With Huddersfield. Play out of Newmarket, they double there spectator base instantly and we get a sugar daddy.
Merge the names, combine Wake(field) with (Hudders)field and waddya got ? WAKEFIELD...


WILD(cats)(gi)ANTS !? Newmarket = The Anthill. As a concept it's got legs

Might have been worth it to see the Smith/Chase combo at the club.

Fev.
Funnily enough whilst walking the dog tonight I was wondering if Trinity were no more who I could possibly follow.
Only one club ,Fev .I am a Sharlstoner, and both my grandads were Fev supporters, but my dad Wakefield.
Could even manage a merger based at Featherstone rather than spend the rest of my years going through what we have at the moment ...again.
Even think this time is even worse than the end of the Ted era as we all thought things were really on the up.
I will hold my hand up and say I was taken in by the Elston radio Leeds interview.
I suppose that anyone who knows me will say I an forthright and straight.
Unfortunately not everyone is the same.
Depressed. Time for another Glenlivet.

Now we'll see it on the other side of the pennines

It only ever raises it's ugly head when one of us is in the mire.

Pointless discussion. Let's face it, rivals or friends, this aint ever gonna happen, cos we both want to be top dogs, and that's what it should always be about, whether we play 5 miles away from each other or 500.

Not a pointless discussion.
After all these years of nothing I am open to change.
Want success for the district.
If at my age I can be progressive why can't you Rebel.

I wasn't stating my personal opinion as such, mate. It's just that there have been so many threads on this subject over the years, mostly dependent on who's doing well, and who's in the dumps, and nobody really ever agrees.

There's nothing to suggest that we'd be in a better position as clubs if we did merge... only the notion that we'd share a massive pool of talent. But that would mean nowt if no one came to watch, because they couldn't identify with the team, for one reason or another.

I don't see Cas lads as that different to us, broadly speaking. But you can't overlook the local rivalry that no one in the world seems to understand other than us, Cas and Fev.

If ever there was a time for all 3 Wakefield clubs to get round the table, it's now; none of us individually are wanted by SL, but together we'd be a different prospect and impossible to ignore.

Yep

How about wakefield rover tigers?

Your right, but boy it would take some selling to the masses
