Shambolic from trying to get in with only 2 turnstiles open on Doncaster rd to the complete team performance or should I say lack of it. The players have cost you a few grand today Mr Carter with dropping down to 5th a026.gif" alt="a026.gif" title="Shoot Poster" />

Quote ="vastman"Is that 70k turnover or pure profit - I'm just interested as it gives a good idea as to what we make out of non regular ">games.'" I think his exact words were it was "Worth 70 to 80 thousand pound to the club" which I think would indicate profit? At a guess!

Quote ="REDWHITEANDBLUE"He didnt say but as a guesstimate I would assume profit for instance if we had an average of say 5500 for 4 home games with 4500 adults and 1000 kids the adults would bring in around 90k give or take then whatever it would be for kids and hospitality then expenses off. I am no accountant this is fag packet stuff but my assumption would be ">profit.'" Don't forget a fair number of those fans will be season ticket holders though aswell. I think I saw MC recently said the club wouldn't survive without the income of food and refreshments on a match day so I think that's probably a bigger number than we imagine as well.

Quote ="Shifty Cat"Just had a look over at TotalRl forum to see what a few Wakey fans were saying over there and one post particularly caught my eye. A poster claims, all the teams from Hudds, Catalans, Wire, Saints and Wigan will defo be better next year. so we've missed our opportunity. Who's to say what any of those Clubs will do next year, just like 2016 & as far as I can see, we're still in there to finish as high as we ever have in SL. As long as we play like we know we can. So how have we missed our opportunity? It's not as if anyone thought we were realistically going for the Grand Final Also he says this season looks like an ananomly (I preumre because of this loss) rather than a breakthrough year now. Lets be right just about every pundit and fan, except for our own, had us down in the bottom 4 and we've managed to be competing near the Top 4 each week, how isn't that a breakthrough year for Trinity. He also amazingly thinks that there are question marks over the coaching staff about taking the Club further and their ability to win vital games. Basically because we ddn't beat Saints today, plus we finsihed 8th last year and got to the CC semi and this year 5th and the CC 1/4 finals and apparentely we spent a bit more on the SC and it's just a small step forward. Must be just me, but this season has seen the general level of consistancy and quality of RL, (barring the odd game) has literally come on leaps & bounds over last year and many a year before that. This year we qualifeld for the Top 8 with ease & going into the last week could have ended up 3rd with a win. Last year, even though Chester did a great job when he came in, we got into the top 8 basically because Salford got a points deduction and we got a good draw in the CC to get to the Semi. I think on the money we spend compared to all others, the Club and players have done a marvelous job and some fans seem to lose sight of that fact ">sometimes.'" Just had a look over there, what a cheerful and positive guy that is! Later goes on to claim he/she is not being negative d040.gif" alt="d040.gif" title="CRAZY" />

Everyone is clearly free to post here or elsewhere if they wish.

The 'no wonder no one posts' argument is pretty tired. It's used quite often when people font get their own way.

There are currently 28 people logged in to just the Wakefield forum in the middle of the day, with hundreds of guest visitors.

I don't think we have to worry about frightening off the old crew.

Just follow the AUP. I'm pretty certain no user is named directly in it apart from Admin.
