According to the club website there will be a statement realeased later today. I cant personally see it saying anything that we don't already know.

What did i say about leeds council apposing it? Like us with manchester they are the reason for this setback.

Unlucky, probably game over for Trinity now.

And we will see one of the problems of franchising next season, because what will be the point of next season now? Any win would feel hollow if we are out anyway. If it is announced that we are out, I can't see much point on going to games apart from the last one, because it will be utterly pointless.

I totally agree. If we get told that we're not going to be awarded a license we might as well jack it in there and then, forfeit the remainder of the season, save the money, and start again in the National Leagues. Lord knows we will need that money.

I know it probably seems like it now but championship rugby isn't the end of the world. It would be a step down for you clearly but it is a great competition right now and you would be the 'big' club in the competition.

Just to add I hope that this doesn't mean the end of Wakey in SL as I have a lot of time for wakefield as a club. Good luck to you all.

How exactly would we save money -- contracts would still have to be paid up.

Non super league at Oakwell?? -Wouldnt happen -- not financially viable.

Might as well play at Collage Grove if/when the club get booted out. Of course Wakefield FC are unlikely to want Trinity there do to the bad feeling between the two when they shared BV.

Absolutely mate. That is where I believe the problem stems. They could have just kept out of it.
If they get their interfering way, it will not be long before Wakefield City loses what is left of it's identity, and our post codes stars with LS.

We will just have to see what is in the pipeline, so for now it's even squeekier time than it was.

Wakefield FC wouldn't really have a say as they are only tenants at College Grove. However the place isn't really up to scratch.

Champioship rugby is a meaningless competition and a total joke. Sport needs P and R otherwise its nothing more than a sham like wrestling. Like I've said before the RFL can shove their championship RL up their Harris I would sooner follow Rugby Union at least in the sport they still have P and R.

Exactly Mat,i could even call for Sunday dinner at my mums!!!!

Any ideas people have of playing out of Oakwell if not in super league are quite simply not deliverable!!!
No super league = no Wakefield Trinity

Can't agree with you there squire, there is far more Wakey fans in Sth yorks than what you think and fwiw I would hold off pooring scorn over this untapped potential you are convinced does not exist in that area. Those what live in the south of the city would also find that Oakwell is just as easy to get to as Newmarket would be and I am sure would tolerate the upheaval of going there for one season if that were the case. As for not generating income I am sure that some sort of deal could be agreed with Patrick Cryne and Barnsley MBC if a 12 month deal for the ground was sorted out where by both parties could be satisfied financially.

I dont want Wakey trin to cease operating, if you lost out on SL where could you play??

College Grove is a decent little stadium, how many will it hold though?

What about Osset Trinity?

FWIW I hope you do get sorted out and get another franchise, same for us aswel, the superleague would be a much duller place without either of us in there
