I would like Prince Buster to explain how we would have got a crowd of 7000 for the cas game if we had been at Dewsbury. That game and the Leeds game are the ones we really make money out of (hospitality sold out for Sunday's game) . Does Dewsbury have the corporate facilities? It's been mentioned before that the benidorn flats are too old to move.

We can discuss the pros and cons of both grounds forever. Just to please you I will concede and say you are right we could not get 7100 for Dewsbury, we could not get same hospitality.

However it is my opinion that in the very near future there will be no such discussion as BV will be totally unsuitable for anything.

Lets not forget if it were not for Snowy and his mates we would not have got 7100 in for Leeds, we would be lucky to even get 5000 in the ground. Belle Vue is on its last legs, deteriorating rapidly, we can't stay there much longer, Do you not get it !

The hospitality at Dewsbury is miles bigger than at BV, Plus the facilities are new, clean and modern, the car parking area is bigger, the ground is not in the middle of scrotesville ,

All well and good, but isn't the capacity only 5,200 or some such figure?
Is the hospitality much bigger at Dewsbury? From outside ours looks around 40/50mtrs long, is Dewsbury's bigger than that? I've never been in either.

I think we will get Community stadium sorted at Belle Vue.

Belle Vue is on its last legs, everyone can see that. Dewsbury long term isn't the answer though. We need a stadium fit for purpose that serves the population the club represents. Ideally within the city limits, but certainly with the areas around the city the still class themselves as part of Wakefield.

Furthermore, I don't get what Dewsbury get out of Trinity sharing with them. All they get is a rival who at the moment may be a more attractive proposition to watch. It's their own gaff which they've worked hard to get it to a standard. Why let someone else potentially take that away from you?

Rent money and help with maintenance costs?

I wish the swear filter could add the word stadium to lover, booty and lover. Then we wouldn't have to put up with these pointless threads.

Apologies if incorrect however I am under the impression we are awaiting 88m' proposal on the redevelopment of BV? Wasn't this due a few months back? Which part of the actual proposal is holding us up?
