I think you're right - it's a little bit like the top football club s wanted to do recently.-think about themselves only.
Perhaps it's time for a split

| I have supported Trinity since 1975 in that time I have seen more promises and false dawns regarding stadium development than I care to remember. Always someone else’s fault never the fact the club has been badly run for the vast majority of the last 50 years present owner excluded.
It’s never going to happen! It’s never going to happen at Castleford either Featherstone Rovers despite being in the lower league since 1996 have put both clubs to shame in that time!
The only way forward if we don’t want to see all 3 clubs die a slow death in the amateur competition outside super league is to put old rivalries apart pool limited recourses and merge all 3 clubs in a community stadium the Wakefield 5 towns can be proud of.
Time to get out of the Stone Age and move forward because at this rate all three clubs will go under!

| Wow, djcool is right about thing any development @ new market to works completed @ Belle Due etc, do not say it cannot be done, asda were tied to building a road first in order to build a supermarket ! But & a big But, the council wanted it & therefore ensured it
Happened !!!!
With regard to SL 1 & other lower clubs, Sky hold all the dictat by tightening financial controls, lowering monies knowing no other
Broadcaster will come near their deal, they have us on the cheap tied by our fear of no monies at all.
By the way no one will touch SL \2 as there will be fewer viewers similarly to the football trying a deal for the championship etc.
The four clubs that go down, then any of those fans who have sky sports WILL cancel, just as I will/ would.
10 teams playing 18 games is 10 games short of the 28 games clubs say they need now for funds from spectators ?
That means playing each other 3 times & four if you count cup games ! Neutral will not watch that & will say, what's the point ?

| Going back to the stadium- Am I missing something here.I thought the developers had agreed to fund at least the new east stand, dependant on them getting one of their projects passed.I remember John Minards saying he was peed off with a lack of progress, but are we now saying they are trying to wriggle out of it.Because if that was the case we should be calling them out.

I don't know where posters on here get their information from, I assume it's their guess as to what the situation is regarding the ground, otherwise surely they'd qualify and evidence what they were saying?
If the previous posts are true and there is some concern as to progress, you say we should be calling them out - I think it should be WMDC who should be calling them out, because their involvement in this whole affair has been absolutely disgraceful.
The last council leader, in particular and the present one should hang their heads in shame, BUT they are not the whole council, what about the councillors who sit in the chamber with them , they are party to it as well.
Perhaps it's time for a mass protest to our local councillors to demand that they do the job they were voted in to do and make these developers stick to the deal and threaten them with legal action if they don't?

| Fair comment 1315.I would say that the only thing we can do at present is be directed by the BOD.We are all speculating until John M gives us the lowdown.

No. Just the usual pointless what's happening with the stadium question somewhere in the back pages.

| My thinking if we can ever get her to be present at one of our marquee games n handing a cup over it will be the biggest boost this games has had in years ,never mind if your pro royal or not ,we’ve never had somebody with this high profile ,and still people moan ,and then wonder why the sport is in decline .

None whatsoever but you'd be excused for thinking there was from the amount of speculation on here, which is frankly ridiculous.
They say no news is good news, rubbish, no news is no news, it's as simple as that, anything else is just gossip.

Now that has been commented on by MC I believe. From memory due to installation issues it can't be done during the season as it will damage the pitch or something like that.

Yes they we're having access issues with it been right on the corner where the ally way goes up the back of ground like you I recall MC saying they might have to access it from the pitch which then can't be done till end of season
