If you'd have read the point of the thread on the Cas stadium properly - you'd know it started out discussing an announcement by Richard Wright before the Wakey trolls rolled in as per usual when there's talk about the new Cas stadium.

Like Cas fans do.

By heck it's like a "you started it"



We are your cup final and we are a far better side than you. Get over it

Got to admit boys it is a little like a Hull ' debate ' on there

No it isn't there arn't enough sawn-offs and shivs on show

when wakey dont get a licence next time, will they look at merging with cas?

Probably, but Richard Wright will tell em where to go



Wakefield needs Cas more then Cas need Wakefield.

LOL!

poor soul

Getting to the brick laying stage though is pretty far down the path to getting a new ground there is a hell of a lot needs doing before getting close to that stage.

I agree with those who don't think that it should be needed to have a new stadium to get a franchise point but at the same time I can see why that is included and why it is important for grounds to be modern as much as I love going to the "traditional" grounds.

promises did fine last time

A smug Hudds fan revelling in other clubs who have not been as fortunate as they have...

Cast your mind back only a few short years and your club were in a very similar position to those clubs you now mock.

I just love the atmosphere at the Jungle, you are really close to the pitch and the Cas fans are always noisy. I just hope the new stadium replicates that.

No, Cas fans are the poor souls. You have to feel for them

If you have read any of my posts on Franchising and Huddersfield Smug would not be a description. We still have a lot to do particularly in having a solid attendance figures and some consistency on the field.

What i find concerning is all the promises by some clubs and no delivery if the game of RL is to move on then we need clubs to deliver.

If they cannot deliver then the chance should go to someone else. the Giants included.

Still think you should build a ground a share it bit like Milan do.

I mean your grounds are about 6 miles apart. stick it in Normanton and bobs your uncle. Makes perfect sense

wakefield need to be very careful. if they don't make moves to get along with cas, there may come a day when they knock on the castleford door asking about a ground share and no one will answer.

i really don't see the problem, if wire didn't have the HJ and someone said ground share in burtonwood with widnes i would take that.

it would save both clubs a lot of time effort and money

they need to make some decisions [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NisCkxU544c&feature=SeriesPlayList&p=ED9441CFC963F147&index=0like a boss[/url

You mean a few do and if you'd care to look at the thread on the Wakey board you would see the same thing but the other way around. lets not group everyone together Disco please.

The community trust stadium is planned for Stanley which is in the middle of the WMDC thats why it's been situated there. The Community trust will build not just a stadium but sports science college and other facilities for the benefit of the whole area. The cas stadium is apparantly privately funded just for cas. Good luck to them I hope both stadiums go ahead and we can both concentrate on playing Rugby League.

Around 12 years!

When you came into SL there were promises about improving your facilities. 10 years on it is a shambles.

All clubs recognise the need to have better facilities

Not sure a ground share will help too much re a SL licence.

2 clubs in the same stadium is hardly 'extending the franchise'.

re HKR's ground plans, I think the Nth stand won't happen for some years. We have to do the extension to the East stand which is relatively inexpensive and will increase our crowds. Some sort of roof over the current Nth stand as well to stop the away fans moaning would be good.

i thonk if we get the East stand extended and improve away fans facilities at the NTh end then the RFL will be ok with that come next bidding time.

At the end of the day as long as you are making improvements on a regular basis the RFL can have no argument with Rovers as regards facilities

if you carry on playing the way you are then any issues with your ground will be irrelevant anyway imo

Surely the first issue is sorting out the Bruges End, even if it's just a matter of sticking a temporary stand nearer to the pitch in the same manner as the North?
