The only way we are going to get fans to that number and have that kind of experience up north is if RFL take the game to freeview channels that are free for people to watch and more games are aired. Is it as simple as that? not quite as apparently people in the sport dont want pay cuts - who would? so we keep grabbing SKYs money but with no real growth of the sport from my experience as a fan.

If it's decided to stay at Belle Vue I would imagine they've worked out the funding and release plans accordingly. Is there still a stadium meeting this month?

A meeting at end of month according to MC in League Express.
Interestingly he states Belle Vue his preferred option and that approach had been made to Bank of Ireland re. purchase of ground.
Also council willing to make land available for parking.

Wow, very generous of them...

..as long as we don't complain when they approve Cas' planning permission and then agree to make that a community stadium???

Cynical I know, but that's how this whole process makes me feel.

So long as Wakefield council don't give any financial aid to Cas, and approve their planning permission on it's merit then where's the problem, if they have the finances in place to build a new ground without council help then surely that's an obstacle out of our way with regards to getting extra help from the council.

I agree with all of that, I guess I'm just cynical that that is the way it will actually happen.
