I only ask the latter question as I've read a YEP, or Wakey express interview with CB saying they'd take their argument to a judicial review, I can't for the life of me find the article though.

I thought it was just about Newcold, could be wrong though. I think if that was the case i personally feel it would be pointless though as i think the time has come to accept that Newmarket just isn't going to get built in time under the present agreement. That trigger point will never be passed. We need to find a halfway house that works for both sides otherwise we are screwed and they know it. But if they want to make money out of this stadium they need us to be a competitive superleague side so it is in their interest not to nail us to the ground as well. Just get around the table and make the damn thing happen.

I wonder how much the extra streams of income, such as food and drink sold on match day are. The last owners of the club paid for other company's provide the services, but it was found out not to be in the clubs best interest. So I can see why they would want to retain these income streams

Taking a simple exam, at Warrington they sell a can of John Smiths, that probably wholesales at 50p, for £4, and pour it into a plastic glass. Even with overheads, maybe looking at a quid a glass. I bet you can sell a thousand a game. Not everyone drinks John Smiths, of course, but plenty of people drink more than one. That's £40,000 profit a season just on John Smiths, which is probably a salary for a young player showing promise.

Yes, I would have said about the same their Slugger.

Add in though too food and hot drinks, you could be looking at more.

In one of Hull KRs bars, they have slot machines too

I Wonder if we could get other supporter Clubs from other clubs to join us in any future action?

We used to have one and apparently didn't we pay a player once from it!

Sir RW who spearheads the new Trust named "Wakefield Community Stadium Charitable Trust" has said in his latest interview re the new Stadium that leading business figures and Lawers have been appointed. He then goes on to say "i'm hoping that we can make real progress,start building later in the year and get it in use as soon as possible"

Not sure on that TBH Tricky.

Going back to revenue streams briefly, I was in a discussion the other week on a forum page on FB, comparing revenues in SL to NRL. Away from the sponsorship and advertising deals that are bigger than ours, they make a lot of money from casinos and gaming etc.

I spoke to a mate of mine who has strong links with Penrith, and their memberships clubs has about 1000 slots. That is food for thought as to how much that brings in.

Not sure but wasnt the Wakefield Theatre Club initially intended for something similar.I was a 70s child so not old enough to elaborate there on the history of it.

Maybe something central to the city would have worked better

Prior to it becoming the Wakefield Theatre Club it was the Wakefield Trinity Social Club. I was only young myself so you can see know long ago it was bu I recall that it was supposed to be like the Aussie League Clubs with slots and gambling but I think it was prevented by the gaming laws at the time. It failed and was sold and became the Theatre Club.

It would seem that Del'boy was right and a good judge of character "Rodney, what a Plonker"

I've heard Walker, Box and YC are now being known as...

Cocking up new Trinity stadium...
