Just seen the squad, Gale still missing. Be interesting to see how Lawford and Lino combine in the middle, but it highlights how exposed we are in that position. It seems we're looking at another prop but I feel we are well covered now.



Anyway can't wait.

For props we have Bain, Vagana and Shaw to add to those.

I’m fine with Gale but perhaps the number of games he may play could be an issue.

Lawford may have to really step up this year.

A back up fullback is needed. We all saw what happened when we didn’t sign Shaul and relied on Gaskell.

Pinch of salt, but this is another take on Gale's absence. https://www.seriousaboutrl.com/luke-gal ... urs-87435/

That's a pretty good squad so lets hope Wigan support the fixture similarly. At £5 entry and a Friday night kick of it should be a good turn out.

My pie supporting friends are saying there is quite a few of them allegedly coming over.
Pity it wasn't arranged for a Sunday as there would have been even more there.
(Yes, I know we have a game on Sunday)

Would have been a huge following on Sunday if imagine and even more home fans but I expect a good attendance.

These past ,there best spine players we have had in the team the last 4 year have got us into the Championship Know some fans will disagree , but 10 games over a season from a spine player i s ssome thing our club could not stand Will go as far as to say Finn was given to long a contract like the others

Of the two I would have chosen the Friday night fixture regardless.

Wasn't on about selecting one or the other Wollo - Just thought 'Tash's game v the pies would have generated more fans and revenue on the Sunday and not Friday.

Minor issue on the ticketing front for this one now....the remaining tickets for the East Stand are now for allocated seats only, so we are now having to go and swap our un-allocated tickets for these allocated ones, so that 7 of us can all sit together, as my bro couldn't get in to the shop until this morning to get his tickets.
Can see this causing one or two problems on Friday unless they put "Reserved" signs on the allocated ones ??

Bought my east stand tickets on line and they were already allocated a seat number.

Seat numbers look a bit confusing... https://tickets.wakefieldtrinity.com/ev ... riors_1229

Probably didn’t have the online service available until now. Looks like they’ve block booked seats that have been bought unreserved in shop.

Just swopped mine for an allocated seat today, again teething problems which hopefully now be sorted the proper systems are in place.

Picked up my east stand tickets and they said it’s a “soft opening” of the stand and you can sit anywhere?

When was that Manuel, cos they are now only selling allocated seats apparently ??

... but if your sat in an allocated seat and that person wants to sit there you'll be asked to move.

The ticketing of the North Stand and the MA testimonial has been a bit of a fudge, but nothing that isn't fixable moving forward as long as lessons are learnt.

The only way around this is to sort out numbers and get in there early.
Even if all seating was "unallocated" there would be issues for groups wanting to sit together.

Not sure what’s going on but we all bought on release and are planning to get there early to get good seats. The option wasn’t there to book specific seats so I won’t be best pleased if I’m asked to move by another fan. In fact i likely won’t move as we will all be sat together.

I also work 9-5 Monday to Friday along with the other adults going so usually can’t get to the club shop.

Surely this change can’t be right.

Common sense would say that allocated ticket holders would be directed to their allocated seats whilst non-allocated ticket holders would be directed elsewhere ??

Makes sense to me...


And tbh I wouldn't mind where I was sat in the Neil Fox Stand.

But you wouldn't know a seat had been allocated to someone else until they rocked and said "excuse me"...

The logical thing to do here is say, yes we are allocating tickets now, but that's just a dry run of the software - sit where you like for this game, with allocation to be use for future games, once the software is proved.

The tickets for the York away game are unallocated but specific to one of the 6 sections. Ours are in SC.
You would expect that the early release of unallocated tickets for our East Stand are similarly within specified sections and that subsequently allocated seats are in areas outside these initials ones. Sounds simple to me. My ticket has no indication of where I'm sitting other than the letter T and a 16 digit number btw.
