What communication are you not getting, it's only Monday and there will be stewards at hand to direct supporters on Saturday.

That's why Bradford are on the western terrace to avoid any flash points. The North Stand will be rocking on Saturday can't wait just hope the team don't bottle it.

Well you're stewards are going to be very busy trying to direct every fan who walks into the stadium. I think a lot of confusion and irritation could be avoided with some planning but that's just my thoughts. Hopefully it will be a good day out, whatever the result. May the best team win.

Sorry my original post was in repsonse to the poster who said Bradford fans wanted to go in the north stand to cause trouble.

I've no problem with segregation and believe it's the best solution after last time. Especially with what's at stake. Only takes a couple or morons who are bad winners for all hell to break loose. Just hope they are plenty of stewards and it is well organised. I think they will be a least 3k Bulls fans.

So standing right in the centre of the home stand, banging a massive drum and calling us inbreds isn't trying to incite? Whatever pal.

That was after your fans started with the racist chants.

I extremely offended nearly wrote an email to the RFL and went crying to the nearest steward, cas is a few miles over common the daft Bradford fools.

That's what started the chanting and that's why your on the western terrace on Saturday to stop these incidents.

If the Wakefield club are so adamant that away supporter's should only stand on the western terrance then why don't you put up a barrier to section that side of the ground off, add a turnstile and only give away fans tickets for that section? If you're selling tickets for ground admission then that's exactly what it is, just like at Odsal.

I remember a large group of Wakefield fans standing above the tunnel on the popular side at Odsal a few years back. Nothing could be done about it as fans can stand where they like as the tickets are for general ground admission. The fact that away fans prefer to gather behind the sticks is irrelevant. I have been going to Bell Vue for years and i've usually stood behind the sticks. Why am I not allowed to do the same now that you've put a roof on?

I think you'll find that the majority of Bulls fans will stand where you want us to but until your club can organise distribution of tickets to away fans for a particular section of the ground then I'm not sure what more you expect?

I'll be very surprised if you get any bother from the Bulls fans. Just about every club In the Championship has commended the Bulls away support this season for their exemplary behaviour. If you think that there will be trouble on Saturday then that is because you don't trust members of your own supporters.

I found the problem with the western terrace is the 1st few steps are low to the pitch level,meaning you don't get a decent view of the other side of the pitch.Some Bulls fans will find this and move towards the North Stand for a full view of the pitch.

P.S Wakey win by 12+

I think this sums it all up for me - Segregation IS needed for such a big game where emotions will be high!

Bulls fans on Western terrace and North West corner IF they bring over 2K as predicted, which I hope they do and a good game and atmosphere is there for all.

There has been vitriol building since the middle of last season and it's all going to come to a head on Saturday unless there is a clear set of instructions issued as to where fans can and can't stand. That said, I expect a lot of it will be people just looking to cause trouble for the sake of it, whether they know where to stand or not.

Who would've thought a roof in that part of the stadium would cause so many problems?!

Were there that many issues without the stand? I don't seem to think there were...

Was it full on riots in 2006 against our neighbours?

Is everybody making a big deal of segregation.....or have all rugby league fans turned into football fans?

Some fans are obviously worried about losing the home noise battle for such an important game should the Bulls fans get under the roof. Fair enough but let's not pretend that it's anything else.

The Bulls have travelled in large numbers to every Championship ground this season and have helped to break several attendance records along the way. At the majority of grounds we have stood in stands that could fit our travelling numbers and all passed trouble free. If Wakefield are expecting trouble then that's a reflection on their fans, not ours.

If Wakey want fan segregation so desperately, I suggest that they create an away section and sell the tickets accordingly.

We have clubs a lot bigger than Bradford visiting Belle Vue and they follow the rules without crying like babies. Is it a case of Bradford thinking they are bigger than they are.

We are bigger than we are.

Your women are

They have, they've advised anyone that cares to listen that Bradford have been allocated the West terrace.

Where's that been stated then? If you can direct me to that announcement then I'd be more than happy to comply.

I have checked the Bulls + Wakefield site for information regarding segregation. Neither site mentions it under the ticket info for the MPG. Tickets don't mention any specific standing area

Eh? Home noise? I just want to see the game. Western terrace is quoted as 1800 capacity. So that means 900 + fans are going to have to go in the north stand. You say that there's a plan in place for those fans to go in the west corner of the north stand, great.


As is accepted, the front couple of steps at the terrace give a poor view of the whole pitch, especially if you're behind the dugouts & the staff standing up. So once the back of the terrace is full, there may be more wanting to go to the north stand.

Unfortunately, the North stand would seem to be 40-50% of your entire ground capacity. So we're going to have to be in there in some proportion....

You can stand on the east terrace

If western terrace is full then north west corner is the usual practice.

We don't have any issues were we stand. It's the Wakefield fans on this forum that seem to be trying to direct operations but nothing from your club. You'll have to excuse us for not following fans order's and waiting for an official club announcement (which apparently they have done but us away fans can't find it). I'm now waiting for you to tell me where you'll allow me to park?

If your club tell us to stand on the western terrace then that's where the majority will head...until it's full or we can't see the game.

When entering Belle Vue which ever turnstile you come in stewards direct away fans to the western terrace it's happened at most games for the last 3 years don't see the problem
