| I'd watch cas at NM. What excuse would i have for not doing so bearing in mind that the majority of leeds fans (just one example) will probably travel a lot further to home games.
my preference would be to stay at WR regardless of it's condition but not at the expense of a SL place because I believe that should we lose it there'd be no way back for us under the license system.

Hope that helps.'"
Ha Ha Epic Fail as the full terms of the lease and the 106 agreement were not fully discussed at the Enqiry and as said Sir Rodney Walker can Only speak for the Wakefield and District Community Trust

| Quote TrinitarianWF2="TrinitarianWF2"If I knew BOTH clubs could stay in SL playing separately there's no way I'd entertain the idea of sharing.
However if your franchise was in danger, which if the RFL followed the letter of the law it probably will be should you have 0 movement on GH/WR (all hypothetical), I'd be more than happy for you to share either temporarily or on a full time basis.
The idea of Doncaster is laughable, WR to Keepmoat is 26.3 miles, WR to NM is 4.7 miles. That's before we mention that moving out of your city isn't seen in a positive light. We asked to play games at Oakwell (9.2 miles from BV) & were flatly told by the RFL that this was impractical. How many fans would go for that? What chance of catching passing fans? Even if you picked up some from Doncaster how many would travel when you eventually moved home? On an ethical level I would appose this, it would be a step too near the NFL for me, with franchises being picked up & moved at will. 23.6 miles you must have a dyslexic tas van
Now I know the RFL are famous for changing their minds, but a move of the best part of 30 miles is stupid IMO, unless you change your name to Doncaster.
At the end of the day the season/my general interest in RL would be diminished by the loss of our derby. If sharing would save that I'm all for it, if we don't need to share EVEN BETTER!'"

| Whether the community stadium is a non profitable company or not it will still take plenty of money to keep it going and if funds dont reach the break even mark either the council will have to make up the short fall or the club renting the facility will have to make it up and that means a price hike, but if two SL clubs did share and both paid an equal amount and straight away the stadium goes from 13 home games to 26 that would mean the rent being less, and both clubs might prosper, for me its just down the M62 to the next junction, although i would prefer our own home the two big clubs at ever side of the common would be debt free and have a new start it just needs both sets of fans & club owners to swallow their pride, & put an agreement together that a merger would not be ever on the cards, the only thing what would ever stop a stadium share is Pride

| Quote browney="browney"If Milan and inter Milan can do it why can't Cas and Wakie?'"
The Milan clubs sharing makes sense for them. I read an article about it years ago there is no particular divide of the city ie north & south, east & west ,districts etc (though the ultras of Inter tend to be more right wing politically, AC Milan left wing).
It seems people follow one or the other through family lines, passed down from grandparents,parents and so on.

As far as I recall, the option for Castleford to take up a tenancy at NM has always been available; I say take up a tenancy rather than share, because it isn't ours in the first place.
It was probably Richard Wright who put a spanner in the works, by trying to influence the planning decision against the development, with his ill-conceived letter to the inspector - if I recally correctly, he suggested that there was no need for the facility, as WTW could share at GH. (The inspector noted in his report that they couldn't, because there was nothing there to share.)
All of that said, if Steve Ferres has a change of heart, I shouldn't imagine that the Trust BoD would hold Tricky Dicky's actions against CT.

| Quote deeHell="deeHell"The £2m that Cas were after should all go to the community trust. [uAt the end of the day their the ones building the facilities[/u for the whole community to use.'"
No they are not and they never were. At the end of the day the stadium development progress is now in the hands of an "entertainment" company based in the midlands.
Who knows? it may happen in a few months time or whenever.
There should be no reason (at this moment in time) for the council to claw back the promised £2m from Cas.

Well i would have thought any forward thinking open minded board would have looked at ALL options, even if only to discount them.
Still if thats that they have told you it'll be the truth.

| if GH is dead and a re-furb of the jungle not affordable, then it would be in the best interest of both clubs to make sure at least one ground gets constructed, we all know agreements and promises have been made, but we also know how easy it is for promises to be broken, neither club as anything except a peace of paper, hopefully no hiccups will accrue, the fans can debate it until we are blue in the face, but at the end of the day we dont have a say in the matters except as a fan, we need two strong SL clubs, so we can keep all the young talent from are area, instead of the big clubs making them think that their grass is greener, in my eyes RW left Cas fans with a bad taste in their mouth under his tenancy, but SF seems to be totally different, if you ask him a question he gives you a answer, RW, always went round the gardens to take you up the garden path
