Well initially Wakefield rejected the idea to groundshare with Castleford. But their chief executive James Elston said on the Tryline podcast today that they were willing to reconsider.

To be fair I believe Belle Vue is falling down and the best option would be to share with Castleford if they can come to some kind of agreement.

What do you guys reckon?

Wakefield tigers?

Given the low finances of RL in this country, it would make financial sense for both clubs to share a stadium.

Where do you suggest they share?

Contrary to popular belief, there isn't a ground at Glasshoughton and won't be for 2 years at best.

Really? You know that for a fact?



And with the fourth post, we start to see the inevitable path of these threads.


Still, let's see if this one can buck the trend …

Doubt it.

Of course at the new stadium. Obviously it's not ready yet but when it is it would surely make sense for them to share. Until then Wakefield will either have to find somewhere else.

OK, "at best" when could we see a premier standard ground at GH?

Licencing decisions are due in 2 months; will it be ready for then?

It's not built, so "until then", it makes sense for Wakefield to pursue Newmarket and ground share at Oakwell - a premier standard venue.

Why should Castleford Tigers consider this, We offered it, Got laughed at. So we have prepared our plans alone.

We would be mad to just let Wakefield share now.

I would however be happy for Cas to allow Wakefield to rent the stadium for a year while they prepared a suitable venue for themselves

Share what?

The proposed stadium.

I arent getting into all of this, You havent got a ground business, It will be up. And at the latest 2013, We will be playing in it.

So does he mean share, as in contribute an equal share of cash or RENT i.e. wait for it to be built then pay Cas to play in it?

If it's the former they can bog off, if it's the latter, bring on the extra revenue!
