“It’s a valid point to make, then, that the RFL could literally turn around and tell us they want us to resign as a member of Super League. That is a real genuine concern. I’m not sure if the council think this is some sort of joke. It really isn’t.” Read more at: http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/ru ... -1-8674027

I can't see why; I think they would be delighted if we sorted out our own accommodation without them having to be involved at all - but it doesn't work like that. I can't think of a team that have moved to a new facility without the support and backing of their Council.

Don't think it will happen myself. They could though demand we resign our place at our seasons end.

Our local government leader should feel really proud of himself and we shouldn't even mention the property developer who has swerved their obligations for so long.

Can someone remind me what the difference is between our ground situation and Cas's from an RFL perspective?

We are Wakefield, they are Castleford #nuffsaid

Councillor Box is. Share holder at Cas
That's why !!!!

Re: D-DAY Monday! : Fri Jul 28, 2017 9:42 am  

I have no idea where Cas are with their development - but it's a fair bet that theirs isn't unfolding like an episode of Game of Thrones, which appears to be where we are. And right on cue, MC has just announced in the press that "winter is coming..."

Agreed, they won't just turn round and tell us we are gone on Monday for the reason you mention. I think the worst case senario is the RFL would review the position at the end of the season, more likely is an edict that we can stay in SL for next year but play elsewhere and new stadium progress has to have been made by a set date next year or will will forgo our SL place.
