It's Ok Wakefield saying Belle Vue will be upgraded by next year, it's still not going to bring it up to SL standard.

You can roll a t*rd in glitter, it may now be sparkly, but it's still a t*rd

Whilst i dont think we have done everything we could have to ensure we could not be ignored. The debacle today has brought to light the lack of process and irrelevant criteria. I would urge as many peole as possible to pass their feedback to enquiries@rfl.uk.com You can possibly guess the naming convention from there, if you require other members of the RFL. What a sad day for the sport.

Gone up in my estimation has Michael Steele. Bout time he grew a pair and gave it to the RFL. The club cant take this lying down, if Wakey had come down i think they could have accepted it but with Wakey staying in they have to take action.

Allan Rowley at Leigh got slated for his comments three years ago. With the withdrawal of the Crusaders his comments have been vindicated. Good on ya Michael Steele

it's not just Halifax who need to stand up to the RFL, every single championship side should stand together

So Allan Rowley was right after all and Micheal Steele too, time for the two clowns to go I think.

Leave Cas out of it. The RFL have made clear that the economic climate has made it extremely difficult to build new stadia and accept that Castleford have made "significant progress" towards the Glasshoughton Stadium, having detailed planning permission to begin building (when we sell WR). Regardless of stadium, Cas will have picked up more points in the system than Fax, having a secure financial management history, a good contribution to the competition, excellent youth development structures and extensive work in the community.
Please don't compare our application with Wakefield's, or yours.

Its funny that because we managed complete our stadium in these tough econmical times.

Not quite sure i understand some of Steeles comments.

Halifax have a ground -- Wakefield dont(i thought the Shay was leased)

Wakefield have been bankrupt?(he must be confusing this with administration)
