In all honesty i do feel for you and what you are going through at the minute and i have no idea what the best option is for your future but i really do believe your board should at least consider GH.'"
Yes I would say if the PI does not go our way, then College Grove would be fine for Championship rugby, untill we find a place to build after all we would have 3yrs to find new land... GH NO...!!

Good article - however groundshare isn't correct. I think what he meant to say was - Wakefield come cap in hand to Castleford and ask if they can play some games games it their new stadium. Paying a nice rent to the Tigers
How would that go down well - sitting in the black & amber seats

Nothing is near being built at your end so hold your horses. All this gloating could look daft if things dont go your way.

| Wakefield FC don't own College Grove they rent it from the Sports Club and the capacity is more like 2000. The biggest crowd they've had is just short of 1400 (against FC United where they brought 1200 or so)

| I certainly wouldn't follow Wakefield to Glasshoughton. It would only delay our inevitable demise and at the same time give Cas a peg up out of the hole RW has dug for them.
Super League at Oakwell or Championship at College Grove seem to be the only realistic options to keep Wakefield Trinity independant.

So you are saying that a business should do something that the majority of it's customers would be hostile to? Miss The Apprentice auditions, did you? Keep sweeping up the burger wrappers, I can't see much of a future in business for you.

2000 capacity - more than enough for a Wakey game then

| I for one would never step foot in a stadium to watch Wakey again if we moved to GH and the majority of Wakey fans would feel the same. Its just not an option so people may as well stop going on about it.

You want to have a read of your own forum, I wouldn't go counting anything if I were you, it might come back and bite you.

This comment has to be the most insightful comment ever made while at the same time the most bleeding obvious... you don't need to write any more about this subject. You need to make that your signature right now (perhaps correcting the spelling errors though!).

| Seriuos Question here and before anyone starts i am not gloating etc. This is something that the article raised.
Can Wakefield actually afford the rent at Barnsley? I know one of the concerns of Quins was the fact they were being charged circa £20k per game to play at the stopp. Now i know these are London prices etc but its not just the actual rent. Add to this the fact of the lost revenue from concessions etc and it will invariably cost more to move to Oakwell than the costs saved from not running Belle view.
There of course will be a cost saving involved with not having to pay for the maintenance etc on games day but surely that can not equate to lets say £15k per game - the likley rent price having to be paid per game.
How will this develope the long term viability of the club or at least the 3 years covering the next frachise period - given that this is one of the things the franchise applications will look not simply the stadia you play in.
There is no point having a great stadia if the clubs long term future is crippled by the cost of locating there. And before you start yes i accept the issue over Quins and Crusaders who face the same issue - but the RFL have made it quite clear these are special circumstances - weather we like it or not they don't care
Be interesting to here your thoughts.

Not a fan then!
With regards to the article, it's sole purpose was to generate a reaction and it has succeeded. He could've gone further back in history than the last 6 months but chose not to.
