Suits me. Take the North stand with us, would improve their ground and increase capacity.

I think its a great option and beneficial to both clubs . Not sure what the corporate side of things look like but could the boxes from our ground go with us. Spot on.

Will they be putting up a sign that says "here lies the remains of Wakefield trinity"

Re: Destination Dewsbury? : Mon Jul 27, 2015 1:47 pm  

3,300 cap. From memory both ends are open and not suitable for fans in numbers. Could easily be brought up to standard. Im sure the Dewsbury club have plans to develop the area and from the Ossett side some housing developments are on going. I think its a first rate location with loads of potential .

Re: Destination Dewsbury? : Mon Jul 27, 2015 1:49 pm  

I think we are more likely to put a sign up saying the start of a new era.

Except it's not in Wakefield (just)

No top class sporting representation in Wakefield next year!

IF we move out of the City, it's very difficult to see us ever getting back.
Yes, we will have a team to watch, wearing red, white & blue but how do we ever get back to being Wakefield Trinity, playing in Wakefield ?

Short term is ok but, long term will see Trinity wither and die.
There are of course loads of issues surrounding a ground share as far as how revenue is split & cost of running the 2 clubs involved and we would need a strong presence in the city centre in order to keep reminding people that Wakefield still has a club.

Oldham move to Boundary Park
Swinton to Gigg Lane

Even Fulham, Huyton and York are all cautionary tales for Wakefield.

That it has come to this is a tragedy and many people are to blame but the intransigence of the Council when compared to many other Councils across the country is shameful.

No top class sporting representation in the City of Wakefield from next year!
