| I'm guessing he thinks he's being either edgy or hilarious.
0/10 on both counts.
Huddersfield's loss Was clearly Wakefield's gain when he upped sticks. What a clown!!

| Peter Barlow should be an inspiration to every one in Wakefield .Move away to a small town with lower standards and you can aspire to almost anything you want.

| What makes me laugh is that he is looking down on Wakefield and effectively calling us the great unwashed (even though he comes from Wakefield)
Now there is some lovely countryside around Huddersfield and some very posh farm house conversions but you can hardly say that Hudderfield is the great metropolis and image of modern Britain.

| To be honest it’s just an example of why his career has stalled somewhat writing for a small time rag. I don’t think Fleet Street will be in touch anytime soon.

Oh right, such a cad.
To help you out a little Jools, Wakefield unlike Huddersfield is a city not a town, and by population is the 11th largest out of 66, hope that's useful information for any future skits, you don't wanna make yourself look foolish........Do you?

| It is indeed correct to state that Wakefield is a city,but as far as populations go there is a great difference between Wakefield Metropolitan Borough and the city of Wakefield.The Metropolitan Borough includes areas such as Castleford,Pontefract and many more small towns which gives it a population of over 300,000.The city of Wakefield itself had, according to the 2011 census a population of just under 100,000,whereas the population of Huddersfield was just under 163,000.

Thanks for creating an account just to inform us of this. The fact remains Wakefield is a City, Huddersfield isn't.
Thanks again though.

Is that just the urban area? I live near hudds and Wakefield seems so much bigger

| The figures are taken from the 2011 census which gives the populations as Wakefield 99,251 and Huddersfield as 162,949.
There is a website called Love My Town.co.uk which lists all the populations per the 2011 census.Im not computer literate enough to post the url! Also there is no doubt that Wakefield is a city!

And there you have proved my point- I wasn't pointing out the sizes of the residences- rather the snide comments being made by small minded people who can't see the irony of their bad mouthing.
We keep hearing about this wonderful rugby league family -little evidence of it online as a rule.

Or in real life if last weeks shenanigans involving Widnes are any thing to go by, if you really think rugby league is still a family game you must go to matches with your head in your pocket.

| Again misreading my posts. I wasn't talking about RL as a family game. I mentioned the "riugby league family" tag we keep hearing about. As if the game we have in common means we all respect each other..... No chance. Tbh I'm getting sick and tired of it and the way this RL family tag is used to hide the fact that some people are just plain nasty.

You're the only one who mentioned it! The 'RL family' is a myth, and has been for as long as I've been watching the game. Whatever fellow feeling might have been left over from the so-called good old days was snuffed out when SL started, when clubs were destroyed in faux-mergers and the chosen few were given special dispensation to keep them in SL.
