  1. Not too disheartened but obviously disappointed to lose.  Thought we looked a bit lethargic which maybe due to our pack being injured for the last 5-6 weeks.  We’ve coped remarkably well with the injuries but feel it’s starting to catch up with us.  Another close loss which we could have won but the future is bright as a club we’re doing the right things.  Well played Leigh best side today.

    Yes and the European Top Cup is moved around as well but I loved the game but the players, coaches and fans deserve to be played in a stadium which is near full and what would the crowd be if Catalan v Wakefield be.

    I don’t know about Catalan but we’d be similar than most SL clubs we took over 10,000 last season for the 1895 cup so I’d imagine a lot more would follow us to the challenge cup final.  Don’t worry about us.

    He can only stop it when he sees the doctor is on, refs aren't psychic, also I think they stop it at the next tackle or other break in play. 

    Without you putting up the full video it is difficult to agree or disagree with what you say.

    It was mentioned in commentary we were hard done by but wasn’t sure if rules had changed.  You would have thought as a duty of care the game would be stopped.

    Wakefield have increased their crowds significantly over the years since SL and of course over the last 2 years under the new owner. It’s not just based on winning Championship games or even because the stadium is starting to offer a better experience. The major reason is the authenticity of the new ownerships plans for the club and the belief of those latent, apathetic fans in the city that this time Wakefield are genuinely on the rise in a sustainable way.

    Toulouse GF was a sell out.   
    Hull KR sold out.   
    Sts 7,000 Sat pm & live on TV.   
    Hull FC sold out.   
    Leigh sold out
    I’ve just been told that Cas at home is heading for a sell out both ticket wise and for hospitality.   
    Bearing in mind that we haven’t won a meaningful home game yet!

    We are doing well and the way the club is run and what the owners want to achieve crowds will continue to increase.  Last weeks Leigh match wasn’t a sell out though.

    I don't blame them given their recent history, but Wakefield fans are going to be unbearable this season aren't they? 😂 York fans kind of heading the same way in the Championship, please Oldham fans do not turn in to this with the success that you are likely to have in the near future. 🤣

    If unbearable means being extremely happy with how the club is run and the direction it seems to be heading, I’m happy to be unbearable.

    I didn't mean it was anything to do with them as such just that my experience was that a) Wakefield is a bit less RL-centric than Cas. Which means b) soccer is more likely to be the number one sport for a greater proportion of people.

    And of the latter, like in Cas, many or most seem to support Leeds United.

    Just my experience of the two places and happy to be corrected.

    Wakefield is a RL City but like every place in England football is popular and LUFC have a lot of support from Wakefield many who support Trinity as well. Support for us doesn’t worry me we’ve won nothing for over 50years playing until recently a dump but still maintaining a decent fan base.  A decent competitive team and crowds will keep increasing especially with the improved facilities and ownership.   There’s a feel good factor at Wakefield at the moment I’ve not seen before, hopefully we can keep improving and reach our potential as we’ve under achieved for the last 50 years.

    As a Wire fan I’m actually glad to see this.  The sport only has 4/5 “viable” big clubs and we need FC to be back as one too, as they’ve been a shell of a club for 2/3 years now sadly.

    I’d say 3 genuine big clubs in England Wigan, Leeds and Hull FC so good to see Hull under new ownership.  Not turning this into a IMG thread but plenty of new money seems to be coming into RL which is good for Super League.
