Wakefield Trinity v York Knights News
Wakefield Trinity welcome their near rivals, the York Knights from North Yorkshire to West Yorkshire for a match up that will grab the attention of both fanbases and that will have plenty of neutrals looking to keep up with the news for the match.
Wakefield a club on the up and they will act as a great motivator for the Knights as Wakey have spent much of the summer era of the sport just trying to survive, before getting relegated, gaining promotion, establishing themselves in the topflight and now they are establishing themselves as a top 6 club.
Along the way they have promoted some of the most promising juniors in the sport into their first team, they have rebuilt their ground (with more to come), and they have pulled off some great coups with their signings.
York will look at that and think that they have achieved so much of it, from promotion to getting better facilites, but to continue and establish themselves in the league, they need to go to ground such as Belle Vue and come away with confidence intact at least.
For Wakey, if they are to establish themselves as a top club, they need to pick up wins in matches such as this one, especially at home, and that is what makes this such a fascinating match and why the news for the game will be some important for both sets of fans.
