What is causing the increased optimism at Wakefield? I thought it was still all doom and gloom over there with all the pretending and lies over a new stadium.
Pretending and lies? The public inquiry for our new stadium at Newmarket begins on monday but don't let the truth get in the way of your pathetic trolling.

Both Hull and Souths to increase their average attendees by over 1000 would be my guess.

Yes the starting number was less than 1000, but is anyone suprised at that figure after all the uncertainty of SL future etc.
The increase in optimism come's from the fact we now appear to have a staff (marketing,commercial etc) at the club who seem to know what they are doing, a chairman who is willing to put his money where his mouth is when it count's and also a squad that mmost Wakefield fan's believe will not only compete in SL but possibly suprise a few people along the way.
I'm going to ignore most of the stadium comment as what you've said is, quite frankly, Bulls***! There is no lies coming out of Wakefield with regards the stadium, if the PI is sucessful then the build should take place pretty quickly. All will be revealed, either way, within the next 6 months or so.

With the new stadium I'd be hoping 7-8,000 depending on how well the club get it right in and off the field so I'd say realistically 4-5,000! Massive season for us so we'll mess it up as usual.

If Bradford manage to get on any sort of a roll, they will have an increase. The season ticket base is already paid, and any winning run will generate a decent walk-up in addition.

Reckon Leigh will be a suprise increase, less optimism and probably not as good as a team, but a new season ticket scheme and a new sense of community at the club will help. Around 2300 again I reckon. Major problem for us is no Widnes.

A fourth consecutive season of failure on the pitch will result in a dramatic drop in attendances next season, even taking into account the 'poundland' season ticket offer.

You'd have to assume that St's, Salford & Warrington should all eclipse their attendances with new stadia's or extensions & with Widnes' inclusion in SL. Apart from that, Wakefield will of course, mainly down to finally having a management team who know what they're doing. Hudds, seem to show steady progression, Bradford pretty solid.
The one club we need to see an increase in is London.
