Apparently this: www.wakefieldwildcats.co.uk/2011 ... -all-fans/ Turned out to be a roof + a few more seats and a 'lottery'. Given 50+ pages of speculation by the fans this is very mediocre. The decent wakey fans deserved better.

think its a good thing for them, could save their SL future, think Castleford and a couple of others should be looking over their shoulders a bit more

Why would Cas be looking over their shoulders in fear of Wakey? Wakey will not be saved in front of us and tonight's "ground breaking announcement" doesn't change jack.

I think not. It's another pretty picture of something they should have done years ago, only this time it is more realistic and less likely to change their fortunes.

i think it does, you just have have to hope the RFL agree with you and not me

They got into SL in 1998 on the promise of doing the ground up. They got a franchise last time round on the promise of doing up the ground up. What on earth makes you think that this last ditch straw clutching publicity stunt is going to save them ?

maybe they are going to do the ground up this time, and it will be enough till Newmarket is built

No, they got into Super League in 1998 because they won the Grand Final. They should never have been kicked out of the top flight in the first place. And since 1998, they have never finished bottom, so have as much right as anyone else to be in Super League. But then again, this is Rugby League and everything except rugby matters.

Tell that to Whitehaven and Keighley.

Well i wouldn't be confident if i was a Wakefield fan, it is only a drawing of what might be in years to come. One of the worst aspects of the present ground is the non existent parking.

Administration and poor management will be their undoing.

apart from all the free parking on the roadside all around the belle vue area?

i have never had any difficulty parking.

ignoring the sheer stupidity of billing the event as the most important in the club's history AND trying to 'pitch a lottery' it is a promise to tart up the ground...if they get SL status! The RFL have seen this flim flam before.

Wakey fans wanting a long term vision appear to have been short changed (but still better than Ted!)

one very good bit of news for wakey is that they are creating the Club 1873 thingy that aims to get 5000 members.

This will be a piece of **** for wakey. they should get it by licnce d day. After all 15000+ people signed their much vaunted petition. surely 1in 3 of these people will put their hand in their pockets. it is inconceivable that over 10000 people would sign something but not stump up a bit of cash for the cause.
