| As the plot thickens regarding Mewmarket or Glasshoughton the majority of Wakey fans appear not to want a move to Glasshoughton,now i'm not in the know on this one but if Barnsley would have us which would you choose,Barnsley or GH?And why?

| I would choose Oakwell as a short-term measure, as if we go into Glasshoughton, we'll never get out (or go bust in there). If we moved to Oakwell until we could have a new home in Wakefield, I could live with that, but if it became permanent, I couldn't see myself supporting anymore. I support Wakefield's rugby club, not a limited company that shifts its headquarters.

| Temporary move to Oakwell makes far more sense to me. A bit of rugby league missionary work, so to speak, the chance of maybe picking up a few new fans, and then a return to Wakey and Newmarket.
I also have it on good authority that "you can buy anything in the world on Barnsley market".

| You have all obviously thought about the cost of this I presume. Our game against Saints cost 35k and with a crowd of 3200 it does not leave anything to the imagination who came out on top. Coupled to that there was no income from the bars or corporate facilities.
Glasshoughton will be a shared facility if this is the destination in all aspects of marketing and commercial receipts.The landlords will not be Cas and that's for sure.The same can be said if the destination is Newmarket.

It wasn't part of the question! I have no doubt you are right, but given a choice, if the figures can be made to work, it's a simple choice = Oakwell.

| Got to be Oakwell. Keep a unique identity.
Would hope that the cost would be reduced if we were there for a long period rather than just a one off game like the Saints one.
A minor plus is that it shafts Box's plans to use us to support his beloved Cas.

| Be careful about leaving WMDC lest SL suddenly come up with a new criterion around clubs having to be located within the council area their name relates to. That said there might be a way in by renaming yourself South Yorks something or other, if necessary absorbing Doncaster/Sheffield along the way. We would be happy to represent the whole of Wakefield, filling the void created by your self-imposed exile and mopping up Trinity fans our side of the city centre

Name change included then? Wakefield Tigers might just do it.
