I’d be delighted if we did and I agree a great achievement. All I’m saying is that it’s not the main aim.

Promotion and then finding a way to achieve an A rating, which would protect our top flight status.
A different Championship Club will be trying to win the 1895 cup and Championship GF next season and no doubt be pushing for a SL spot, we have to make absolutely certain that they or, anyone else, cannot replace us in SL.

If Ellis dream comes true this season will be a footnote.


And I'm saying, if you are right, we have done something wrong.

Just like the club have started recognising Kelly's promotion winning side, this side should not be forgotten.

I'm almost certain Hull FC did it in the old second division in 79/80 season before the advent of Super League at the start of their rise to prominence in the 80's

I was thinking the same.

........and they went on to be a major club in the early 80s.

Agree.
That's the most important thing.......

Yeah, we buy tickets for the North Stand but, I think that we're going to be in the South Stand.
A bit weird but, whatever works ?

Scrap that, apparently we are sharing the North Stand with Widnes.

I love the way it phrases it:

https://widnesvikings.co.uk/tickets/visitingfans/

"Please note Wakefield Fans will be located in the North Stand
but please proceed with General Admission for South Stand."

"Please note WAKEFIELD FANS need to purchase in the South Stand but will be seated in the North Stand."

The world doesn’t end at BV does it, there is a wider one. Of course these things are remembered by the faithful and those who were there, but that’s not going to generate new fans is it. I know it’s your mission to disagree with everything I post, even when you’re clearly intelligent enough to know I’m right, a certain amount of hubris on your part.

Les than 60 seconds on both Look North and Calendar regarding our game suggests it’s already a non event as far as the media and the wider sporting world are concerned.

There are far more positives than negatives from Saturday’s game. It was a real shot in the arm for the faithful and it also peaked the interest of the lapsed.

But let’s be real just for once. We are still in the Championship for now, we won what should be called the nice day out at Wembley Cup, even Gale pointed that out. Enjoy it, I am, but it’s a tiny achievement compared to what I believe will come in the next few years. First one being to get back to SL.
