There are still far too many foreign players in the UK and i dont see this stopping, an easy way to get more youngsters in teams is to cut the quota, no need to stop P+R. franchising is apartheid simple as, i recently applied for a grant to Sport England for Selby Warriors, one of the questions was "does your organisation exclude any groups" if yes the grant is not for you. The irony to this question is the chairman of sport England is our own Richard Lewis, the man at the head of RL the organisation that excludes over half the clubs in the country from its top flight.
All the RFL are doing with the licencing system is paying lip service to the fans and championship clubs, at the next round they will pick the teams THEY want in just like they did last time, no matter what grades teams get. I would think more of them if they just did that instead of putting clubs through a very expensive and time consuming process

We're not AC Wakey, they're not Inter Castleford. We're two different clubs representing two different areas. Why do people constantly drag up inappropriate examples from different sports, different circumstances and different cultures to try and justify crowbaring Cas and Wakey together?

I remember reading somewhere that the Stanley site is about 3.5miles from both population centres - an ideal location if a ground share ended up being the only way.

Until bricks are actually being laid, as opposed to shat then we are both (Cas & Wakey) at risk.

And how much from the sale of your ground you putting in the pot???

Wakefield council arent paying for the stadium

Aren't they putting any money into either stadium at all? If not, they will still need to give them planning permission won't they?

there will be some money input for the baths i believe, but basically it will be a private initiative, Outline planning is in place and the final design will be rubber stamped,
