That's the spirit, presumably you personally financed the KCOM, where you sit with your smug demeanor mocking the murky underbelly of professional R.L.

Give the club a break, & how do you think the supporters feel? Week after week visiting a crumbling relic watching a team constantly punching above their weight, seeing them win the square root of sod all, year after year.

Fingers crossed I say, it's about time something positive was on the horizon.

Looks good but I'll believe it when I see it. If it was built I just wonder how they are going to fill it though. Woeful Wakefield has a support base of less than 5,000 these days. Only visiting support in the local derby with a rampant Castleford or a powerful Leeds team, and maybe a successful Hull FC or Hull KR could ever hope to fill it.

I won't be coming all the way from Carcassonne, nor certainly from Bangkok where I am now, unless terrific Toulouse is playing there.

Terrible Toulouse have played at beautiful Belle View, were you there?
For reference they got beat by the Wakefield team that just scraped through the MPG that year

Oh it all makes sense now, I always thought your name was Jean (as in French male name), no you're Chorley Jean (female), I've seen your show at that club just off Silom Road, you know near the Patpong night market, jesus that was a disturbing show I saw with all those ping pong balls, still got a bruise on my forehead and where did that snake crawl from..? O.O

I think you could forgive anyone, Wakefield fan or otherwise, from taking a "I'll believe it when I'm stood in it" mentality. As the original poster said, this isn't the first "artists impression" for a Wakefield stadium we've all seen, but hopefully it's the last.

Good luck to Wakefield on the project, but I don't think anyone has a right to be offended if people think cynically about this announcement.

Are you talking merd again Jean ?
We all know that people stay away from BV because its a dump and we can still average 5/6000.

Therefore shiny new stadium = 10000 fans every game, simple maths really

It's not the cynical comments that offend, jeez I'm off the scale when it comes to "New Wakefield Ground Mk 5?"

It has more to do with how posters own clubs acquired "state of the art" facilities. If I were in the lucky position of watching my team in a shiny stadium, the last thing I would do is deride another clubs hopes of having a similar facility nor add a caveat that "it's probably just a ruse to save their bacon".

Will that now be the only Super League ground in Yorkshire where the opposition supporters wont be exposed to the elements?

Yep, if you exclude Hull, Hull K.R. & Huddersfield.

Stand where you want at Cas. Hull and Huddersfield tend to stand under roof in princess street stand.

They should just tell them that no matter what they will not be allowed to play in SL at their current unrenavated stadium in say 2020, then if it is not sorted by then they will either have to rent a ground or (if they cant even manage that) drop down to the championship

Same should go for Cas btw (joke that a professional ground isnt the full 100m long)

Too right, because that's why people go matches, well, maybe some people.



Joke Ground, joke club - I'm with you fella'

What about Leeds three stands? It's just cos it's big innit.

Thank you for your input. You obviously haven't been taking notice of what has been said for a while now. Do try to keep up.
