eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif I know the lack of marketing in Barnsley by the club over the last 10 years is a joke
no shock there then icon_mad.gif icon_mad.gif


PS Oakwell for me be it for 1 season or for good look on the bright side Oakwell is not a happy hunting ground for Huddersfield icon_biggrin.gif icon_biggrin.gif

problem being we have no home in Wakefield SL or NL with the sale of Belle Vue

I know we have had this one before but could we fund the development of Dewsburys ground and if so would supporters object to playing on the Ossett boarder

Quote: chapster "they cant, so its pointless!

i so dont get these threds, wake up you lot!! WTRLFC cannot survive away from wakefield because [sizeIT BARELY SURVIVES IN WAKEFIELD ANY ADDITIONAL COST AND WE GO UNDER[/size'"

If Wakey cannot afford any addition costs , could we afford to pay the rent at any new stadium ? as we will be tenants and not owners.

I wonder how the vote would change if GH was simply a possible vnue we had found ourselves and Cas were doing something else.

For me the location is not bad and the facilities at Xscape are excellent so I'd be happy with moving there, apart from the fact that we would be sharing.
If Newmarket was a no go-er and if it was a decision of Oakwell or Glasshoughton with Cas staying at Cas....I'd go GH.

Why is Barnsley more agreeable than GH?

Quote: Walrus "Why is Barnsley more agreeable than GH?'"

For me it has the potential to open up a new market of supporters where as GH already has an SL club on their doorstep. I really can’t imagine any supporters from Cas choosing to support Wakefield over their hometown team.

Existing fans won't no. But you have more chance of taking younger fans from local schools than Cas and therefore persuading some more families to go down. Also, the location is perfect for a walk-up of neutrals too.

There is some potential there - obviously it will require time, cost and effort but there is nothing that is an impossibility.

Indeed, it would take a marketing genius to persuade the locals to come and watch Trinity over Cas, sadly, that person is very unlikely to be ever employed by the club as they would be worth their weight, and then some, in gold.
