Well i'm going to object on the grounds of loss of some green grass.

This will be "wakey supporters are starting a group up to get this stopped" when translated to nutjob speak.

Isn't glass houghton famous for the great crested newt ?

Ha ha! After reading some of the comments on here regarding Bradford bulls that's a bit rich, don't you think? If anything the last few weeks have shown it's that every club has it's buffoons (nutjobs if you prefer) and no one is immune.
As for the stadium, my opinion is as it was the last time and the time before that; I'll believe it when I'm sat in it!

Don't know what it's got to do with us but good luck to them

Me neither. Hope it works out for them but we have Newmarket to concentrate on and need everyone to support it and get behind it.

There doesn't seem all that much to support and get behind at present. Just the waiting game. And waiting. And waiting.....

That's the nature of development I'm afraid. We need to be patient but also need to be behind the venture at the same time.

Aye they don't rush do they?

Do we? I would of thought with the end of franchising CT would be a lot less in need of a new stadium than WTW. Your still paying rent to a bank and have a capacity that has been halved for H & S reasons, I think you might be a bit more desparate to move than we are.

Good luck with it Cas.

Hope both stadiums come off so we can have the best Yorkshire derby in two modern stadiums

Don't be fooled into thinking that just because we don't pay rent at wheldon road that it will do us fine.
Older stadiums such as ours are a millstone around the clubs neck. The facilities are poor in terms of attracting regional, national and international sponsors. The facilities for the players are 3rd rate, at best. The list goes on.
If we ever want to sit at the top table in this sport then a modern stadium is imperative.

Well said Steady - exactly the point I was making.

Would you like to take over from Dave as our resident 'reasonable Cas fan?' He's getting a bit stale to be honest - could do with a change.

It's easy being reasonable while we're doing well. Ask me again in 6 weeks!

The only sensible option is for Wakey & Cas to build and share a ground.

Not rising that easily!

Why don't we go the whole hog and become Calder.

Jesus. I have just finished Mike Rylance's excellent history and. as we all know but sometimes need reminding, we have had more piped deams of new stadia than Piper McPiper at the Battle of Mc Pipe. This ..have I read it right, is Cas's.. well, join us in never never land, cos it seems plain to me, none of this will ever happen. A merger of our clubs was an idiotic idea but a share of a stadium, not so daft in my opinion

Don't know about that but said newt nearly got the new hospital in Beverley stopped..where I work. I found one in our dept th other week and the world has continued. What can I say? No newt in worrying!

Why don't you play at Leigh?

i cringed the other day when someone posted a 3/3 thread on here and i cringe at this thread too. who cares which team builds a ground first? plus a few letters have been sent round, a heck of a journey to go yet. i am of the opinion that we need a new ground. we could get relegated next year and rfl may change criteria for teams who get promoted that they need better stadiums...

No newt is good newt.

Hope that both clubs get new grounds and get better just to be able to peave the RFL off.

With franchising no longer happening, is it worth clubs spending millions on new stadiums?
