| Anyone think that Wigan may relax and we could sneak it, or we'll just take a battering going on what we saw on Monday?

Let's hope it's put his kicking radar out to reduce the points tally.
These are the games we sometimes win against the odds but I think Wigan will be far too strong for us after about 55/60 minutes.

Wakey to win 25 - 18.
But you do realize that if you go you will be segregated from the Wigan fans don't you and you will have to sit
with the Wakey fans at one end

No Charnley or O'Loughlin we just need Pat Richard's plane to be delayed and Tomkins to pull up in the warm up and we MIGHT have a chance...

| Just because they put 80 0dd on Hull KR doesn't mean they're gonna do it again. They have a few players missing and we have a full squad, surely to goodness we're not gonna get hammered though we need to improve on Monday big style if we're gonna do anything. I'll be happy if we play for 80 mins not in fits and starts as we have done recently, and, if we do, then we have a chance. This is such an unpredictable league you never know what could happen and it's the Wakefield way, lose when we're expected to win and beat the best of 'em when we think we're gonna get walloped. I think we'll do ok and to win would be amazing, here's hoping!

It's not really what Wigan did to HKR that worries me, it's more how we played on Monday. HKR effectively gave that game up before it had started, which is a whole other debate, and Wigan ran hot. When we play sides like Wigan they have to be off their best and us at ours. I didn't see much sign of life on Monday.

| Well I think we are in for a tough game.
Yes we were very good against Hull but they were shocking in defence and I would expect a top amateur team to have kept us to a lower score.
Really looking forward to seeing Tim Smith play again.

I see and get the clubs point of view, but is it no longer acceptable to post an opinion that doesn't shower the club with kisses. People were not happy and they had a right not to be. I'm dismayed as to the treatment some have received regarding said issue from both the club groupies and a few who should know better. Now they cop it on unrelated threads for simply voicing an opinion....nice. I realise one poster won't let it go and has posted on here but it doesn't make the point raised any less valid.

Yeah - and in their state-of-the-art stadium everything you do can be seen and if you light up / use foul language / throw something / hit someone it will be seen and you would be dealt with!
You cannot compare the demands of managing the stadium between BV and the DW - they are 100 years apart, physically and metaphorically.
We all know the limitations of BV, hence the reason we've spent nearly 10 years campaigning to move out.
We have a problem at BV and whether its £1k, £20k or £100k we cannot afford to have the good work to improve the stadium / the crowds and our entertainment undone because of it. Communications aside, the club have my support in whatever action they deem fit to rid our stadium of the idiot minority; assert control and ensure we have a pleasant and safe match-day experience.
There are bigger issues to deal with than your favourite piece of concrete!

That's a lot easier to say when you know the actual reasons which I assume you do. I realise the club can't tell fans everything and why should they. However people pay £22 to get into BV and the very least they can expect is the right to air their grievances right or wrong. We can't have it both ways with the club wanting near charity status from fans where it suit then being all business like when it doesn't.
I'm not having a go at you or defending a poster who just won't let it go. However we both know it's easy to get annoyed when you don't know what's going on. Also like it or not it most definitely spoilt the whole atmosphere at BV which is a massive shame - and having stood on the west terrace for years I really don't know what has happened that is so bad as I've never seen any real trouble.
There was a time when if I'd missed a match I'd happily have given the club the money - but it's a different game now - and because of that I tend to want what I want a lot more those days because I'm not a charity either.

I get all that - I've had to move myself, but this poster just can't / won't let it go and yes, I kind of know, but not really, which is a shame as I would have hoped the club would use the ST as a conduit for these things - so it's supporters dealing with supporters and we can then strike a reasonable balance - that much I am disappointed in.
Without any details to connect the two, perhaps it is worth considering the method WY police had in dealing with Hull City supporters coming to Huddersfield, just a few days earlier. There were protests on the streets of Huddersfield over that and a lot of bad publicity. There is also a history of City supporters piggy-backing the FC games to cause trouble in WY. Again, none of this is knowledge, but it gives some indication of the issues the club may have had to deal with that we don't know about and, in all honesty, would they really wish to broadcast something like that?
Anyway, back on topic in a way, clearly the reference to the methods of stewarding a modern stadium and comparing it to a 19th century stadium in the 21st century is a mile off the mark.
Oh, and btw, I think Wigan will win, but we'll fight hard and true and certainly beat the bookies!

So just to clarify, Monday is not going to be the norm - if so I'm happy???
It would have been much easier for folk to stomach had the club made that clear, assuming it's the case.

No, I am not saying that - I don't know, but I would have thought Davide would have clarified that if it were the case.

| Out of interest shouldn't the message by Davide be, at the very least, put on the website and in the local press? Not every wakey fan is a member of this forum.
