| You need to stay strong here Wakey fans.
Firstly, this hasn't been announced officially - the Daily Star has got loads of stories wrong recently so I would hold fire a bit until the truth comes out or simply doesn't materialise.
Secondly, if the news of TS to Salford is true and like some posters have said it could be the start of the fire-sale. Aiton to Rhino's, Kirmond to Salford and Amor to Hull could be next. If this happens and WTW fans simply walk away from the club you will be playing straight into the hands of the RFL who are looking at the possibility of a 12 team SL in 2014 (not 2015). If you can make it to the start of the 2013 season (like London are trying to do) you have a fighting chance. You need to stick with your club.
Good luck - Tigerade.

| There is no question of walking away for me. I'll be surprised if Smith leaving causes that.
If the rest go it would make people unhappy but I'd hope Smith going means we don't have to.

| Is it just me who thinks life would be simpler and a little more honest if we did drop out of Super League??
Is it really all that?
I said it at franchise time and nothing's changed for me. I would look forward to trips to Batley, Sheffield etc

| Going to Newmarket while playing in the championship would be a disaster so hope we have got something good up our sleeve. Think there needs to be a statement at least today. If the press have printed a none story they need to rubbish it but if true a few explanations are needed.

| As long as we have a long term vision and plan for our club I will be happy and I know this includes Newmarket which will make Wakefield Trinity RLFC easier to run as a business. If this happens we will be a strong club rather than plodding on with no plan at all just hoping we stay in top division

| Next season could well be our last in superleague, get a season ticket and support the club, we aren't glory supporters, yes we are all angry how we get shafted time and time again, but its not like we haven't been through this before.

Playing championship RL at Belle Vue would be a disaster, if we were playing at Newmarket we wouldn't be playing in the championship for long with the new format we'd be back up

| I know it's unlikely but if we got Fages on the return route and bought an actual stand off we wouldn't be so much worse off.
It looks bad but I'll wait and see what finished team looks like before crying too much about it.

| Once in the championship not as easy to get back in superleague just ask one of the clubs that have been knocking on the doors for years and had better stadia than us.

If we are in the championship Newmarket will not happen. The funds earmarked in the 106 agreement will be diverted to other projects that WMDC will prefer.

I doubt Fages will be going anywhere.
