As a Wakey fan it looks to me Wakey are shafted either way here. Glasshoughton (I've been there a couple of times) is brilliant, would be a great matchday experience that IMO could be the best in Super League. I live in Filey so it wouldn't matter to me personally if the Stadium was at GH or NM as I don't live around there. However I doubt Wakey fans would bother going to Cas to watch Wakey, and without those fans going, it would be pointless TBH.



I've read through hundreds of pages of this topic now and it looks like NM is dead in the water as much as my fellow Wakey fans clutch at straws with talk of Oakwell and the like. However the stumbling block here from what I've read is Cas could do with Wakey on board to get bricks laid.



TBH its a crap situation for both of our clubs and I feel sorry for both sets of supporters involved but as far as I can see Wakey will be getting the short straw at the end of the day. If wakey cease to exist then thats that, I will go and watch Sheffield Wednesday a bit more.



I could go on and on and round and round in circles about this topic, but whats the point? What will be will be ATEOTD. Good luck to Cas, but by the looks of things my club are doomed

I totally agree mate and what a crock of the RFL have conjured up with this licensing mullarkey, If Wakey dont want to share,then I wish them luck in getting what they want.



After sunday and the other derby days , i would like to know what the RFL want to replace these passionate days with, it looks like it could be an exciting battle between Toulouse and the quins with 1500 in attendance and the atmosphere of a closed library in a sterile flat pac stadium.



Its not your club thats doomed , its the fecking game that doomed if these clowns get their way



O/T did you work at Anglers crofton any time ?

well they might as well merge widnes as well with saints

Lets get on with building at GH and if Wakey had anything about them they could move in with us until the money world gets some where back to normal then they can do 1 and get there own ground sorted..keeping both teams in super league should be are main reason to share. Dont need ooh i wont go there cos its cas just get on until you get some where u can build ur own....

I think you may have a problem with it then old lad!

Just what I said about Newmarket - the money is there, we just need the council to stop playing politics with planning permission. As it's not Trin's stadium, Cas can tag along until their money is sorted out and their own stadium built without feeling that they are playing in their rivals stadium.



What it boils down to is we need PP, but not more money, you need the money that WMDC ain't got UNLESS they go back on their promise to Trin. Neither of us can afford to wait, but if Box is playing poker with Trinity he needs to be careful, cos the mood amongst Wakey fans is to call his bluff and re-locate to Barnsley (if they'll have us) rather than play in Cas Tigers stadium. If Wakey move to Cas we're doomed, 'cos the units will get built anyway just a year or two later and without the need to 'chuck in' a stadium as a sweetener. If Cas shack up with Wakey for a year or two there's every chance your lack of money will sort itself out - plus it'll give you time to sort out the compulsory purchase you desparately need for the access routes.

So what you are saying is that WMDC have decided that you will get outline planning but it is being held up by certain members of the council in collaboration with the planning officers to further the GH stadium - If I wre you I would get straight onto the local goverment ombudsman !!

what are we exactly compulsary purchasing ??? and i think its leeds city council thats got your number not mr box or are you that stupid you cant see that??

The compulsory purchase is for a few square metre's of grassed area's in front of B&Q, Pizza Hut, Mc Don's and the Ford Showroom to enable the new gyratory road system to be constructed.

im really trying but where is there grass in front of those places and i thought the roads were sorted coming from jct 31 ?? please please dont tell me when the road works are done there is more to come

Yes there are more alterations to colorado way, the works now are nothing to do with the scheme they are just to re-constuct the road surfaces.

Bit unnecessary, don't you think

Wakefield planning issues have got bugger all to do with Leeds, and any objections they raise will be dealt with by the planning process. When all said and done, Leeds are just a bit narked that Wakey have beaten them to it, cos IF we get permission it probably snookers any chance Leeds have for their side later on.



And as for the compulsory purchase - if I owned any of that land I'd be offering it to the developers at market rates (and then some

) 'cos it must be pretty valuable to the developers - it stops you in your tracks if you don't get it. And if they tried to compulsorarily purchase it at any less than what was a good price I'd be fighting it through the courts.



FWIW, me being a nasty suspicious sod, I think WMDC are playing silly buggers so that they don't have to put any money into either scheme, and they'll blame it on Cas and Wakey pig-headedness!!
