Was really impressed with Featherstone's facilities yesterday. Can't understand why Trinity would move their "home" games into Kirklees when surely their local WMDC neighbours have more to offer.

If we moved to Fev then Box would say we already have a stadium in Wakefield and he could then justify giving us absolutely nothing more. At least being forced to move outside Wakefield would cause the council some embarrassment. However I think Dewsbury although 100yds outside the wmdc is still nearer to Waket than Fev.

Because dewsburys ground is close to Wakefield than Fev and Dewsbury don't have any rivalry with us compared to Fev. As for WMDC it's a council run by inbreds no loyalty to them.

Re: Ground : Sun Aug 07, 2016 5:38 pm  
I read how badly we have been treated by the council but, we all agree that the ground at Featherstone is far superior to ours but yet I don't believe that have benefited greatly from large chunks of public money. They instead of blaming others upgraded their ground themselves rather than letting it slowly fall down. They even managed to level the playing surface, not a requirement at Belle Vue.
I would guess we prefer Dewsbury because it is not in WMDC due to the fact that like some on here it as become a matter of pride with the club the means to prove a point.
I believe the 30 day deadline set by the club must have been reached so I expect we all look forward to a full update of what is going on to we can decide if we want to invest in a season ticket.

Apart from having negligible hospitality, an undersized pitch, (which hasn't been levelled BTW), being a ground that they actually own (so can safely invest in), and having loads of space around the ground that can be developed, then yeah, 100% correct.

As has been pointed out already, if we have a "home" in "Wakefield", WMDC will use it to further wriggle out of their obligations.

A move to Luton wouldn't be far enough to cause WMDC some embarrassment.

Aside from a football stand they nicked from a liquidated amateur club, Fev's ground is awful. It's on a chuffin slope for starters.
