And yet again one of the offspring try to skank the family.

the swear filter has edited, what was the correct use of the word, in both senses.

If RW hac thrown his weight and influence behind Wakeys stadium then it would stand to reason Wakey would have reciprocated and both clubs would have been in a stronger position and may have even had their stadiums in further stage. Petty small minded anti rugby tactics will make him no friends in the rugby community, we all compete against each other but we all need each other or the whole thing crumbles.

Is it available to view online?

Tried looking in the NM planning portal, although new docs were added today none were his.

If it's not available to view would someone please type it up???

Despicable man! Almost tempted to form a similar movement petitioning that any new supermarket should be located in Wakefield not Castleford. Use the LCC line of "we're bigger we need it", with a hint of RW's tactocs of scuppering the clubs which gives you the best gate of the year.


He once to my (in date) student ID off me as he thought the pic was dissimilar to me, made me pay the additional tenner or wait outside. Scum bag!

Are we not offering too much attention to this letter?

Its very appearance is obviously going to cause a stir from a Wakefield/Cas rugby rivalry perspective, but from a political stand point, does it really change anything? It's not like the planning inspector isn't going to be aware of the Glasshoughton development.

Maybe, but as it was intended for use by the objectors in their submission, but now initially raised by Yorkscourts Barrister - Andrew Piatt - in order to allow Sir Rodney to nullify it, then it's intention was clearly to de-rail our proposal in favour of GH.

So in summary, IMO, no is the answer. It's dirty tricks by a fellow member of the RFL and is unprecedented in being a direct attack on the very establishment of competing club. Not on - and, again IMO, an apology should be forthcoming!

Hopefully we have arguments/evidence to counter his claims, but that's not really the point.
He has overstepped the boundaries on this one and should be brought to task.

I agree 100%. This is a political arena whereby his input warrants no need or place. The very fact his name and misguideed optinions are being discussed at all at what is essentially the city of Wakefield's public enquiry is enough to get my goat up. This isn't Wakefield vs Cas. It has bog all to do with his club or his opinion.

Yorkshire radio have asked cas tigers about the letter, they say they are gonna issue a statement in a bit, wonder what it's gonna say

Absolutely agree with all that has been said, particularly regarding the concentration of his efforts on our project and not yours....(i actually think this may have rubbed off onto some of our fans too )

I have always said that Richard wright is first and foremost a cas fan and has the best interests of the club at heart(having seen him in action personally)

However i can not condone his actions here, stay out of our buisness and we will stay out of yours should be the party line.

Even if it was at the request of the objectors and if indeed all it contained was the truthful versions of events regarding the feasibililty study or proposal there of........he must have realised how this would look to the wider RL community and WTW as well.


Quite frankly as a cas fan...its embarassing
