Looking at Wakey’s remaining fixtures it doesn’t look good if they don’t beat Cas at home next week
Cas (h) Wigan (a) Saints (a) Hull (h) HKR (a) Wigan (h) Warrington (a) London (h)
Can’t see them getting anything out of the 4 against Wigan, Saints and Wire. HKR even though they got battered last night have still beaten Wire and Hull at home recently since Smith came in so will be tough. Hull are inconsistent so it’s pure hope you get the bad version.
Could see it being a final day battle between Wakey and London for relegation if they lose next week to a Cas team that isn’t in best nick themselves recently.

It would be better for Super League if either Wakefield or Salford go down because of their weak fan bases, and in Wakefield's case, because of their appalling stadium. London has a small fan base but is strategically located in the UK's most important city, which is important for growing the game, while Wakefield has no strategic significance for the growth of the game.

At last the embittered Leigh supporters have popped up, and are trying to divert attention from the massive Catalans victory over the struggling Wakefield.
But I will avoid a warning, as you put it so articulately.

Not as hard as having to read the kryptonite you keep posting on here,

What's the russian for can i have an extra box of kleenex?
JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
