Round and round we go in circles. Personally im getting bord now, it seems every other topic is our two sets of fans having ago over the same issuses as the last. Why can we concentrate about the important things, like rugby?. What will be will be regards the rest.

Don't always believe what Glenigan's say. As you have already said they only print what they are told, there is nothing to back up what they say. Not saying that Castleford will not start building in 2012 but it will only be someone's estimate of when they anticipate to start.

Spot on. I have to say I'm getting brassed off with all the "politics". I used to enjoy watching Rugby League and genuinely thought it was the greatest game in the world. Not so sure now and I have to say my enjoyment of the game is quickly diminishing with all this crap going on.

The game used to be fun, we all looked out for each other, sure we had rivalries but basically we were one big Rugby League family. Not any more. It sickens me that the only way some can succeed is if others fail and we have fans wishing failure and hopeing for bad luck to descend on competitors in order to get franchises.

Getting sick of it all and I sometimes wonder if I can find something more enjoyable to do with my time and money - but I'm a Trinity fan after all and its hard to give up - but who knows how I may feel in the future.

Best thing to do is, we support our club, cas support theres, they get a ground before us, so what. we get aground before them so what.If we go down then we support our team, they stay up and support there team.simple dont you think. we are trins they are cas, its all this. just get on and follow your, are teams

cannot share ground that does not exist.
cas and wakey should not get franchise. a franchise can be moved. e.g wakey to widnes and cas to halifax or leigh.

The repeated statements from our club about groundsharing don't help the situation.

Indeed, it's it's doing nothing but causing confusion.

I am presuming Oakwell is off the agenda now, we've had two statements from the club in recent weeks and neither have included that as an option.

Well if Wakey and Cas do not get a franchise, then they should let Widnes and Leigh have it

I agree.

i think its time that AG and mr shi...sorry wright went on the jeremy kyle show ..Wright must of course do the lie detector test and a dna sample must be taken from his j c b

Maybe they've gone back to square one and started talking to Doncaster/Keepmoat again? Donny were keen for us to share there before the old shareholders went for the Oakwell option?

It quite funny but sad at the same time.RL used to be the all inclusive sport were everyone was welcome and rugby union used to be the sport you played if your face fitted.Now its seem the rolls have been completley reversed.

I never even thought to look! We use Barbour ABI (for other posters, this is the main rival service to Glenigans) and just checked on there and they have the start down as third quarter 2011 and this was updated on 27th Jan. Their next 'research call' is down for 14th April... probably because Waystone told them last time the called that they were expecting a planning decision by then.

This information is gathered by the companies (ABI/Glenigan) speaking directly to the developer/main contractor involved. They tend to give the correct information, as they understand at that time, because otherwise subbies and suppliers start to chase them before they are ready.

As you state this information does come directly from the developer and my experience is the same as yours... these dates rarely come back, they only tend to go forward. It can only be taken at face value of course but if someone at Waystone has told them that, that is what they are thinking at that time.

Loving the fact that you can't bring yourself to type the 'R' word BTW... this is what rivalry and banter should be about on here and not what it seems to have become due to the RFL generated franchise issues!

Develope Bell Vue put a new stand on the western terrace and repair/renew the terraces.Bring the ground up to super league standard.We will need to get some massive investment to do this work and buy the ground back but its a great location ,great pitch and our spiritual home.

I would love this to happen but i don't think it is possible in the timescale and also the cost of this would be huge and although we are not skint anymore i don't think we have the funds to do this to a sufficiant standard.

Belle Vue is a terrible location for a stadium.

And we don't own it so would have to buy it back on top of paying for the improvements. Non-starter.

I suspect the BoI would take £2m for it at a push!

I'll just crack my piggy bank open and see what i have.



We don't have that sort of money so its a none starter.

BNy 11:45pm tonight I might have.

Sir LyndsayGill does have a certain ring to it.

As an aside the planning inspectorate dates appear to have changed. I’m out on a limb here but I think it's looking like a PI early next year.

I wonder if the reality of the situation has sunk in some what at the planning inspectorate and they have finally realised the potential issues of this PI and the LDF running along side by side could create for them and how much time, money and effort it could potentially waste! These dates looks like it would put the public hearings into early 2012, after the site specific LDF comments (well, legally binding comments!) will have come back from the planning Inspectorate!!! This would make sense to me and I wonder if it is suddenly making sense to the planning inspectorate too!
