As Wakefield fan who's commented, I'm not seeing what you're seeing at all, Wakey v York rivalry where do get that from, the wound up thing is down to it being on VT . It seems some Wakefield fans feel that the RFL should/could do more maybe. I think the issue resonates with Wakey fans more, is down to the stadium issues/Council being unhelpful and the promised Community Stadium that's gone on for that long, it's been the man reason that York are no more.

By the way there's a topic on this on the Wakey forum if your confused why some Wakey fans are upset about potentially losing a RL club.

Whre the hell do you get rivalry - sympathy yes - think you need to re-read the thread,

These people are never wrong - they are like the "EU remain" people who want referendum after referendum until they finally brow beat people into seeing it their way. On here it's just endless debates with millions of sub quotes taken out of context and treated to spurious facts and conjecture. Then if all else fails they will name call, not heat of the moment stuff like bell end but real cutting stuff (in their eyes) like ludite or worse northerner. In the end you have to make your point and walk away and live a life these people clearly don't have because as I say they are never wrong and they never ever get bored of telling you so.

Well that means I know a f[iu[/ick load more about the situation involving my club than you do.

But then a lack of insight or knowledge has never stopped you in the past.

Wow, some wild unfounded outrage on this thread...

York have folded because of their poisonous, greed fuelled owner. He went into training on Thursday night and told everyone they were suddenly free agents. The RFL stepped in straight away - before the former owner even left the room, nearly with a black eye - to calm everyone down and tell everyone what was going to happen next.

The RFL have been absolutely fantastic too, and continue to be so. They are in the process of setting up a newco in order for the new club to see out the season. Head Coach James Ford and the vast majority of his squad are signing for the new club. The only shame is that they cannot be promoted this year.

This will allow any interested parties - and there's a few - to build a strong, minimum 3yr business plan knowing exactly what league they're going to be in next year to start. The RFL will then hand over the club to the strongest bidder, and everyone is happy!

City of York council, while far from perfect, have done nothing wrong here. The former owner engineered the situation to try and make him out to be the victim, like he always has. Thankfully everyone has now seen his true colours.

Good to hear and I hope it all comes good for York in the end. Shame about all the efforts of the players this season & not getting their chance at promotion. I thought there must been a way that York can finish the season off with a bit of help. I know that a few York fans think getting rid of the owner might be the best thing to happen to York.

That's really good to hear, and it's also good to hear the change of ownership is in the works. A couple of questions .

Will York be travelling to Toulouse next week?

is Guilford still the owner? if so I understand why they are in the , the guys a crook

Well they are technically a newco now, and they have to start from the bottom, just like Toronto really. If they finish in a promotion spot, then almost certainly 11th place in the Championship will be saved.

York will be in Toulouse next week yeah.



WAS the owner Tad, he's finally gone now!

ah that's good news then. lets hope things get better

Excellent news for RL.

I'm afraid you are wrong. The RFL are a joke & a disgrace. I've read it on here countless times.

I'm assuming this means York can get promotion now if they're sold as opposed reformed?
