Quote: TRB "No they are not! 2 top level RL sides will not succeed long term based out of one stadium. IMO of course! The dark forces within the game would ultimately want just one entity.'"

I think he was being purposely inflammatory! icon_biggrin.gif
Anyway cas have sold WR for all the tea in china, and are well on the way to securing their GH future, so won't need to come with the begging bowl and use our NM. Don't you know???? icon_wink.gif

Quote: snowie "I can see the interest of them playing from the same stadium to make the concept of Newmarket work but it would have to be separate from Trinity, I would be fuming if a football club killed our club off

does anyone know the value of the club and what will happen to the ground on Eastmoor Road.'"


Wakefield FC only rented down at College Grove therefore it's worth nothing to them. They've started building another hockey pitch on the old rugby/football.

Once a Sandal Wild Cat always a Sandal Wild Cat. Some talk of Bradford Northern and some of Hull and Leeds Of Wigan and St Helens and such great teams as these Of all the teams in Rugby league with me you will agree The best team in the whole wide world is Wakefield Trinity!

All the more reason to bring WFC back to BV.
Then take them with when we move to Newmarket.

Forget Cas. After all the fuss over th years I'm actually now wishing the WDCT had pushed for some kind of 'RL monopoly' on NM. e.g Part of our 100 year tenancy would include an agreement no other (top flight, if nothing else) RL club could also play there.

This would go against the community stadium mentality, but would protect the independence of our club & the use of the city name.
CT have never taken NM seriously, they've made their beds, let them sleep in them!

I suppose I was.

Having said that, I firmly believe that Cas will eventually have no choice but to ask to share NM; the chances of them getting GH off the ground within the franchise period are, imo, slim to none.

I quite agree, although I hope we are both wrong.
The reason I did the poll on both sites a few weeks back was based on that premise and the RFL invoking their new (beat wakey and cas!!) rule.
I think they are just starting to run into the problems we did, obviously tgre are similarities and differences with both plans, but I think they are now further behind than we may have thought, say six months since.
It seems the further you progress with these things the more problems you encounter and the longer things take, wether this will turn out to be a problem for cas, or wether they have an ace up their sleeves still who knows.
On balance we have yet to get our yes yet either, and I've given up trying to guess the outcome.............

Tweet from Mr Glover:
"Peter Matthews from Wakefield FC has just spoken very well about the joint support for Newmarket. We in Wakefield all need to get behind it."
https://twitter.com/#!/andrewGlover1

Wakefield FC now join us in JOINT support for Newmarket!
Great news!

I had always hoped they would join us, this is exactly what the city/stadium needs. A football team would be great for Wakefield and to have them at Newmarket makes the site even more viable in terms of footfall & economics, not to mention providing a brilliant stage to grow BOTH brands, both proudly sporting the city's name!

As far as the future of WFC goes I hope they can enlist the help of SRW & build the brand.

So what happened at this meeting?

Is Wakefield FC now part of Newmarket was it stated that they will play out of Newmarket if it goes through?

I think initially it would be taking advantage of the potential training facilities on offer. Perhaps playing out of the stadium may be a little too much of a burden at this stage of their development, but if they ever made it to the football league then i'm sure they will come on board.

Reading some of the stuff a mate of mine who follows non-league football sent me about Wakefield FC, they'll be lucky to make it to next week, never mind the football league. The main problem seems to be a real lack of identity and a place to call their own.

Article here, for anyone who's interested:

That's how I understood it as well. Basically Wakefield FC were saying that they used to have 7 or 8 teams playing out of College Grove but now because the football pitch has gone at CC they've only got the first team left. If they can use Newmarket then they can re-start these teams. It all ties in with the Trinity community plan to get more people involved with sport.

I also wouldn't be surprised if they used the pitch with 1 stand to play the matches on.

Only the 1st team and reserves regularly played on the CG pitch, the rest played on the pitches over the road and up by Pinderfields. The other teams only used the changing facilities and rarely at that.

With only sponsorship money and gate receipts they found it hard to afford to play out of CG. How they expect to pay for any of the facilities at NM I haven't a clue.

its what is required for the stadium to be a success, more than one club using it.
in fact it would be the idea solution to have both Wakefield club share it rather than guiseley fc

Just as a aside,should we consider the playing surface if everything falls into place at NM,Remember last time we had the round ball at BV it almost destroyed the best playing surface in the league,no firm opinion myself other than obviously don't like to see any wakefield team fall by the wayside,just being devil's advocate eusa_think.gif

Which adds weight to the idea of an artificial pitch as at Widnes.
