What about fans that don't live in the centre of Wakefield or don't live on Wheldon Rd in Cas.

For me to GH is 3.2 miles. To Newmarket Lane is 9.2 miles. An extra 6 miles just to see my team? No thanks.

No TRB, come on TRB spill the beans whats going on, is it

or

Exactly! The council have only a little money (if any) to support ( not fund) only one site and that will be the one with the go ahead ie Glasshoughton. Don't forget time is running out fast for both clubs.

Looks like Mr Box is swinging his amber and black wrecking ball again.

If we go to Glasshoughton, it is not in Wakefield anymore and so is not my team. If we go to Oakwell as an alternative, it will become a Barnsley team and is not my team. I do not support a limited company called Wakefield Trinity. I support a rugby team in Wakefield called Wakefield Trinity, and when that ends, I can see no reason to support them somewhere else purely because it has the same board of directors.

This is not an anti-Cas thing, but I'm not from Cas, and don't want to support a team playing in Cas. Sport support is an emotional thing, and I'll follow my emotions, not reason.

Statement issued. You'll have to wait! Sorry!

Well I'm not to know where you live am I?
And from where I live in Wakefield it's 9.4 miles to Glasshoughton.
So it's not IDEAL for some.. either way it goes (if it happens) we'll have to lump or like.

I never said you were. But the point is that the majority of Wakefield fans don't live in the centre of Wakefield but Ossett, Horbury, Denby Dale etc and a lot of Cas fans come from Garforth, Pontefract, Knottingley, Leeds, Wakefield etc.

Forget about a stadium share, on with Newmarket.

Yes.

Anyone noticed the statement on SWAG posted on the 12th.. or am I a tad late.
The decision date for the Newmarket Development has been moved back to September 2010.
Then the express headline.

If you care to read what you have just put you have offered a fantastic case for the stadium being at Newmarket.

No, I've put a fantastic case as to why a groundshare would be utterly stupid and would completely destroy one club's identity.

I would only a groundshare IF and I mean only IF it was a short term proposal until the other stadium gets built.

So whats new, you'll have to wait, sick of it

In your own mind, perhaps. For anyone else reading the post that JITB has quoted, you've done exactly what he said you've done.

To be honest, I’m sick to death of it all.

The Stadium issue has wholly detracted from the reason I watch the game. Every final league position, every game, it just seems empty to me. What’s the point in averaging eighth for a poxy point on Red Hall’s grand plan?

The petty bickering, by certain supporters, is doing my head in!

We’ve got planning, we’ve got funding, blah, blah.

Cas fans saying the only feasible option in Glasshoughton. Wakey fans praying for Newmarket, thread after thread, week after week.

I read TRB’s ‘stay positive’ comments, and think back to T.P.

I read about the Cas venture & R.W’s pep blogs.

I’ve no idea what WMDC’s financial involvement is to either venture, but, I was under the impression that the ground at Newmarket would be built & paid for via the whole scheme as a private venture.

The Cas situation is another matter. Are they funding Glasshoughton through the sale of Wheldon Road, because, until the blast zone issue is resolved they can’t sell jack.

Friends of mine, who don’t really follow the game, will say to me from time to time, ‘Wakey are having a good season’. To which I have to reply ‘yes but, if they don’t get a new ground their going to be kicked out of the league’

You just couldn’t make it up

.

Not long - just until someone posts it on the SWAG website - the official site for the campaign.

What???????????????????????????????????????????????????
do you really think that site gets more reads on this subject than this one??

Phil you are effectively SWAG on here, dont see why, if the statement is ready it cannot be released to be honest.

I believe Box has stated no sharing no funding pick the bones out of that.

WHAT funding?????????????
What funding is box in control of that can be given to either project at this time?

Well at least you dont have to live in WMDC and have the bunch of Castleford muppets running your life.
Think yourself lucky you live in filey and cheer up

Havn't you been following all this over the past months



two parcels of land each with the same value. Both pledged to the respective stadiums. Trouble is Cas are way off the financial mark and the truth is they need the wakey land moving to their funding to complete, that is the bottom of it all They have played the tune and Box their monkey is dancing.

er so who actually owns both pieces of land?

WMDC owns them. I know where the Wakey land is but not sure about Cas. Both are worth a few million but the exact value is a bit contraversial at the moment.

Box is prepared to ditch Newmarket to divert this funding to Cas.

It will be released/posted on the OFFICIAL site and then we can chew the fat on here.
