When Wakey went up in 98 they got no money from super league so the then 2nd tier clubs gave Wakey some of there money from the sky contract in return Wakey would stand up for P+R. Wakey took the money and went back on there word voting to stop P+R

We went up in 1998 and P & R stopped in 2008 that's 10 years were c c sides could be promoted. You correct we didn't get full sky money for 2 season which happened to no other club when promoted. Back on topic anyway I sure I read NM would be 12k minimum or 15k if the community trust had enough funds for the corners

Jeez your one fickle fan, last year you were trying to rub Cas fans noses in it on a daily basis now your whole world has collapsed.

Well you're wrong as ever. What division we are in or what crowds we get will not stop Yorkcourt building the Stadium they planned for - they too see long term and they also need it to get planning permission anyway.

You just have to look in a 10 mile radius to see two clubs who gained new stadiums when they and their partner clubs were not top flight and had gates nowhere near capacity. Doncaster and Huddersfield. Only one out of those four is top flight and none of them hit capacity on anything like a regualra basis. Yet both stadiums were built.

Richardson and the gang may well have, not the fault of the Wakey fans mate.

It'll be payback time soon from the Cas fans and who can blame them after some of the stuff posted on there.

On topic Newmarket will run as planned.

We're nearing reality, i can't wait for NM

I don't see whats so fickle about my opinions, I've always accepted that Newmarket was a chance event.



You don't know if I'm wrong do you, your just hoping everything turns out well in the end. Thats what Ted did and look where it got us. Is there really anything cast iron to say that York Court have to build a SL standard size stadium or is there?

The whole system of franchise selection has changed. If the chances of us coming back up appear to be slim what need is there to invest in a larger stadium. Just look at Leigh a nice big ground that really is not needed considering the chances of them ever playing SL are slim ( under the present system).

as i see it the plans submitted in the application make belle vue super league standard whereas "the jungle" isnt..so cas's application is flawed...don't really care anymore tho as long as jk leaves...last year catalans and this year cas...how much he must love wakefield!

Except Wakefield have also submitted a signed 5 year tenancy agreement for the club to play out of Oakwell until Newmarket is ready.

The RFL have asked the club NOT to vacate Wakefield and go to Barnsley so the club also submitted plans to temporarily upgrade Belle Vue, they also submitted proof of funding for the upgrade and a report from the WMDC planning office which confirmed the upgrade was doable.

Small matter of a Planning Public Inquiry first

Anyone heard anything about Peter Box gatecrashing Wakefield's meeting with Savilles and fighting Castlefords corner?

No, do tell.
