With you there pyeman, if cas play there games out of cas this fan wont be watching. Cas should always play there games in cas, i would rather play NL1 in cas not SL in wakefield.

maybee not for wakefield, as you then could call it a community stadium but if cas did go there it wouldnt just be for a year while our ground was built as that would all be forgoten about by our great board, i think it would be for about 3 years untill we were either forced to merge or we just simply ceased to be. i am sure there will be plenty on here who disagree and thats fair enough, i just hope it never happens and i have to watch myself be proved right.

| I think all RL fans would agree Wakey should have their stadium and Cas should have theirs.
Keep the teams alive and well and playing where they should be.

Agreed. And maybe one day we'll be able to offer a couple of derby days each year to rival Hull/KR or Saints/Goons.

Technical point - but it would be joint tennancy - not ownership. That is the nature of the Community Stadium title.
I would agree with the above - 2 stadiums would be fantastic and I would love to see Cas get theirs, and soon, but it does seem that there are plenty of hurdles in the way and that consideration of, at least short term, relocation may be in order.
Good luck!

Cas should play in Cas, cant fault your logic there. But if things dont work out for either one of the clubs I for one would hate having to go to GH to watch Wakey, but being realistic if thats what it takes then that is what I would do because the survival of the club takes priority over my own personal preferences and as a fan of the club surely its better to at least have the opportunity to watch them play in the league everybody wants to be in irrespective of whose ground it is than die a slow death in the lower leagues because of peoples stubborness to come to terms with the reality of it. I know I am slightly biased but if we had to go to Cas it would be a lot harder to take in because we would be going to your ground, Where as if you came to Stanley you would not be sharing our ground but in fact but a community stadium which is in essence as much yours as ours.

Its just the way i feel chissit, i support my home town team if they dont play in my town anymore there not my hometown team, to me we become a methly team then using castleford colours. Any game where you have to catch a bus to get to isnt a home game. If its a choice between losing our identity and dropping down a league i would rather drop down a league. I disagree that dropping down a league would be more likely to kill us off, if we move into methly our crowds will drop massivley and either the club will go bust or they will make us merge. i think we have enough loyal supporters to start a new club in championship 1 (ala sheffield, gateshead) but i would rather go from sl to the championship than start from scratch.

At the end of the day 15,000+ residents wouldn't have signed up to support the scheme if nobody wanted it.

Yet funnily enough only around 5000 bother putting their hand in their pocket and go to games.
So around 10000 will sign a petition and expect other people to pay for it.
How many would sign the pettition if they were also signing up to pay £1200 each towards the stadium - probably very few.
