I doubt that any of his comments will have any real influence as this would have all been mentioned anyway.
The reason this conversation keeps going round in circles is because most Cas fans won’t take of the blinkers and accept this point. Why did he have to get involved, especially knowing full well who it was that approached him and what he was been associated with? The wording of the letter made it more clear what the underlying motivations was. To quote “we have made significant progress with our site at Junction 32” I mean come on, that could have been written in 2006 it could still be written in the 2014 franchise application! There has to be some kind of fair play in sport and this just isn’t it, actively and knowingly joining a campaign to stop top class sporting facilities been brought to the game of Rugby League. You now have a Chief Exec whose interests are directly in conflict with what’s best for the game of Rugby League. Not very good.
Dickie has also opened a right can of worms here and he is making a lot off enemies. He has to remember that if the Opus Planning application ever goes in, a PI could well take place. If NM gets passed could you imagine the amount of stirring Sir Rodney could do in that one? Pick your enemies wisely Trickey…..

Have you found the link yet -- to the businesses that went bankrupt/brink?'"
I'll provide a list shortly, but here is a little something for you for now:
Wakefield's new owner, Andrew Glover, whose Spirit of 1873 company brought the club out of administration, revealed yesterday that he, too, intended to voluntarily satisfy [usome[/u of the creditors.
"It's a brand-new company and none of the old debts are there," Glover told the press conference. " [uThere are elements that I will be honouring, that I feel I want to honour[/u, but I don't want to go into details."
It is thought the old club owed more than £300,000 to HM Revenue and Customs, whose action in bringing a winding-up petition precipitated the decision to go into administration.
The administrators O'Hara and Company sold three players – Sam Obst, Daryl Millard and Dale Ferguson – for undisclosed fees to other Super League clubs during the five days they ran the club to help pay off [usome of the debt.[/u

I agree, it's bit like us pre AG, everything was done to cover up the cracks and cling to power, but until you find an alternative your stuck with it.
Please don't let it go too far and you end up in admin though, neverdid would go into melt down!!!!!!!!

Very good and your point is?
Everyone is already aware of the above info.
However thanks for reminding every one just what a top guy Andrew Glover is,honouring debts that had nothing to do with him.
He really is a shining example of how a club chairmen should conduct himself.............
I look forward to your list of "lots of businesses" that went bankrupt/to the brink because of Wakefield.

Same the other way blinks. We all have them.
There was no need for the "all cas fans are stupid" and the comments that came from it. It only made things worse. I was irritated at first with the comments but with RW not Cas or their fans.
The comments from RW were ill advised and not because it affects the stadium but because it starts a war like this.
There is no need and neither side will give in as every point made is just countered with a completely different issue the other way.
Lets just get on with the two stadiums.

The thing is though, RW hasn't done anything. He cannot and has no right to object; ergo, it's not an objection. It's a statement of fact provided in a response to someone asking questions about Cas's stadium, whether they'd share it and the feasibility study.
It's a pointless argument and Wakey fans are only upset because it brings into light something which had been pushed under a myriad of other issues.

The reasons for WTW fans disgruntlement at RW involving himself in the PI have been repeated to you over and over again on threads here, on our own board and on the VT; despite that, you keep trotting out the same deluded nonsense at every opportunity.
I know that you know that what RW did was wrong; he may not have broken any law and he may only have repeated what was already in the public domain but as has already been said, he did so in a willful attempt to scupper the chances of NM ever happening; that shows a total lack of class and demonstrates contempt for the game of RL and the people of the district. His actions have shown him to be a desperate man and as I've already said, I expect that both RW and CT will pay a heavy cost for his moment of vindictive satisfaction.

| That's funny - I haven't posted on the Wakey board. You must be confused, Bren. And how can it be nonsense when it's 100% correct?
And no I don't think he did anything wrong. With regard to that, I would like to see your evidence for your acutely libelous comments without a shred of evidence to support your comments about his motives. Nonsense indeed.

Acutely libelous! Love it.
I'd be more than happy to hear from RW's brief - put them in touch.

| What's your defence?
"He made a factual statement about his own ground and a council-proposed feasibility study....."
Here's a novel idea: quit trying to convince people on here it was 'wrong' etc and things may become a better place once again?

| I've just emailed RW and advised him not to reply to anymore letters addressed to him at Castigers.
That should do it!

If RW organised the Buffet for the PI he would've spent the last two weeks issuing press releases about how he was funding it, who was providing the plates, who was baking the bread etc etc. When everyone marched into the dining area on Tuesday they would've found the table empty!
