| Quote: financialtimes "Having been to a couple of games at the Olympic legacy park, I'm not sure how they could accommodate 1500 wakey fans
They could accomodate that number in theory if they allow access to all areas, but the banks on the touchline opposite the stand and also behind the posts at the far end are quite steep and thus quite uncomfortable to stand on for any length of time (ok to sit on if dry) - people tend to congregate at the bottom of the slope or the top as a result.
When they played Batley in their latest home game they closed most of the areas off where the banks are (basically half the perimeter of the ground) but they surely won't be able to do that because there just won't be enough space.
I'm slightly surprised that more people haven't tried wandering up on the hill that directly overlooks the ground and getting a birds-eye view for free!

| Law was given a tough time by Sau first half for sure, but fair play to him he stuck to his task well, was helped in the second half by the back row (12) moving out wider to add extra cover. Ran a lovely line and burst onto a short pass for his try
Lawford, I thought, in the first half when Keighley went in front, got frustrated at times, was worrying seeing him head for the sidelines holding his arm but thankfully it appears to have just been a stinger which he shook off and stayed on, had a better 2nd half, backed a break up well and made good meters, put in a beautiful diagonal kick for the last try.
Shaw got through a lot of tackles, and did his fair share of carries, didn't really make that many meters, but he took a lot of his carries from out of the 20m and into a very aggressive Keighley defence against much bigger and more experienced opponents.
Thoroughly enjoyable game to watch

| Aside from us being at the top, this is turning out to be an unpredictable league. Hardly the weakest championship at all.

It's unpredictable because there isn't much between most of the teams apart from Wakefield. For the last 10 years are so there have been several tiers - usually 1-2 teams that dominate, then the next 3-4 that are a lot better than the rest. But there's only 1 good team in the league this year and that's why it's the weakest Championship overall for a long time.

That's how I see it.The standard at the top has dropped drastically. That's why we shouldn't get carried away and start thinking some of these players are better than they are.

| Hull FC have sent Franklin Pele and Davy Litten on loan to York initially for two weeks.
What's the betting that Pele gets sent off or banned even on loan?
