Michael Carter is quick to criticise the people of Wakefield for not attending games but what is the club doing.? Whilst Leigh with there rich backer are taking out full page adverts in the press we can't even update the website. 6 days before a vita home game the front page is still advertising tickets for last week's cas game... PATHETIC |

Sorry but how much does it cost to update a website? |

PATHETIC I think most fans know who we are losing to next, we don't need it plastered all over the city, do we?!

We are at reduced capacity and don’t know capacity figures at present but not room to be had in our 3 home games so far, so no need until capacity increases. That said I see they’re offering family tickets for the Leigh game. Up the Trin |

There has never been a desire to use any mechanism to increase crowds that costs money. Its the main thing in his leaving speech that MC had no grounds to moan. Coupled with an awful product on the pitch for the past 4 years I'm surprised they're holding up at the 4k mark. |

Of all the things wrong at the moment. Updating the front page of the website isn't really top of the list. However I agree, we should be better at it. |

Coupled with an awful product on the pitch for the past 4 years I'm surprised they're holding up at the 4k mark. I think the people of Wakefield are no different to people anywhere else. For the vast majority, spectator sport is not cheap. Therefore people will come to games and spend their money if they think they are going to be entertained and have an enjoyable experience. This club of ours has failed to do that far more often than not throughout the last 4/5 seasons. Next season looks like semi pro second grade fayre will be on offer. The public of Castleord and most likely Fev will have full time SL as their offering. Knowing our lot ,we will also be charging top whack for the experience. There is a well used saying in the betting industry, which is also appropriate for us WHEN THE FUN STOPS STOP. It has certainly stopped for me after many years. I suspect many others are feeling the same way. |

You can excuse th first 2 /3 seasons getting the club through a difficult period, but after that 7 Seasons to get a club up the table and introducing measures to increase income and attendances. Carter's set his stall out season after season based on aprox 4000 attending and that's resulted in stalemate. No investment no idea, we are a club that will never achieve anything under his ownership. THE HOPE GONE, INFACT SUCKED OUT OF THE CLUB. |

Only a team that can string a few seasons of success together will increase the crowd. Can't say as we've done that since around 1966/67/68 Even Fev outnumbered us at McAlpine for that promotion final. |
