Plank???
Seriously speaking here mate
why would we have to ever merge with Wigan or Leigh?
Leigh already have their new stadium
Wigan have use of the football ground
We will be in our new stadium very shortly
I'm not so sure whether Leigh will actually make it into SL,even with their new stadium when the next franchises comes around!
But surely you must see that both Leigh and Widnes are ticking the boxes?

Seriously speaking here mate - dont know you never will no loss.

Leigh already have their new stadium Wigan have use of the football ground

Quote: I Grope Balls "What a fantastic club you all could have if only you would all swallow your pride,a merger between Wakefield,Castleford and Featherstone could possibly make this new venture a major success
With all these clubs being within the same council,then surely this council would back such a merger,a new shared stadium could also be funded more realistically,this would surely also appease the tax payers of Wakefield

The pool of talent available within this area would certainly make this new club a major player each season,one that would probably be in the top 5 each season and challenging on all fronts

Without this merger is it possible for Wakefield and Castleford to continue to exist in SL?'"

Wakefield Council are skint so they won't be directly funding any stadium. All three proposed stadiums do not require any public money so there are no rate payers to appease.

As has been said before, a merger does not automatically mean a new stadium will be built, both projects still have their issues. Also where ever the merger locates itself it would see supporters of the abandoned team become disenfranchised and turn their back on they new team.

RED WHITE & BLUE RULE BRITANNIA:



Wakefield is a big enough City in its own right. With the new community Stadium WAKEFIELD TRINITY will be able to reach it's potential as Belle Vue is strangling the life out of the club. Sir Rodney sorted the theatre Royal out for us 20 odd years ago now he's providing a top class theatre for sport at newmarket for the City & district

I remember back in the late 80's long before lottery was around,he helped the Theater raise £3/4 million to keep it from closing.

I wouldn't support a merged team either. I'm a Wakefield fan, and as any true fan knows, you don't just change teams. Wakefield till I die.
