the reality is wakey will be kicked out of SL and cas wont

nothing you post on an internet forum will change it

enjoy trips to batley and dewesbury mate

Possibly because it's not got permission yet... why would he say it's being built when that's not confirmed yet?

It's impossible to know 100% that it's going ahead until cement is going in the ground - I would have thought Wakey fans of all people would have learnt that lesson by now...

I'm sure once FPP is awarded and the diggers are on site, the RFL will start getting excited about the build

Whats the point in all this "weve got it", "you aint got it" nonsense. Lets just wait untill PP is accepted. If work starts weve got the money, if it doesnt we havent got it.....simples



This should happen before licences are submitted, so we dont need to [iconvince[/i the RFL. Were either going to start work or not.

Even if Cas' new stadium falls flat on it's face, Wakefield will be in the championship next year, not Cas. If picking holes in other clubs stadium plans is your way of coping with the pain of administration then fill your boots.

You continue to state the facts and they're blatantly ignored. I'd give up Bonzo - like plaiting fog.

Already have. I'm waiting for them to come up with a new argument and not holding my breath.

More like just hope.

January 2015 - Still not built due to lack of funding.

Shanter.

Willie Mason still coming!!!

Hillarious.

I aren't saying anymore on the subject just this:

Wait and see, although those who want us to fail will be very dissapointed.

So let's see



Where are the Wakey up to on their similar timescale list?



Oh yes, that would be nowhere.

Hasn't Rugby League become very mean spirited in recent years? Food for thought.

Too true!

Yep, remember a few years ago when I came on here every fan wished one another well for the season and it was generally good mannered. However now it seems much more cut throat and reminds me of a football forum I visit daily.

I wish both Cas and Wakey all the best.

To all those involved in Rugby League - hope you have a miserable season. I hate you all.

You can't beat a bit of mean spirit

F off.

I know what you mean - it's partly that and partly just good old fashioned bias. Putting aside stadium building for a second, this sort of thing comes alive when ever a thread starts about stadium ownership or finances. You'll be hard pressed to find a fan of SuperLeague team especially admitting 'Yeah, we're stuffed. Haven't got a pot to p155 in'. Wakefield excepted of course. Christ, Wigan had to borrow someone elses stadium to play a playoff game and the retort was 'least our running costs at the JJB are low'.

The advent of the franchise license killed that off.

A few Wakey and Cas posters have been going at each other, and their clubs, like this since long before the licensing system.

Is it a majority?

Well there has always been smug know it all bores around who incense everyone with unwarranted self confidence. I agree, that bit has never changed.
