I am fully aware of the other threads relating to ongoing ground issues, but this is just a simple question - having purchased my season ticket and one or two other things from the shop for next season where will I be travelling to for the home games? Is this still being explored or is the venue known. Just like to know.

Nothing has been released yet, but from past discussions, if you're unhappy with the location (should it not be Belle Vue) when it's released, then you will be entitled to your season ticket money back.

I honestly have no idea where we'll be though, I'd rather be out of Belle Vue tbh, but i know that's not the opinion shared by many. I think the alternatives mentioned have included; Dewsbury, Featherstone, Barnsley, and Doncaster. A couple of years at any of these wouldn't surprise me. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best!

Won't be Featherstone the club refused the offer to play there .

If it's not Featherstone, I am struggling to see how Dewsbury will work. This then leaves Barnsley or Doncaster. I live in Beverley so it makes no odds tome, I travel anyway. Of course this is bad for the club but I wonder if it has to be so bad. Transport offers built in with ticket prices, especially season ticket prices. I saw the club post on our grass roots work in Barnsley; Exploiting the links we may have made may help? The Court battle may go on for years. A question that springs to my mind is would I rather we stayed Wakefield Trinity and end up with no home in Wakefield for years, playing at a small ground like Dewsbury and relegated, or could we rename to Wakefield & ?? Trinity and accept things the way they are and remain in SL. I don't know if this would work, with or without a rename,,, maybe not, but we need to think outside the box and outside the City as our Council clearly could not care less about the well being of the club. I read some say that a club outside the City will be the end for them. I would ask why? Why really? Is a car, bus or train ride extra really so bad? Can we not foster support local to a new area? With a heavy heart I think we need to accept the world as it is and move out, at least for now

Supported for over 60 years and will be there wherever it is we are based.

Supported Trinity for 57 years and will also be there wherever they play however I do feel that moving out of the city will be a mistake and have no faith in the judiciary coming to our rescue. This uncertainty must be damaging season ticket sales. My choice would be Featherstone its a ground where we could create a brilliant atmosphere to get behind an exciting team.

Wasn't that just leverage to push Box's hand? I'd suggest that ship has sailed, things are far more serious now, I for one would be happier at Featherstone rather than Dewsbury but that's just personal preference.

As Jinjer said that was then. Things have moved on. No harm in changing your mind when circumstances change. Featherstone now looking the best option if staying at Belle Vue is a non starter.

It may have been the main thing but I also suspect no one wanted to hear whispers of merger talks again. Saying that if 88m isn't playing ball at all, we could go up there till Newmarket hits its trigger point.



I probably agree though with what a few people have said, it's closer to SL standard than Dewsbury's (no disrespect to their ground in that) with a capacity just short of 10k so would do us fine in that way. From what I remember reading last year, they were happy to have us there as well. Don't know if that's changed since though. In the mess that we suddenly find ourselves, it probably makes the most logical choice.

Quick one do we know that the Dewsbury stadium does not meet the standards and for what reasons.

Don't want us to play at Fev or cas happy anywhere else.

Up the Trin

I think there needs to be a minimum of 2000 seats, dewsbury has 900

so with the addition of 1100 temporary seating it would be ok. If that's the only reason ths far end of the ground would accommodate that quit easily I would have thought. Also the ground must be just over the Wakefield boundary because WMDC had a refuse yard right next to the ground ,a new housing developments now on it.

I will go anywhere, this is one of the best squads we have had in years and they deserve decent support.

So will I the club needs and deserves all our support in these testing times

So will I, but tbh that's what sad about this whole thing. The fact we have a great squad, a good Coach and a man in charge who knows what he's doing and we should be looking forward to next year and the year after etc, but instead we're worried about bloody stadium issues and our SL status after next season. I suppose there's not much you can do but just get behind them and enjoy this coming season.

I might well be proved wrong but as I understand it we are only gonna be allowed one season by the RL at Dewsbury. Would we be allowed more time if at Feath? We'd still be in the Wakefield area, and have a ground that on paper has greater capacity than BV? I don't know how criteria regarding corporate etc come into play but Feath does seem the better option for me. That's assuming they'd want us there. I do find that at times we're a little arrogant regarding Dewsbury and their ground, we talk of moving in as tenants then want to build new possibly temporary stands, it's not our ground to do such changes. Plus I can't see us affording the cost of a new all seating stand, didn't MC suggest that temporary stands were costly?

I suspect that the arrogance only comes from the fans and that MC has been dealing with the various Chairmen in a much more civilised and respectful manner.

Absolutely bang on

Yeah that's my take on our current predicament, come out fighting with our pride intact & heads held high!

Where ever we play I will be there


How often do a club have the opportunity to rent the stadium out too
Surely it would be a good financial move for Fev or dewsburry?

God I hope we leave BV, Agbrigg and Wakefield. Sooner the better.

After all my years at Belle Vue, beginning to feel the same Belly.
Typed this , looked and it said tears rather than years.
Perhaps should have left it unedited.

Manni has been posting his cryptic quotes again today.

Having read it, the wording did have an air of positivity about it, ,but the text gave no mention to the stadium.

This quote though was at the foot of the earlier pinned quote concerning the stadium

Just read tweet myself.
