Quote: wakeyrule "If I was a major European city wanting to join the RL merry-go-round I'd look to entice one of the big teams that is regularly messed about by a soccer team they share a stadium with. Id start with Wigan, then Hull, then Huddersfield. Of the three, Hudds look to be the most likely success - their teams in decline, their crowds are poor and IF the soccer team get promoted then they'll want first dibs on all stadium issues.'"
But it requires the desire of the club owner to move. I doubt Ken Davey would be too interested. MC might be, because he can't see a future ahead because of the ground issue. Having awkward fixtures isn't quite the same as having a ground the RFL won't allow in Super League.
The difference will be about the branding.
Let's say we move to Bristol. Is it Bristol Trinity with the same badge? That is, a name and badge that are all about Wakefield, not Bristol, or is it really MC investing in a club a long way from home that will have council and RFL backing and closing down his Wakefield operation?
