Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us. If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

Quote ="Zulu01"whats with the Wakefield bashing???
To me I pay for the experience, before, during and after the game. (home and away)
Being a Leyther, I was there last year (when we folded during the second half) and I must admit the Wakefield fans are superb, no gloating not one sign of trouble and everyone I met was most welcoming - credit to them. />
When they played Warrington at the LSV, I was with them in the "Centurion" party atmosphere, great day. />
The ground is what it is, people forget at least you can get under cover during bad weather unlike Cas and Leeds. />
Are they holding their own in Super League - yes, so what is your problem?'"

So what. You sold discounted tickets at 10 quid a go and got a decent gate good for Bradford. I said before I don’t care how many other folk are there watching as long as I am watching my team compete in the top league and being run properly off the field

So singing and chanting about the Bradford fire to go with the racist chanting is Bulls playing the race card. That game in 2015 was the worst atmosphere I have had at an RL ground.'" />
I was at that game and didn't hear any of those chants but it is absolutely not on to do that. Carter and fans on various forums have made it clear that it is not welcome at Belle Vue.
/>
Also Wexford does not speak for Wakefield fans. Don't let him wind you up.

| Well, this has been an interesting read! Wakey spank Widnes, basically secure their top 8 place, and 10 pages of rubbish follow. Figure that one out?! So, reading between the lines, we have Bradford fans trying to say Wakefield are an embarrassment due to an attendance figure etc.. From a neutrals point of view heres my very brief summary/view; Michael Carter runs a tight ship financially and keeps a club in the black in a stadium that is not ideal, on reduced SKY funds due to the stadium, returns a small profit and has a team worth watching on the field (yes, I like watching how Wakey play). Bradford had all the assistance they could get, help from the RFL, scrounged money from fans/ex players, had a big supporter base etc.. and still managed to stuff things up. Yet, we have Bradford fans on here saying Wakefield are an embarrassment? Comedy gold this thread!

I think that seems like a good place to lock this thread. Well put caslad75.
