How embarrassing for the decent cas fans on here.

Firstly, well done to RW for sticking up for the club and its fans, who have paid money to support their club.

Secondly, well done to Wakefield for rephrasing their comments and clarifying the situation. Some see it as a back down but I saw it as a necessary statement to make - I think they made a massive boo-boo yesterday in all honesty. Still think the this is for away fans, that's for home fans isn't going to be enforceable, simply for the fact that the more people that go into the North Stand the more it will swell in proportion of fans.

FWIW, though. I'll be standing with all my Wakefield friends right behind the posts.

Wakefield haven't backed down we just needed to explain it in more detail to some cas fans and richard wright who didn't seem to understand it. There's designated standing area for both home and away fans to stand like most SL grounds. This is to create a better atmosphere and after consultation with RFL & police this is advised as the best solution for the safety of supporters. The combination of traditional all day good Friday drinking in Wakefield + local derby +first match since the north stand roof has been completed was too much of a recipe for disaster so designated areas is the way it has to be. Unfortunatly we both have idiot fans and not wanting a fine for failing to control a crowd we have had to follow police advice . Wakefield as a club are wanting to do this from now on to be inline with other SL clubs and create a better atmosphere. Talking to someone who works for key security tonight at training said this will be enforced he said family partys and work groups can all stand together but groups and barmys has he put it will all be in their designated areas of not they will be moved there,loads of extra stewards have been brought in to make sure it works the night passes off without incident and we all enjoy the night for the Rugby

Also you'll all be able to drink in our merrie city, I'm told fev have not only imposed very strict segregation for next week even though it also says ground admission on your tickets but also the fev pubs won't allow any cas in, sad times

No, it was patently obvious what the WTW were getting at. Nothing about us not understanding it; Cas fans can only enter at this area and have been given the NE corner and the Eastern terrace. The rest is for Wakey fans and stewards will be on hand to monitor this. Please advise, where in this paraphrased sentence and not totally verbatim sentence, does it make out that Cas fans can stand where they like or any of the comments that Wakefield have made in their second comments.

All SL games generally have separate stands that cannot be accessed from other areas or all turnstiles, hence this. The tickets were sold as general standing - you simply cannot change that after tickets have been sold already.

Wakefield as a club are wanting to do this from now on to be inline with other SL clubs and create a better atmosphere.

No one has a problem with that but it could have been announced in a better way weeks ago before tickets went on sale. The 'Let's Go North' campaign as you lot like to call it has been ongoing for weeks. The club could have done this then. They didn't - they did it 48 hrs before a derby and all it did was inflame the situation.

As I have said elsewhere, it's over and done with now - the situation is resolved - we can move on. As for you other comments, I suspect it will be any club's intention to ensure that the main singing groups are kept apart - that's just common sense.

And many wakey fans, and unless trinitarian wf2 was telling barefaced lies, at least one of your clubs ticket staff.

Whether its a climb down or a clarification we can all make our own minds up, at best this was a wakefield cock up with a poorly thought out and very poorly timed statement, at worst this was an attempt at segregation with a spectacular climb down, either way well done Richard wright for being a voice for his own clubs fans and getting the situation sorted.
