Its turmoil.
Instead of trolling so quickly, why not stop and think before you post Lewis.
It will stop you looking so thick.
HTH.

| Quote: J20 "As Widnes will put in a bid better than 3/4 current SL clubs it made sense for them to 'give hope' to other potential bidders knowing that they'd be putting one up anyway!
How many broken promises from 2008 bids? More than enough to boot at least one out!'"
right now, it is difficult to argue that under any system, Wakefield should be kept in, and they would, in all likelihood be replaced with Widnes anyway.
However, committing themselves to bring in a team from the lower leagues stopped them looking at the best fourteen bids. They are looking for the best 13 from the current clubs, and the best from the lower league.
Widnes would likely at this stage have one of the best 14 bids, but three years ago that wasnt guaranteed.
Clubs should be in SL in perpetuity, with only a meltdown like this seeing them drop out. Our aim should be to grow SL from this point.

| The interesting times will come when the HMIC catch up with other clubs, as is believed will be happening shortly, their will be that many teams with points deductions, you will be able to win the league with half a dozen points!!

Would that be a ‘Heartland’ meltdown or an ‘Expansion’ meltdown?

It would be either. And it would be a decision made on the merits of the situation.

What's trolling about that? I'm just stating the fact that they wanted to kick one of us out

You are stating the obvious, and enjoying stating the obvious.
We can see right through you.
I await your next 'troll' response.

I wouldn't exactly hate to see you relegated you're right on that one, afterall you did send us down twice. However to think I'd want to see you "go under" is a misconception.

Your posts on the Cas forum contradict above.

We sent you down twice? As did all the other teams that you lost to that season. We are not going down on the field, we are going down behind the scenes.
Now jog on...

Self moderation is part of being a grown up.

| Quote: jungle man "I am truely sorry for your plight and I really want Wakefield in the top flight and I said the same to fans that I spoke to on Saturday. But do you truely believe what you are saying?, because I can't. Are you seriously saying that Wakey would get the nod over Cas at this current moment in time, if so on what grounds?????. Most of your team are going/gone (Obst and Fegurson plus Murphy next) and the financial situation is still up in the air. Our plans are waiting final approval and are on WDC planning website for all to see. Like I said I would love this mess to sort itself out but I think you have made the RFL's mind up for them already.'"
Before we start let me say I don't think we are in a better position than you.
However, until your building begins we are all still likely to think that you can't afford to do it, otherwise it would have been built (or at least started) 2 years ago.
I've got some plans in my house for a 6 bedroom mansion with games room and cinema but until I can find the money to build it they are not worth anything.
I think before the administration we could have competed reasonably with you on the bid front, as we would have been basing our bid on a Superleague standard stadium and would compare reasonably well with you on all other aspects (Cas better on some, Wakey better on some). Your bid presumably is going to be based on playing at the Jungle till Glasshoughton is ready so not a "Superleague standard" stadium.
