An amazing effort boys.

The team spirit really is there.

Beginning to think, everything is possible with this team.

Keep it going

Just completed the long drive back to East Yorkshire. What a great match and superb defence from the boys. Thought it was a bit harsh to be penalised like we were just before Salford's first try of the 2nd half but otherwise no complaints.

I've supported Trin since the mid-1980s and I think this is the best squad I've ever seen (hope I haven't jinxed it now for the end of the season).

Yes I too thought it was harsh.
Someone may put me right, but I don't think we had a penalty second half until Dobson kicked out on the full in the 79th minute.

Nah, we had a couple before that.
There was a head shot coming out of our 20 in the first half, that was given

No - only 6 out for us not 9

Mossop
Johnson
Jones
Flanagan
Walne
Lannon

Well played Wakey - some good stuff played and great wingers. Fitness did us in the end and Dobbo was off colour for the first time this season and should have been replaced early by Carney. You cant have an Australian International on the bench for 60 minutes and win in Super League. Big mistake for me by Watson.

Re the Crowd - Well there were 2 big events - 2 miles away - 70k at Manure & 50k at the Concert. We`ve no excuses and Koukash is at his wits end but sadly most Salfordians follow ManU in preference to anything else.

Thought most Man U fans llive south of Watford?

Well done Wakey best team won, hardest team we've played against this year. Top Defence, speed on the wings and solid down the middle also missing a few fair as well. See you in the Quarters for what i think is tie of the round

Re: Next up Salford : Mon Jun 05, 2017 7:51 pm  

Was just remembering at the beginning of the very first match of the season, Jon Wells stood at the touch screen and commented that Wakefield hadn't got 10 wins in them this season. How brilliant to prove him and other pundits wrong.

Nice try.

Btw, as I posted on our board the Carrick testimonial and Concert are just smokescreens. We've just got an incredibly shi-te support base. If I had a quid for everyone I met on my walk home from the ground that asked "hiw did WE go on"? I'd be a feckin millionaire. The few fans we have ate generally great and usually make a racket, there just aren't enough. Pretty sure we took around 1200 to Wire on Monday so why we can only muster double that at home feck only knows.

Anyway, as I said earlier, well played. Really good team Wakey and we're defo the tie of the round in a fortnight. I'm not looking forward to those beer prices down south tho....

Similar questions can be heard around Wakefield. Both ourselves and Salford are serving up some great rugby and yet the public of the respective cities can't be r'sed to turn up. Give em a sniff of Wembley and they'll all come out of the woodwork.

Never a truer word said! Annoys the poop out of me tbh.... I've only ever known one half decent Salford team (bar this one) in 28 years but I've had a season ticket for all but a couple of those years because they're my team come rain or shine. Maybe I've been fortunate that I was born a Utd (of the Manchester variety ) fan, so 9 times out of 10 my weekend has been rescued by a Utd win! I'd love to see a Salford-Wakey (or, dare I say Salford-Cas ) challenge cup final. It must be a piece of mickey being a Wigan/Saints/Leeds fan watching your team win something every year, yet the likes of Salford & Wakey get ridiculed year upon year for being everyone elses biatch!

I'd love nothing more than seeing us in a Wembley final and when we play you in a fortnight may the best team win. If it's not us then I'll be rooting for you guys as it would be nice to see a new name on the cup. Besides, we're your feeder club so would be like watching a Salford win anyway...
