Podcast all about the rock bottom club, a club with no hope, no roof on the away end and no leader both on and off field I talk with @Downatbellevue (Twitter handle) about life as a fan of Wakefield and how they are living through a traumatic campaign. Past few years have been a downward trend for the club that has since turned into a spiral. Can the team that somehow always defies the odds do it again? or is it time to prepare for life in the championship. Twitter: @johnlew13 and @RamblingSaint7
