I'd do it in a heartbeat, the boards don't show loyalty to the fans, so why should the fans show loyalty to the clubs and NOT support a new club out of nothing more than petty spite? a new team in Glasshoughton (most central to the 3 clubs and the best place commercially) would be the biggest team in SL within a couple of years and would have by far and away the best youth setup in the Country.

For the supporters of today? Yes.

Where ever the team was based it would be seen as another form of that club, alienating supporters from the other club/s. See Huddersfield and Hull for example.

There is also a possibility that if no supporters took to the new club it wouldn't last long enough for the next generation of potential supporters to come through.

Them mergers were never going to work, and I don't think they were intended to either, Huddersfield & Sheffield is a fair distance away from each other and Hull/Gateshead were just called Hull and played in Hull, both mergers were done for the million pound RFL payout to stop Hudds & Hull going bust.

If it was in Glasshoughton then it wouldn't be a merger, it would be a takeover by Cas.

Quite frankly i could not care less where it was. I was born in Wakey but live in Donny now so have to travel anyway. Glasshoughton nearer for me by a massive two junctions! icon_lol.gif

I want to see a competitive side, im sick of turning up each week and walking away peed off. We cant match the bigger sides and never will untill we get 15k through the turnstyles every week, or like Shudds and Wire we find a sugardaddy.

No for me it would not its called progress and we should have gone with Featherstone back in 95

If we want SL after 2012 its our only chance we are skint the stadium drags on and on time is running out and we will still be bloody skint if we get it
What hope have we got when we cant even get 7000 V Wigan with half price on the gate

High time for all 3 clubs and the fans to wake up and smell the coffee the fact is no SL = NO WAKEFIELD TRINITY

The Wigan crowd was really poor, even with the weather considered, i was hoping 10k plus for that. The folk of Wakey, do not seem to be bothered!

I would suggest Normanton/Sharlston is the best place for a centrally located team.
