Getting to the brick laying stage though is pretty far down the path to getting a new ground there is a hell of a lot needs doing before getting close to that stage.

I agree with those who don't think that it should be needed to have a new stadium to get a franchise point but at the same time I can see why that is included and why it is important for grounds to be modern as much as I love going to the "traditional" grounds.

promises did fine last time

A smug Hudds fan revelling in other clubs who have not been as fortunate as they have...

Cast your mind back only a few short years and your club were in a very similar position to those clubs you now mock.

I just love the atmosphere at the Jungle, you are really close to the pitch and the Cas fans are always noisy. I just hope the new stadium replicates that.

If you have read any of my posts on Franchising and Huddersfield Smug would not be a description. We still have a lot to do particularly in having a solid attendance figures and some consistency on the field.

What i find concerning is all the promises by some clubs and no delivery if the game of RL is to move on then we need clubs to deliver.

If they cannot deliver then the chance should go to someone else. the Giants included.

Still think you should build a ground a share it bit like Milan do.

I mean your grounds are about 6 miles apart. stick it in Normanton and bobs your uncle. Makes perfect sense

wakefield need to be very careful. if they don't make moves to get along with cas, there may come a day when they knock on the castleford door asking about a ground share and no one will answer.

i really don't see the problem, if wire didn't have the HJ and someone said ground share in burtonwood with widnes i would take that.

it would save both clubs a lot of time effort and money

they need to make some decisions rllike a bossrl

The community trust stadium is planned for Stanley which is in the middle of the WMDC thats why it's been situated there. The Community trust will build not just a stadium but sports science college and other facilities for the benefit of the whole area. The cas stadium is apparantly privately funded just for cas. Good luck to them I hope both stadiums go ahead and we can both concentrate on playing Rugby League.

Around 12 years!

When you came into SL there were promises about improving your facilities. 10 years on it is a shambles.

All clubs recognise the need to have better facilities

Not sure a ground share will help too much re a SL licence.

2 clubs in the same stadium is hardly 'extending the franchise'.
