In answer to one of your questions I would have walked away long ago were I in your position but thankfully for everyone I am not.
I wish you all the luck in the world but in all honesty I have resigned myself to a negative result from your and many others hard work and as far as WTW goes I fear we are on borrowed time as a whole.
I am sorry for being so negative but that is all I see at the moment.'"
Understood! There is a challenge in front of us for sure, but we will keep going.
The difference in the 2 posts is that you have at least reasoned yours! |

Where do you think the club should play out of - given that we are likely to have to leave BV?
How would you generate interest in the club from fans / investors - with no money?
These type of comments make me laugh really. So easy to type 2 words, so little though or conscience behind them. And this is from one of our own - no, really, he is! ![]()
The opening post had me thinking here we go again. I'm not a Mod so I couldn't lock the topic, thereby saving page after page of supposition and speculation. Thought my short and succinct reply would do the job. Page 2 already means I failed miserably.

Don't see the need to lock the topic - we always try and tell what we can when asked and it is natural for people to want to know what is happening - for reasons already stated above.
'Its dead' says a bit more than 'please close this thread'!

TRB, you mention that if NM is dead so is BV, can you put any meat on those bones?

Yeah - simple really - its the same money - if we cant get it then it wont be a choice of which - it will be neither!
We need to conjure up a small fortune to buy BV - and then a much bigger one to do it up! |

A ground share is the only way forward I think, I would rather support WTW in someone else's stadium than not have WTW to support at all.....
this is just my opinion and I hope I am proved wrong by either stopping at BV or getting NM resurrected.

A ground share will just prolong agony, hardly any fans turn up to watch Trinity at BV, how many do you think will turn up with them playing at another teams home ground? |

Simple question for you, are you optimistic that sufficient money will be found to fund either location, because if your optimism does not match your passion and commitment, then your rant at Wollo who was either making a sarcastic reply to the OP or stating his opinion to which he is entitled to was unwarranted. |

We have always believed that we have moral right.
We intend to prove we have technical right.
In the meantime we continue to talk to all parties.
Yes - I believe we will get a suitable result out of this process, but that is my opinion. |

A ground share situation would kill us. Share with who? The only option for ground share is to move out of the city. The team may move but the fans won't! |

Ground share would be the death of the club as far as I am concerned. I for one will not travel out of Wakefield - can you imagine sharing GH? God forbid -NEVER!

Lets have something else to get down about. Ground share may well be the only option in the short term and I suggest that we should look at all options. The first thing on the agenda needs to be to get the team performances right and get a few wins under our belt. Maybe then take a few games on the road at more than one venue.

The only way in which a groundshare becomes truly acceptable is where it is a short time limited move to facilitate either an upgrade of existing or a new build.
Moving away with no long term plan is dangerous and risks the 'Swinton' effect.
Moving in with Cas would involve playing out of GH, and as the ground is being gifted to them, we would be rent paying tenants. No thank you!
Fev in Fev, Cas in Cas, Wakey in Wakey! Full stop. The end.
