I agree with this man, but not Headingley ! |

| Quote: Gaslight "I honestly don't see why current fans would be opposed to such an idea, yes it will be different at first but the older fans who are set in there ways will have to accept that a merged club will be far better on AND off the pitch and with both clubs pooling together their best resource - the youth systems then it's a super power in the making and at either J30 or 32 I'd expect to be seeing 10k+ crowds, the name doesn't need to mention CASTLEFORD or WAKEFIELD so fans can't say "well I'm not going to watch *insert city/town name*".
But my opinions on why I think a merger would work might be unrepresentative because I've probably been to just as many Wakey games as Cas ones and don't have a particulaly "strong" attachment to say no way in hell should there be a merger.'"
This pre-supposes that the clubs would only merge their best assetts, unfortunately both clubs have a mountain of problems and I can see those coming too!!! |

Are you asking me to describe to you the difference between two parties creating a joint venture in which they each hold a 50% stake but retain the existing organisations; and a merger which results in one organisation from the merged assets of the other two? Is it that difficult a concept to grasp? |

The answer to a merger is a resounding no, the only possibility is for a shared ground, at least in the short term, so let's forget all the silly merger talk, unless of course Wakey are talking of merging with Dewsbury or even the flat cappers maybe?Then I could agree with it.
