (apart from the first 10 mins!) was effort. Wakey played as if they'd had no pre-season, which I suppose they hadn't really.
