We live in 2024 pt if your disabled everywhere you go have to provide for you wakefield themselves had to provide a seated stand so folk could attend and sit whilst the stand was been built here its not the case so im sure there is some authority out there who would say the disabled are been dscriminated against here remember not all disabled people are in wheelchairs.thats the point im making

I get your point, but there has to be a limit.
Many amateur sport venues don't have seating. Same as not everywhere that has a toilet has a disabled toilet.

I'd love it if everywhere catered for everyone, but some venues are not capable.

I wanted to go to the Comedy Night at my local pub but when I rang up for tickets they were sold out. I was furious and told them they should have held it at the pub down the road, it’s bigger. Guess what the response was?!?

But, that's the difference isn't it???
It's your "local pub" with all the usual regs in place for such an establishment.
We are talking about a club - and with no offence - a maximum safety limit of fans (like your pub)

Match Day!
Trinity are giving 68 start to Siddal on Bet365, the weather forecast is Dry and 8 degrees and according to Siddal the
game is a sell out.

Really nice try buts its not about tickets availability is it,wakey not sold theres allocation have thay(or they hadnt) its to do with fans who cant stand not been able to sit and if you cant stand for upto 2hrs you cant attend

I take your point, not a good analogy. We love the Challenge Cup and often go to the early rounds at amateur/community clubs but we’re not going to Siddal. At 5’11” I’ll struggle to see a lot of the action. At 5’6” Mrs KH will see zilch so,much as we’d love to be there, we’ve made the decision that it’s not worth the 200 mile round trip. Harsh as it sounds, disabled fans and people who’d struggle to stand for 2 hours have to make the same judgement call - does it make sense to attend? You’ve made the point that there are laws regarding disabled access but adjustments have to be reasonable and it’s arguable that it’s not reasonable for a small community club like Siddal to make suitable adjustments (though they may have done - I don't know).
It’s a poop situation. A lot of fans who would have gone will be unable to go for a variety of reasons but it’s the rules of the competition and Siddal have the right to play at home. It’s part of what makes the Challenge Cup special - the Magic of the Cup.

I tend to agree. We'll win (hopefully) but not by such a margin.

What about short, deaf fans who can't stand up for 80 minutes?

I have to say I think we'll hammer them.
No disrespect meant to Siddall but fitness will make a massive difference and we'll run away with it in second half.
