Next season can't be any worse on the field, off the field though, there are worries. As for promoting the club Snowie, that was never my aim, my aim was to show that its not been a bed of roses with 1 poor season..

If Cas Tigers were to play at Newmarket that would suggest we would have sold Wheldon Road which we haven’t. That would also suggest we would then become one of the richest clubs in RL which also couldn’t be farthest from the truth.

Cas need to look at the business model they have. The ground needs some little bits doing but most of all they need to get a team playing well together.

The cas fans will keep watching games just like wakey fans do if the effort is there. After speaking to some of the cas fans i work with and watching a couple of games. The players seem uniterested and played with no effort.

I think on the field they are putting together a better squad than they have had for the lasst couple of seasons but is it going to be off field issues that affect the club?

They look like they don't want to play for Millward. Time for him to go. I never thought I would say it but - [size=150bring Kear in for a season.[/size

So what exactly are the rumours, I work in Cas but can't say I've heard anything.

Various - Administration, the end, drop down to NL1, merge, fold, move to Newmarket and so on and so forth.

As I've said all along, their best option would be to flog WR, pay off their debts, trouser the remaining funds and move into NM with a healthy cash reserve; I still believe that's what will happen.

I think we would drop out of SL first. Moving to NM would be the begginning of the end IMO.

That would be the most dramatic and ridiculous example of cutting ones nose off to spite ones face but yes, I suppose it's an option.

I think under RW you may well have done that, he was at the end of his tenure and had his ego to protect; defiant to the valiant end!!
Ferres and France (if involved) would have a very different view, so i would expect e change in tack to the constant talking up of the situation (a la RW) to a more honest approach.
Its then up to the fans to get on board and see where it takes you.

As a Wakefield fan it has been pretty sad to see that local rivalry has now become more vindictive. This year as a club the way we build up the match at ours caused friction and I think the game itself should create this not with the board adding fuel to the fire. But that has been done to death.

Moving forward the only thing we need to look at is how to make rugby league in the Wakefield district stronger. This area has been a hot bed for quality rugby players, Westwood, Burrows, Ellis etc.

The teams Wakefield, Cas ,Fev don't have the glamour of the big clubs and we also don't have the population. So we need to stand together. Really what does it matter what the stadium is called "Wakefield District Stadium" seems appropriate this doesn't mean that it is Wakefield's or Cas's but it is for teams in the Wakfield district. If this gives the three team mentioned a better chance of top flight lets not be too precious.

It maybe that Richard Wright fought against this but the boards of the teams need to be grown up and work together. Three team paying rent may help avoid the trouble Salford seem to be in. The boards of the three teams mentioned need to talk to each other and leave there egos at home and let thier head rule their hearts.

I will always enjoy beating Cas but don't want to see them drop down or fold. If both team can find something toegether that can help with the limited finances or improve the prospects for both clubs let do it. If Fev think that playing in this stadium can help great too.

Richard Wright created some of this due to his ego but let move on and forward for the good of Wakefield district.

Name of the stadium? It really doesn't matter. Who gets the high ground by whose stadium was it first going to be? It really doesn't matter. Will the clubs benefit with attendances and chance of playing in the top tier? It does matter. Will sharing a stadium stop the situation at Salford with sharing stadiums cost? That does matter.

Merger? No thanks we are two proud individual clubs.
