Do you think you have done that tonight then ?

We'll have to see what July brings! By the way I meant so that the RFL would have to keep both of us in as they will not be ble to separate

Heres how it works Glover buys the ground tells the RFL gets a mortgage on it and tells the RFL he has the funds to do it up which he can show with the mortgage, you get a license most of the plans go on the back burner till Glover sees if Newmarket gets built then he can sell the ground and make a profit. Newmarket does not get the go ahead then it is decision time does he use the mortgage or walk away.

Or the RFL do not fall for it and you put into championship one, the plans get put on the back burner as you do not need the stadium and you wait for Newmarket, if new market does not come off again it is decision time!

“We said at the beginning of the year that we would do everything we possibly could to keep the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats in Super League and this is exactly what we are doing.

This would suggest he has been working on the plans since the start of the year, and therefore was on the application. By waiting until now to announce this, he gives our closest rivals little or no time to adapt their own plans accordingly. I'm still not confident we'll be in Super League next season, as I don't trust the RFL in the slighest and the goalposts still have time to be moved again. But by making tonights meeting so public, Andrew Glover has put greater pressure on the Rugby League, who will have a much tougher job explaining their decision should they choose not to give us a license.

How different is that to the position Cas are currently in?

Re: NEWS FROM TONIGHT'S BIG MEETING : Wed Jun 08, 2011 8:39 pm  

All I want to know is.

1. Has this plan been incorporated in the Licence bid?

2 Will the building work be completed before the beginning of the 2012 season?

Looking at the statement on the website

Wakefield Trinity Wildcats Chairman Andrew Glover commented, “We said at the beginning of the year that we would do everything we possibly could to keep the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats in Super League and this is exactly what we are doing. The biggest issue that we were faced with, within our control, was the stadium, so without wasting any time we have worked hard to ensure that we will have this new, fully developed stadium that will meet with all of the RFL’s criteria in 2012.”


That reads that it will be completed, maybe it is in the Licence bid, if so, it gives us a damn sight more chance than at any time since N.M was pulled in.
