As a follow on from the colour scheme being black and amber, we should also make sure that we have castleford painted on the seats. So you can see it from a distance.Like the football grounds are.

Or if worst comes to worst and we do share, why not welcome Wakey with a red carpet and let them choose the colours and what not .. :roll:

We should make everything Castleford, As though its just our stadium and Wakefield should be considered payign tennants

Although i dont think it will come to this, Neither club or set of fans want the ground share so i doubt it will come to that

I know we don't like the thought about it, but Wakey wont be enjoying it anymore than us .. for one if they don't ground share then there future may be in doubt so they'll be very very worried, which pleases me :)

does anyone know the probable financial arragements of a possible ground share?

As Wakefield are unlikely to be contributing capital to getting the stadium built, would I be right in thinking we could draw revenue from their 'home' matches?

When we played Catalan at home they bought 5 people, but when they play at home thats a totally different scenario, they have achieved good attendances this year more than us i believe/think and a few other clubs too.

I personally think that the Pole Rats should be kicked into the Northern League One as a result of there mis-managment of the ground at Thorns Park and let Widnes In.
If i was a widnes fan, i would be kicking the door in at RL HQ after all, they missed out to let in Celtic, why cant wakie be booted out for widnes, they will provide a better platfrom for the game.

I like everyone's confidence but it would appear that the panes in our greenhouse are well and truly smashed.

What am I talking about? The fact that we do not yet have a stadium and until it's confirmed, we are in the same position as Wakey and therefore should not be throwing stones.

As it was stated by the RFL, WE (castleford) have a plan B if the stadium idea goes to the wall, Also in the statements from the RFL it was put that Wakie Pole Rats could of done with a plan B.


Well, well, well. Because of thier miss management they sould not craw into our stadium. Why should we, they were protesting against our stadium from the outset. Isn`t time a funny thing.

Get Widnes IN

IF we were to get the stadium, I wouldn't have an issue with Wakey renting it for their home games, however sharing it implies joint ownership which would be out of order considering the investment already made by Cas.

Apparently RW hit the roof when the idea was put to him, or so I heard.

Good on RW, there's no way we should be sharing it after all the hard work already put in by the club, ok let them rent for a while until they by hook or by crook, get a new ground of their own, but our ground should reflect that it is Castleford Tigers ground and should be defaced with Wakey colours or livery inside our outside OUR ground.

The panes have been smashed, the frame bulldozed, and a house of cards erected in it's place.

I am more nervous about the statement on the 30th than I was about the franchise results. The RFL are not beacons of honesty and transparency but compared to the machinations of local government.............

The rollercoaster ride hasn't stopped yet.
