He did ok when he finally came on, not that I'd expect you to have noticed him, with that embarrassment served up by your lot, you'd probably have left the ground already

I just hope he wiped his feet on the way out.

Thank you upthecats and I don't doubt that the supporters who I'm referring to are very much in the minority of your supporter base. I enjoy a bit of banter among fans as much as anyone but I felt it went beyond banter at times today.

Anyway I've said my piece and I wish the Wildcats well for the rest of the 8's. This journey was always going to be a rollercoaster, I just hope we have a few more highs yet to come and who knows we might yet face each other again this season.

I heard the chants you referred to and quite frankly i cringed with embarrassment. Banter is one thing but overstepping the line isn't acceptable and that well and truly jumped over it. I can only apologise on behalf of all decent wakey fans and hope that the imbeciles are rooted out.

Think its more frustration than embarrassment. It's not like it's a shock that a SL team beats a Championship team. Last year was embarrassing. Getting beat by Fev at home was a bit that way as well.

Oxymoron.

I totally did not expect that one.

I'm not embarrassed by our performance today, just frustrated. The injury to Gaskell was unfortunate, but we gave Tim Smith far too much space time and time again. Jimmy mentioned it in his post-match interview, think he used the phrase 'dinner jacket'. Whose fault is it that Smith was allowed to this, then? We just weren't aggressive enough when he had the ball.

With replies like that really don't do yourself any favours, not that you probably care.

As one of many, many decent Wakefield fans Bully, can I offer an apology to you, your family and any other Bradford fans who feel the same.....I never heard the chants personally but am aware a small minority did do what you say....also, the OTT swearing is completely unnecessary and I've said my piece on our own fan page elsewhere about it...everyone can live with the odd slips here and there but its happening too much....

On the flip side I thought your fans were brilliant! Travelled in numbers, were very loud and vocal, even when the game had gone...exchanged some pleasant banter, observed the minutes silence impeccably and gave the very unfortunate Richie Owen a great applause too....a real shame for all you that your team never turned up...

Regarding the game....snip......

I hope Bradford can pick themselves up from today and somehow get the belief back and challenge for a spot back in the top flight, a place I feel Bradford should be....good luck for the rest of the 8's!

I'd echo the comments about the Bradford fans. A credit to the club.
And although I didn't hear it, I hope we can sort out the idiots who were chanting.

Keep the Faith Bradford fans...

I am sure that if the team can put this one to bed & push hard in the remaining games you will have a shot at SL.

Hope not to have to see you for the £million game, but hope you get there anyway.
