£20m anyone?!

Anyhow licenses went out the window three years ago.

guys- once we move out of wakey we are not wakey anymore - so we will be shopped around - as long as our name has trinity in it go to the highest bidder-
sad sad sad it has come to this.

The bloke is a first class idiot.

I know for a fact that Licencing is coming back, and if anyone thinks that we will get one playing out of Dewsbury then you are mad. Clarke is a vulture however, he and his brother are a pair of monotoned boring Wiganites who think that they are RL Royalty. The whole sky team hate Wakefield, but tonight was a disgrace IMHO, who the hell is he to say we should sell our Licence if it comes to that,and to go on about the merger of 20 plus years ago, Phil stick to boring viewers to death with your uninteresting stats, and your constant bigging up of the Goons, and leave Wakefields business to MC

Has he suggested selling Wigan to the highest bidder? Used to have a bit of respect for Clarke -not anymore!!!

I agree.I cannot decipher what he says most of the time with his slurred speech and heavy accent.

From what I understand it wouldn't be sold but given away.

I stopped taking Phil Clarke seriously about 10 years ago. He's a prize prat.

I also think he slurs his words too Beagle.

With that, and the constant rubbish he talks, could he be half cut, maybe

Not making himself very popular in the WF region is he?

He talks like he's had a stroke.

When he comes out with sh it like this always remember he introduced the "swingometer" a few years since, nuff said.

I think he was trying to put the Bullets in the gun for the RFL to kick us out of SL by saying you cannot have a SL team playing out of a Championship Stadium.
This has gone on long enough now i think it's time we took some action ourselfs and let the whole world know what our Council has failed to do for it's local sporting area regarding a Community Stadium in what would have benefited all the local area.

He is obviously biased/ill informed as he does not balance his reporting by pointing out Carter has stated that bringing Dewsbury up to Superleague standards is not insurmountable.
Also you could argue having teams playing out of stadiums where RL is dictated to by football is highly unsatisfactory.

There is obviously something in the pipeline regarding restructuring of the game and licensing/ franchising appears to be it. The disrespect that we are viewed with makes my blood boil. I missed these lame brain comments but I did note that a Lancastrian big match was referred to as 'massive' by Eddie and Leeds v Wakefield was passed by as though it was unimportant in the same sentence. It's just little things one notices all the time. To be honest, if this is the way the game is going, daft franchises in crazy places, bubbles to the heartlands and long term supporters and clubs, the it will be time for me to say bye bye to the game I have loved and definitely to my Sky subscription. We'll see. It goes like a cycle. The egos at SL get some mad expansion/ world domination ideas, they roll out a crazy scheme and mad clubs. It flops having been propped up for years and we go back to where the game belongs...only one day they'll go too far one day and their core clubs will be half gone
