Not anymore from what ive heard

Ive just heard that funding is not a problem now, he is a good source that is very rarely wrong,

I said to him and il say on here i will not be happy until im stood in the new stadium.

I just feel it might happen now rather than it wont happen.

At reading the cr@p from a fellow supporter I thought I would add my two penneth to the stadia argument since it appears that there is some useful discussion.

It seems to make economic sense to share the stadium. There is no doubt about that. If the stadium could be double fronted so from one entrance would be Wakefield and would be the home stand for Wakie and the the other Castleford it would allow each club to maintain it's identity and to have separate facilities, shops and branding with the possibility of shared resources reducing operating costs (groundsmen / stewards / hot dog vendors. etc). Cas fans can approach from one way and see their stadium and Wakie fans the other and see their stadium. How often do you walk around the stadium to see the other stands?

Each separate stand could have it's own season tickets which wouldn't cause a problem on Derby day and it would get more use as a game would be there pretty much weekly. planning for overlapping fixtures would be easy with a 24hour turnaround.

Brand identity would be the key though as other shared stadia (Galpharm as an example) are often sanitised of their club identity and become a faceless feature.

You thoughts?

I think wakey should share with you

I think you, like every other non Cas or Wakey fan, has glossed over the one key issue that is preventing a groundshare - that is location.

I'm not to worried about us sharing, but the thing is our stadium is a good distance along so I don't see the point of scrapping it just to start again somewhere else.
Now if Wakey were willing to play at the Glasshoughton site then fine.

If anyone wants to back up there claim with cold hard cash i know a bookie who will take the bet, who's ground will be built and opened first Wakie or Cas.

50 squid anyone?

Just out of interest how confident were you that thornes park would be a succes before it went t!ts up?

So we've gone from a question asked out of interest to petty squabbling once more.....ironic really considering you opened with(please can we not have this turn in to a slagging match- genuine question) '"

not very as WMDC were involved, as you will find out with j32.

Nice attempt to call peoples bluff, but surely after the Thornes park episode you'd learn to be a bit more cautious and wait until planning permission has been granted at the very least especially when you've accused your own club as being as transparent as mud.

J30 has council involvment with the land being loaned (same as us) doenst it?

not squabbling, just seen the chance to make the easiest 50 quid of my life!!!

how come people on your bod are not as confident as you?
