Why would a FINANCIAL POWERHOUSE like WDMC agree to loan GBP 150k for designs to the community trust a few months before deciding a share at GH was the only way forward (or a few months after if you believe what some of your fellow cas fans say?)

=#8000FFBecause, here's a novel idea, that none of you seemed to have ever considered, Glasshoughton would have been a TEMPORARY home for Wakefield whilst Newmarket got sorted out, as Glasshoughton is far closer to being built with less hurdles in the way in terms of objectors (zero v a council, local residents and a wildlife trust)
Not to mention, I'm sure the WMDC have FAR more money then Cas.

=#8000FFNo I didn't
I said Glasshoughton was by far the more attractive stadium plot for the council, I actually mentioned before that Glasshoughton would be temporary for Wakefield, but that was overlooked because important details like that are overlooked on here in favour of petty insults.
Glasshoughton would have been used by 2 clubs for 2 years at most while everything with Newmarket got sorted and built.

| I'd suggest that all supporters should keep their expectations low. I find it highly unlikely that this announcement will be anything of major significance. More than likely it'll be Ted addressing the fans and enlightening them to his and the clubs vision to take the club forward in the near future. I'd assume this will include the clubs intention to move to NM and to also rule out GH even on a temporary basis. I'm speculating here, but i'd imagine the plan will include a short term relocation whilst NM is being made ready with the temporary location being Oakwell.
I'd like to commend Ted though for keeping us informed in person on matchday in what must be quite an intimidating position to be. It's all too easy to criticise the club for a lack of communication, but here we have Ted addressing the fans in person whether it be good or bad news. So well done to the club

And if we've shipped in over 30 by half time, his job won't be any easier. As you said, though, fair play to the guy for having the cojones to stand out there and deliver the news. Many wouldn't...

| Amazed no-one else has said this yet, but surely this is an attempt to get more paying customers through the turnstiles just to hear something we could all probably guess at. Following the negativity surrounding grounds and the defeat last week to major rivals i'd have been amazed if the club hadn't tried to boost the gate with some gimmick or another.

It could be, but then why announce it online the evening before the game? How many extra paying customers would you expect to see with that marketing strategy? I know this is Wakey, but come on...

Word of mouth too? I'd imagine over 75% of your fanbase have access to the Internet or access the Trin website.

Aye, but most of them would prefer to creosote the garden fence than watch paint dry these days...
It may be a touch of marketing genious, of course - the crowd figures will provide the answer - but it seems to me to be a simple case of doing what's necessary when it's necessary. And fair play to the Wakey chairman for doing it.
