Quote: Egg Chasing "Just because he owns my club doesn't mean I have to agree with everything he says.

Pretty sure he thinks every club should have reserve and academy sides, he just thinks we should only have 1 division similar to the NRL. (I think that's his belief anyway)'"


It would be interesting to know what happens to the clubs who are not granted elite academy status.
Will they still be permitted to compete in the top flight post the much talked about re structure or, is there some kind of bold plan which the masses are not privy to ?

Robin Park Arena is not for the sole use of WRL and is not owned, in any way, shape or form, by WRL.

It's a tenancy.

You used it to take the P out of Cas and Wakey, saying "your" training facility was better than those clubs first team grounds.

All your facilities are rented.

Is that another way of paying rent?.

No - that's the bills.

The rent they pay is separate.

Quote: Pumpetypump "It may well be frustrating, but its not difficult to see why that will have taken hold. You get promoted after winning the 1998 Division 1. The next year Hunslet win it and get told they are ineligible for promotion due to their ground. The following year Dewsbury win it and get told the same thing. So either your ground was good enough, or you promised to make it so. You are saying it's the former. I don't know which is true, that's why I was asking.'"


you go back a long time icon_biggrin.gif

So do I, but my take on this is Superleague did not want two clubs in Leeds, and didn't want a "Small club" either but wanted a city club with a good history.....

At that time SL did not know Wakey council would not be supportive of their top footy club, or that Wakey would be shafted on Newmarket.

As for a promise to make Belle Vue good enough to be in SL, well SL seems to accept it's good enough and have done for 20 years?...........

Quote: dboy "
WRL do not own a single blade of grass fit to host SL rugby league.

Of course, I'd still prefer that to what we do have (though one day, being tenants will come to haunt clubs like Hudds, Wigan & Hull FC).'"


Tremendous point.

Maybe SL should only accept clubs who own their own ground??

Wakefield make every effort they can to improve the ground, it makes sense to do so as it was said at the time a better ground would mean better finances and a stable club.

Carter has improved the ground best he can and continues to do so, and he keeps the finances in decent shape too.

Aren't Salford at risk of collapse because they do not own the ground??

This Wakey bashing is really silly..... Go bash Salford.....
