| Quote vastman="vastman"Agreed, but what exactly is he offering to share?
What relevance is a non existent stadium.
I realise they will claim they actually have planning permission, but is that really relevant. I could gain planning permission to build a house made of gold to replace my existing house and invite him to live their. However as I don't have the money to build it, it's a hollow offer.
As such I would hope his comments will be ignored as the self interest they clearly are.'"
Can't wait for fully to come along and justify the letter

| The letter is written in reply to a request and confirms that Castleford were willing to partake in a feasibility study into the 2 stadium projects in the summer of 2010.
This was at the point when Cas had realised that they weren't going to be able to raise sufficient funds for GH and it was an attempt to re-direct funds from the council and from NM to the GH project. SWAG and the club (Ted at the time) agreed that it was not right to go into this without the formation of strict guidelines beforehand. The idea was scrapped.
RW makes no mention of the suggestion to undertake exactly the same type of process previously, dating back to the early formation of NM.
Whatever his point may be, it beggars belief that a fellow club would involve themselves in a process such as this and it is, as others have said, a very low blow indeed which harms the reputation of himself and (to a lesser degree) his club.
We have known about this letter for weeks but have waited until it was in the public domain before commenting.

Unless I read it wrong it goes a bit further than that TRB, correct me if I am wrong but dosn't it strongly suggest there is no desperate need at all for Wakefield to want a stadium as one is easily achievable for them at Glasshoughton should they so choose. This thereby undermines the central issue at the PH and the main reason why WMDC are backing the newmarket development on Greenfield land.
Also the way I read it, he tells the nimbys wakefield have been unreasonable and acted in their own self interest by persuing newmarket and not going along with his suggestion to share at Glasshoughton

I haven't it recently - and you could be right - but I couldn't confirm either.

| Think some Cas fans will be quite disgusted at this obvious attempt at derailing our plans. The RFL should step in and say something regarding this as we are trying to better our situation which progress for Superleague and rugby league as a whole. RW is could be perceived as trying stop progress within our game with antics like this.

| I hope Cas get their stadium and I hope we have a long rivalry between us, but Wright is out of line, and from the Cas supporters point of view as well, not just ours.
I have nothing against Cas, but I have against Wright. I always thought some fans picked on him too much and that it couldn't be as bad as they say....but he has proved them right I'm afraid.
Our enemy's friend is our enemy.

| Cas don't deserve to have a numpty in charge like him. Would gladly join in support of any Cas fan who wanted rid of him. They deserve better than that.

| Someone (more knowledgeable than I) should write progress on the VT, especially the RW part. I think the rest of the Rugby Community should see what we have to put up with.
