"Castleford's biggest home crowd of the 1991-1992 season wasn't quite 12,000 while on average they'd sit around 6000 but the noise, the chanting and the singing just blows you away" - Tawera Nikau "Standing Tall"
"I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg |

Is saying 'Glasshoughton is in Cas' the same as saying 'Horbury Bridge is in Horbury?' Or "Altofts is in Normanton?"
Sorry, I need some hope  |

You really are a wit, If you notice I am not on here all the time I pop in from time to time, now Kev Klash he really is on here prettymuch all the time.
Sorry if the truth hurts and me mentioning makes people think there may be another way to the SWAG WTWC YC dream. I do realise when you are so desperately trying to kid yourselves that your right, it must be annoying to have somebody remind you of the reality, but that is on you. |

All you are is a Professional WUM,all of your posts have been made on the Trinity forum yet you are not a Trinity supporter,you come across as somebody who has little interest in Rugby League and you only comment on this forum when the stadium at Newmarket is a topic.You are achieving nothing except wasting your own time,but then again you might have that to waste.MUG. |

Ignore me then, like I say the truth hurts. I do have a life, I have W.A.R meetings to attend, I also enjoy letter writing, otter conservation, cycling, not forgetting my love of all things Iron Age. |

In the hope of adding intelligently to the dabate... I did a bit of loose research (findings are rounded up or down as appropriate) on the distance from wakefield to a number of potential groundshare options for Trinity (I have take the centre of Wakefield as the start point for the research!)
It shows some interesting thingsBradford Bulls our fans would have to travel 14.5 miles to a home game
To share with Leeds Rhinos our fans would have to travel 13.5 miles to each home game
To share with Huddersfield Giants our fans would have to travel 11.5 miles to each home game
To share with Castleford Tigers at Glasshoughton our fans would have to travel between 9 and 12 miles (the most direct route is on very small roadways and takes you through Newmarket!!) to each home game
To share with Barnsley our fans would have to travel 9 miles to each home game
To play our home games as guests of Leeds United our fans would have to travel 8 miles to every home game
Mount Pleasant (Batley) is 7.5 miles, Crown Flatt at Dewsbury is 7 miles and the South Leeds Staduim of Hunslet is just 6 Miles
The stadium proposed at Newmarket is 4 miles out of town
no conclusions just some data....

As it stands they are not providing either. If we are relying on WMDC for anything then we are shafted as they are totally useless in every respect. |

What are the capacities of the stadiums. Bare in mind that we need 12k for 1 franchise point and no more than about 14k if our current crowds are to be no less than 40% of the capacity for another franchise point. |
