| Quote bren2k="bren2k"I make no comment on the fairness of it, perceived or otherwise, I'm simply being realistic; I'd bet the farm that another club from a small northern town does not figure in the RFL's plan for the future of SL. Quite the opposite in fact - I'd imagine they would prefer to see fewer. With Leeds, Huddersfield and Bradford in situ and safe as houses, they would much rather WTW and Cas absorbed Fev and took up one spot between them, so they could a) leave London in to continue their field of dreams project and b) include another 'expansion' club, without actually adding any teams to SL.
I say again - none of Fev, Leigh or Halifax will see SL, other than on Sky on a Friday night.'"
The sad thing about the last line is that only the clubs dreaming about getting in SL don't realise how much truth there is in it.

Just give it 2 more years then the cas, fev wakey derbies will be back on a regular basis and in a more honest league. Face it, superleague doesnt want this area unless its under one name , and on evidence on here only the wakey supporters would go for a merger. I suppose they have the most to gain

Will you still think we have the most to gain come a positive outcome to the PI on the 19th of June?
I accept that at the moment cas have the edge by the way, but things will take a drastic swing if/when NM gets a green light.
Cas have really got to come up with the goods IMO or it may well be Cas with the most to lose.
I think in the eyes of the RFL two teams from the area is a struggle, three is a no brainer, so whatever plans/hopes Featherstone have they don't include both of us, and finally just to reiterate I never suggested a Merger!

You can do better than that!

| I think Wakey will get their plans past in June but it will be a good 3 or 4 seasons before the NM stadium is built. If there is a slight chance of NM not happening they are going in the right direction to stay in SL anyway (attendances, recruitment and finance). I'm not entirely convinced NM is the right option anyway. I have always said Wakey would be stronger staying in the city. A move to NM could destroy them. The modifications to Belle Vue look temporary but there might be a way making them permanant. These modifications haven't been done to apppease the RFL for 2 seasons.
As for Cas Tigers - we could be building at GH this year IMO. As a shareholder I know for a fact that playing at NM isn't an option for us - it will never happen and Wakey fans need to get that out of their heads. This also works vice versa - Wakey will never play at GH hence the modifications to Belle Vue. We do have a plan B that doesn't involve moving IMO and I think this could involve something similar to when HKR came into SL - extra seating and better facilities are a must.
Now onto Fev. They a gradually taking away all the RFL's excuses for not letting them in. Their main problem is the proximity of Wakey and Cas Tigers. They won't hack-it in SL anyway unfortunately like Leigh found out.
The possible reduction to 12 teams in SL is a definate threat to all 3 of us but none of us will ever merge IMO - we are too stubborn for that - we would step down first.

| as you are a shareholder, would you care to enlighten the cas fans who were promised that a reply would come in April from Dick Wright thats never happened, why we don't have a stadium yet? Don't give all that bullsh*t for Opus, its Wright's fault he's had these stadium plans since 2001

| We get to know as much info as anyone else. No more - no less.
What I do know is we don't have a stadium yet because there are 2 offers on the table to buy WR. I am not a supporter of RW either but I am yet to see someone else come in to take his place and that in the reason he is voted in as CEO.
