Not good enough first half need to be better, hope Langi is ok. Up the Trin

Good times, new owner pumping millions in good times ahead. Up the Trin

Not sure what plan’s for south corporate block as more corporate facilities will be in new stand but I think at the moment they’re keeping it. Agree about Western terrace but needed to sort east and North stand first. Heard new owner is wanting to improve rear of North Stand Upper. Fan zone can be behind east stand or plenty of room at the south end of ground. Don’t forget the new LED floodlights, LED big screen and new state of the art full size flat playing service. Up the Trin

That looks a good hull team, can’t see us winning but play wiell no injuries or suspensions. Up the Trin

You’ve got a good team, a couple of challenge cup appearances in recent years, League leaders not so long ago. I wish we’d have had abit at that success.

We then did a typical Wakefield Trinity thing and put in a terrible performance. There is new optimism better recent performances and new ownership with if rumours are correct sounds very exciting. Up the Trin

Put Huddersfield’s ridiculously low season ticket prices at Wakefield or cas and our attendance would be a lot higher. We did it under glover years ago got decent crowds just couldn’t afford it luckily for you, Ken can. It’s a dangerous model though, cheapens the product and can take years to recover if you have to revert back to normal season ticket prices.

You can’t include junior side playing a pre match tournament as a catchment argument. Similar happens at most clubs, at Wakefield as well as the Wakefield teams we’ve had sides from Leeds Dewsbury Huddersfield probably other areas playing pre match.

It’s certainly an interesting proposition. Especially if the relegated team keep their reserves and established academy and do what they can to improve every other expect of IMG score. If the promoted team is on a similar or lower IMG score it’s interesting how they would approach it.

Correct, I’m sure I read that things like LED floodlights and big screens, score you more points than a new stadium.

Totally agree, even with our league position at the moment I’m more optimistic about our future than I’ve ever been in the 40 years I’ve watched the Trin.

90 - 100,000? That must just be just Wakefield central wards. Outwood Wrenthorpe Stanley Sandal Walton etc are all classed as Wakefield don’t think they’re included in that figure. Up the Trin

Looking good, the pitch of death looks well too. Up the Trin

That’s because it’s not finished, full length stand when finished. Regarding the price that’s how much new stands cost with all the facilities, corporate, changing rooms, offices etc. Think it’s 12-14m including new pitch, floodlights, North stand upper terrace and big screen. Good facilities for the club and City. Up the Trin

No, just laid a brand new playing surface it’s not 3/4g. It’s grass with some plastic holding it together which allows for more use. Up the Trin

New terracing on north stand upper and new barriers.

Lecturer at Wakefield College.

That’s new, there was no roof on North terrace prior to that.

Thanks for the pictures, great to see the ground development. Up the Trin

Fantastic news. Up the Trin

This thread started with a link to WMDC planning regarding detailed planning submitted on improvements to Belle Vue, numerous posts since we’ve had. Some People supporting it, some people ridiculing it, some getting defensive. You get the impression some hope it doesn’t happen and obviously us Wakefield fans who desperately hope it does. If it happens Wakefield Trinity will be in a stronger position and will continue and enhance the great work the club do on and off the pitch. Up the Trin Love this Club Love the City

It’s not because we would be a stronger club if one had been built, hopefully the new stand and the other improvements will make us a stronger club and supplement the good work done by the club in recent years. Up the Trin

Did we say when though? Up the Trin

We been looking to build a new stadium for 40+ years. Up the Trin

Not sucking anyone in, just submitted detailed planning to improve Belle Vue and some RL fans of other clubs are getting upset about it. Up the Trin
