"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround."

Think I'd stop watching and start following Kippax Knights.

"Castleford's biggest home crowd of the 1991-1992 season wasn't quite 12,000 while on average they'd sit around 6000 but the noise, the chanting and the singing just blows you away" - Tawera Nikau "Standing Tall"
"I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg |

Which proves that your original out of context mis-quote was, at best, an act of childish mischief designed to play to the gallery, or at worst, a dishonest attempt to highlight a point that I never made in the first place.
You can apologise whenever you feel ready.

No brainer for me if we share a nm the club will either be merged, dead or playing in championship 1 within 5 years. I think we will take outr own chances thanks. Good luck with newmarket.'"
For me pyeman, it would be a toss up between 3 things,
1. do i want to see wakey play in the top flight? yes
2. do i mind being a tenant in a ground owned by another club? id prefer not to be
3. is SL the be all and end all? it shouldn't be, but i think it probably is, and that is no disrespect to any clubs below SL level.
The difference for cas would be in question 2. and for me this makes the make up of the question very different to if it was asked of wakefield. IMO cas would be joint tenants at NM, a sports facility for the district on neutral territory.
I side stepped your question slightly, so in answer, i would 100%...............not be sure. |

I would prefer for both clubs to have separate grounds and 100% maintain their own identities, however the clock is ticking and we are still not in either new ground and the rfl have laid down a new factor in this lot of franchises, we arent guaranteed three years if our grounds aren't moving forward.
If both clubs are moving forward, no problem, if not sufficiently for the rfl both clubs could have real problems.
how about:

I agree with you kinleycat. It is up to both clubs to get their respective fingers out because when the licence applications come round next time, there could be a couple of championship clubs with strong cases and the RFL will be looking at both of us if our plans have not come to fruition again.

A tongue in cheek comment on a thread that has little merit other than to provoke exactly that type of response.
It has no bearing on your original dishonest use of part of a quote from an unrelated thread. |

TBH mate, i think if we don't "pull our fingers out" it wont take three years to be staring down the barrels, the rfl have made that quite clear this time around. |

By gum! Make sure you don't get a nose bleed up there on your horse.
Back on topic - I think either club would be daft not to share a ground until their own was completed. |

All small minded drivel aside and without any point scoring, I am not into petty rivalries I want to watch my team have the best advantage commercially, facilities and in infrastructure terms, whatever that takes:
If there was a completed stadium within the catchment area I think both clubs would be idiots not to consider it and use that to safeguard their future.
From a business perspective looking at the infrastructure, tourism and sustainability elements, in my mind the Glasshoughton development is a prime site for that development, but that’s my own opinion.
A stadium does not make the club and the fans - in fact the opposite; fans can make a stadium and support and therefore a club.

Don't worry, I'm quite comfortable up here on the moral high ground.
