As opposed to the last ten years where fully pro RL has been a rousing success in the district.

Yeah, they only have liquidation because not even Richard Wright is stupid enough to merge a team on the up with a team worth nothing at all, losing fans in the process! |

£2million might make him more co operative. Plus it guarantees Glasshoughton and takes away any competition. |

Glasshoughton is guaranteed anyway, planning will be a doddle and contrary to what Wakey fans want to tell you funding IS there, and Wakey aren't exactly competition, are they?
Wright doesn't even want a ground share, never mind a merger  |

Add in the guarantee of another SL license and it looks more attractive |

Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

Sorry? Where do you live? In the WF6 area? If not then you wouldn't have an idea about how much RL has had an effect around this area. |

unfortunately for you, the relative size of the crowds to the town you are in matters not one jot to the bank manager, nor to the wage demands of players, nor to the cost of suppliers.
In fact, in all but petty attempts at point scoring it is a meaningless and useless bit of trivia.
And relative to other clubs, your crowds arent 'amazingly high'.
A merger would give the club the opportunity to target another 6k RL fans we know exist in Wakfield, plus all the prospective fans Wakefield would be targeting, it means you dont have competition which is literally only one junction down the motorway cannibalising your market, it means you get about £2 million, and it pretty much guarantees you a license. |

How about the "meaningless" bit of triva as Cas were one of only 3 teams last year to make a profit? |

That might matter to the bank manager and suppliers etc (the suppliers know they will get paid and what not), it also shows that out of 14 teams in the league - only 3 are run well enough to make a profit and one of those are supposedly one of the "weaker" teams. |

one who doesnt spend the full salary cap.
Do you have any evidence of their profit, a cursory google doesnt seem to bring anything up, and in a franchise year you would expect them to be shouting it from the roof tops. |

It does though doesnt it? We have no problems financially and when we get that stadium up we will be guarenteed a licence. Rugby League doesn't have a lot of money in it, so therefore I have no worries whatsoever. |
