Crusaders have also been in administration (and were given their license based on the fact that they were based in South Wales, but are now less than an hour from the 'heartland'). Are Castleford a bigger club? They have been relegated from Super League twice in recent years whilst Wakefield have never been relegated from Super League. Wakefield may be close to Leeds, but Leeds is equally close to Wakefield and not too far from Bradford, do you think they should be at risk too? As for our ground, it's of the same standard as Castleford's, whereas we have the option of playing at Oakwell until Newmarket is ready, similar to what St Helens have done this year at Widnes. We are not the worst team in Super League, as the table clearly shows we are 4 points clear of Crusaders and have won more games than Harlequins. Not sure how you can be so certain that we WILL finish bottom, as Crusaders will have to win 2 of their remaining 5 games (despite only winning 4 of the previous 22), but even if that were to happen, we have also finished 5th within the current franchise period. The fact is we offer more than Crusaders, Quins and Halifax, and are are at least level with Castleford and possibly Salford.

| You never know, Wakefield could have put forward some super proposal of which we do not know about. If you're so certain you should give every member of this thread £100 if you're wrong.

Maybe there are little green men on the moon

Cas have also made 4 play off appearances (soon to be 5...touch wood) and consistenly get higher crowds.
Not going down the tit-for-tat road as it's been done a million times before, neither am i arrogant enough to say Cas are a bigger club but, if you're going to compare, at least be fair.

| Wakefield AND Crusaders, if you've been in admin during the course of a franchise period you should NOT be allowed in Super League for the following 3 years.

| I don't recall Catalan winning a Grand Final or the Northern Rail Cup either. I don't think you can compare applications until we know what the criteria is, and with the RFL I don't think we will ever know the exact criteria. The rules change to suit them. It's not a sport anymore.

Of course they do , last time you were allowed pretty pictures of stadiums but not nearly finished ones , next time any SL club wishing to remain in SL must have gone into administration at least twice if they are in Wales

| "Are Castleford a bigger club? They have been relegated from Super League twice in recent years whilst Wakefield have never been relegated from Super League" - A good example of how the franchise system works then.
"As for our ground, it's of the same standard as Castleford's" - Now that is Hilarious.

| I said Wakefield. It will be a shame to see them go but in my opinion they are the worst team in the comp.
Poor ground, poor attendance and a poor playing team in general.
I hope to see them in SL again soon though

Do you walk around with your eyes closed? We might not have the best ground, but it's as good as Castleford's at least. Besides, we also have the option of playing at a Premier League standard stadium in Oakwell. As far attendances, we average more than Crusaders and Harlequins. Oh, and we're above Crusaders and won more than Harlequins as well. Another who has jumped on the band wagon without actually thinking before he writes.

| I've voted for Wanky because they're a nice little club but they're no Wigan are they. And for all the years they were complete sh[iite[/i in SL and all of a sudden after a decent run in the league this year they think they are the cream of RL.
They can all go and take they're shirts off after a hard day of being y now.
