I still dont see why York Court would stop building the planned stadium because we were in the championship? We need the planned stadium and Mr York Court has kept his promises so far to deliver a stadium that the club want, I dont see the point of a smaller stadium??

The stadium build is not affected by the division we will play in, the only danger in us being in the Championship is in the possibility of the WMDC pulling the £2M facility, which was for SL clubs in the District, and offering the whole £4M to Cas.
However, SRW & Colin Mackie have both said that the stadium build would not be scuppered by the Council pulling that £2M.

We all know this so lets hope the RFL realise and give us the chance to fulfil our potential in Super League next year.

The point is that a smaller stadium will be cheaper. How do we know that eviction from SL won't be a game changer? The prospects of getting back are so slim, why would york court risk the extra investment thats simply not needed? The reality is that Championship rugby would be a disaster for any planning for our future.

We could moving from now but that the RFL would rather have a 30 year failure in london to continue or that joke of a club thats just over the welsh border. Shame our board won't have to bottle to sue the RFL!

Yes the Championship is a disaster for future planning, didnt seem to bother the Board and fans of Wakefield when the club voted to accept the current franchise system that it was a disaster for clubs stuck in the championship. It didnt seem to bother anyone involved with Wakey after gaining promotion in 98 to then vote to stop P+R either, there will be little sympathy for the plight of Wakefield im afraid

I don't know if that was the circumstances at the time (98 onwards), but in 2008 I argued strongly against the franchise system and the unfairness of it and a few other Wakey fans on here did. I don’t think the feeling amongst most Wakey fans was of support for the system, at least most I talk to was never in favour of it. It's just a case of a lot of us been more vocal in our opposition now that we are directly affected.

When Wakey went up in 98 they got no money from super league so the then 2nd tier clubs gave Wakey some of there money from the sky contract in return Wakey would stand up for P+R. Wakey took the money and went back on there word voting to stop P+R

We went up in 1998 and P & R stopped in 2008 that's 10 years were c c sides could be promoted. You correct we didn't get full sky money for 2 season which happened to no other club when promoted. Back on topic anyway I sure I read NM would be 12k minimum or 15k if the community trust had enough funds for the corners

Jeez your one fickle fan, last year you were trying to rub Cas fans noses in it on a daily basis now your whole world has collapsed.
Well you're wrong as ever. What division we are in or what crowds we get will not stop Yorkcourt building the Stadium they planned for - they too see long term and they also need it to get planning permission anyway.
You just have to look in a 10 mile radius to see two clubs who gained new stadiums when they and their partner clubs were not top flight and had gates nowhere near capacity. Doncaster and Huddersfield. Only one out of those four is top flight and none of them hit capacity on anything like a regualra basis. Yet both stadiums were built.

Richardson and the gang may well have, not the fault of the Wakey fans mate.

It'll be payback time soon from the Cas fans and who can blame them after some of the stuff posted on there.
On topic Newmarket will run as planned.
