And what happens if they don't? Everybody's making assumption on what may or may not happen. The point is worrying what happens now, not two, three, five or ten years down the road.

I agree but better to have a club and fight that possibility rather than fade into obscurity and have a large % of your fans not support the new "fledgling" club in the lower leagues as they only want SL?

Can I spell it out to you ! The club have done a business plan for relocating to cas and basically it says it will not work financially. Our crowds are low enough now and many more will not bother going over there to watch us. So how do we grow the business in Cas ?
Basically a move to Cas would be financial suicide so how are we being unreasonable by not going ?

it would as a stepping stone to Newmarket, if was to stay there then it would be a new club, and if Trinity was used as the team then I would look towards supporting them, WMDC should be ashamed at what they are trying to do, it has a taste of Thatchersim in way they are forcing us into a corner  |

we would not last a year in oakwell financially, ffs we can hardly survive at BV!
sponsors would be harder to come by, wed have to pay rent, fixtures could get moved all over the place to suit the footy, FANS WOULD NOT GO! south yorkshire does not want another sporting team, let alone an RL team, its been tried, it failed!
think you need to look nearer to home as well as to who has led who where!

| The country is on it's no matter what the politicians say. And the RFL are when all said & done threatening all clubs that don't make their criteria on grounds to build a new stadia  Why couldn't this have been put on hold for at least couple of years to see what happens with the economy? Whats the point in having new stadiums if the fans don't have a job and can't afford to go and watch.
Sorry but I don't blame Wakey,Cas or even Box. This is down to the RFL forcing the clubs that can't afford it out of super league.Fans go on about Wakeys ground no shelter if it rains,poor toilets and parking facilities but most grounds are the same.
Bradford--- No shelter for fans
Leeds ---- No shelter for away fans and no parking facilities
Salford--- No shelter & poor toilets no Parking
Castleford-- No shelter (dare not risk bogs) 
HKR---No shelter, no parking and stewards.
Most of us go to games and spend less than 2 hours in the ground. If we can't make do for just 2 hours then I think we should give up.
Rant over. |

good points, but yes it is the clubs fault as they should have been lobbying for the extra years you mentioned 2 years ago, en mass!

Think he's talking about 'away' ends. But the problem with the rest of them is that you can't change ends, whereas at Cas and Wakefield you can.
