You all keep comparing the RFL's stance on your club with Quins and Crusaders. Both those clubs groundhsare with other sports and maybe the RFL were and always have been trying to get yourselves and Cas to ground share. Lowering the costs for both clubs does appear to have sound business sense.

So many other SL clubs groundshare, Leeds, Wigan, Huddersfield, HullFC. as well as Cru and Quins.

It may well be that you will be offered a chance to play your games at Cas's new place providing that is built.

Best of luck with your endeavours and I hope you survive in SL and start to thrive in the future.

But by that logic as Wakefield are already planning a move to a shared stadium until Newmarket is built, then a franchise would be certain as well you would think!



PS. Not having a go at you personally mate, but you can see the issues, they are proposing to be almost exactly like Quins and Crusaders!

As things stand, the contract for the sale of the land is complete and SOME of the money due to the club has been paid. Other payments are due at various stages based on the terms of the contract and until all the money is paid we can stay at BV effectively rent-free, although we still have to maintain the ground as necessary & at our expense to keep it operational.



The ideal scenario for Cala is for us to stay at BV for as long as possible to ensure that they dont have to pay out the next lot of money - which would probably be enough to keep us going now.



Either way, staying at BV any longer than absolutely necessary would just cause the financial problems to increase rather than decrease.

Maybe got assurances that if administration happens then it would not prevent a new franchise, maybe they are going to invest when they are not going to have to pay debt off

Nice idea but cant see it with the run of luck we are on.

Wow. The figure has raised by £50k and still no source for either the figure or the claim that it was a loan.



btw, as I understand it, Newmarket, if it happens - and the scheme of which it's a part of doesn't yet have even outline planning permission - will be owned by a third party, with Trinity as tenants. What exactly would Trinity offer as security for a loan? Their tenancy? Clearly not the stadium itself as it belongs to someone else – it would be like me offering a house I rent, which belongs to someone else, as security for a mortgage. I'd get laughed out.



bbtw, I hope Newmarket does happen. And that WTWRLFC are the anchor tenants of a community stadium.

my wife watched the last franchise announcements as it happened and she told me that richard lewis said no team should be ground sharing with any other team from any sport at the next franchise.i did not see this myself so only saying what she told me.also is there anyway of signing nm form other than by downloading form as printer is on the blink,i live about 2 miles from nm.there is support in methley not for the ground but for the jobs it will create.

PM me your address and Ill send you some forms. How many would you like?

?



Think about that for a minute: in 2008 Richard Lewis said that Wigan (never mind Hull FC, Harlequins etc) should move out of their current ground and build a new dedicated stadium just for rugby league, or lose their franchise, all within three years?

only saying what she told me

Please come along to the Public Meeting for local residents at Stanley Rangers next Tuesday evening if you possibly can ... and bring or tell others about it? We need as many people there as possible to show their support.
