Quote ="leicester_rhino"Nothing like a reasoned and well thought out response to build debate.
Seeing as I'm so ill informed, enlighten me. What are the main reasons that both Castleford and Wakefield have failed to make any significant progress in getting new stadia over the last 4 years'"
The same reason neither has done anything of note in the professional era. What worked as two parishes playing semi-pro isnt big enough for 2 professional sides.
Everybody hopes Cas and Wakefield get their new stadiums and are playing in front of packed houses ASAP, but most peoples common sense understands that two clubs who cant afford to play in holes they have owned since methuselah was a lad arent likely to be viable for two brand new stadiums built a junction or two apart.
Vastpants, like some Wakefield fans, seem to have some strange delusion of entitlement regarding someone else building them a stadium for free, and everybody else in the world who isnt in favour of that, and the massive warehouses built on greenbelt land to pay for it is simply anti-wakefield or 'sticking their noses in'. The reaction to anybody who has the temerity to not be wholeheartedly supportive of the development has been hilarious to watch.
The reaction to dicky wright answering questions which had already been answered, and giving out information which had already been given out was a particular high point of inanity. Seriously what did they expect him to do? refuse to answer questions truthfully because the truth isnt convenient?
