The RFL may not as such be the villains here, but would it hurt them, if they are genuinely concerned about the club, to show an interest and attend some of the meetings the trust and council hold

They're so not!

Been supporting our team since 1960 and so upset at what appears to be the inevitable. Just hoping for some miracle.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see you moving to Odsal next season it would get the RFL out of the mess they created at Bradford

No thanks. Odsal is in a worse condition than BV.

Its really not. The terrace is in pretty good condition. Odsals naff with the away stand 10 miles from the pitch and it being -10 when everywhere in the country is enjoying 20 degrees. Very little atmosphere due to its size and no roof. But the state of the terracing, stand is in pretty good nick. Anyway don't want to get in childish arguments who's stadium is worse.

Feel for your chariman and team. Wakey are actually one of the few teams i enjoy watching in SL. From outsider looking in looks like the developer is deliberatly trying to avoid building the stadium. I hope you get it sorted as MC is an honest chairman who deserves it. If we had an owner his honesty, we wouldn't be in the state we are in now. Good luck!

Wakefield was always one of my favourite away days but going there this season to watch my team v Sheffield you realise how bad the ground is when there's not that many in it . I really can't see you been thrown out though plenty of football grounds available around your way

Re: D-DAY Monday! : Sat Jul 29, 2017 8:56 pm  

Can see them telling us to play at another ground next season until new ground built only way I can see playing at Belle Vue next season is if it's tided up and council can garentee new stadium is happening.

There's not too many football grounds close; it's pretty much limited to Leeds and Barnsley. Current RL grounds close by who are closer to meeting the standards are Featherstone, Castleford, and Dewsbury

I just love your optimism.

Personally, if the R.F.L. were to kick Trinity out of S.L. on a "technicality" I would just walk away.

Relegated on team performance, fair do's, seen it all before, but on facilities, really!

I remember the old terracing, it was practically a slope, did I care, of course not, it was only about the game.

So if it all goes "belly up" shame on the R.F.L. & shame on society.

Here is a honest question, if say RFL decides from next season to revoke your membership to SL. What happens to the players and staff do their contracts come null and void like it did with us at Kr. I like Wakefield only for sentimental reasons, my dad who died 2013 was born there and after being a miner went on to help build bell vue, he always supported both wakey and Kr.. I have a feeling due to SL wanting 13 teams to include us, but don't want to lose money does anyone think you lot could become victims And lose your SL status being replaced by us just a thought
