Wakefield Trinity v Bradford Bulls News
Wakefield Trinity and the Bradford Bulls have had some incredible battles during the summer era of the sport including that infamous Million Pound game that saw the hosts keep their place at the top table and Bradford left in the 2nd tier wilderness.
Since then, Wakefield has new ownership, new facilities and a new outlook where they are now targeting titles and trophies rather than survival.
Bradford maybe back in the top tier but it hasn’t been quite as organic as Wakeys, so they will head to Belle Vue with a point to prove.
When you add in the history these two have, the fact that it is a battle between two sides based in West Yorkshire and the bumper crowd in attendance and you all that you need for an incredible match up.

Stadium
The match takes place at the historic Belle Vue stadium in the city of Wakefield that has quickly developed into one of the best Rugby League specific stadiums in the country.
For far to long the stadium was well below the level needed to be Super League worthy and was a big problem for the club, but recent investment has left the club with a tidy ground and one that continues to improve.
A new ‘Grandstand’ runs the full length of one side of the pitch and features a mixture of general access seating and corporate facilites.
The north end of the ground is a large terrace which is partially covered and that houses the bulk of the most vocals fans in the stadium.
The other side of the pitch is the only part of the ground still in need of re-development as it features a shallow and date terrace with little to cover those standing there from the elements.
The far end of the pitch is home to the now infamous ‘Benidorm flats’ a vertical stand of boxes, bars and other added extra facilities.
Location
Belle Vue is found in the district of the city of Wakefield that it takes its name from, with Belle Vue been around a mile south of the city centre.
Wakefield itself is the capital of West Yorkshire and borders Bradford to its northwest, with borders also with Batley, Huddersfield, Castleford, Leeds and Dewsbury and with Featherstone been part of the city and it will be no surprise that this is one of the biggest hotbeds of the sport globally and one of the biggest production areas for talent.
Wakefield sits just to the south of the M62 motorway, which is often thought of as the traditional northern heartlands of the sport.
