Getting bored of the Wakefield news all the time. It seems they are trying to hold on to Superleague forever.

The council are contributing 2 million to the project.

Because of the community facilities and it being a real community stadium (not privately owned).
They were getting a bargain. No responsibility for upkeep either.

Correct - I'm just dispelling the myth that the council are not required to pay for any of it.

your objections seem to be more about it being in Wakefield rather than any "genuine" concerns.
Wakefield itself has lost plenty and its facilities generally, for a City the size of Wakefield have been mickey poor for years.
Your comments seem to want to deflect attention from WMDC and their lack of action as regards the COMMUNITY stadium, a phrase stolen and used in connection with the Glasshoughton project, when that facility will belong to CTRLFC and whilst some sections of the local community may use some of the facilities, it was NEVER a community stadium.
As someone so keen that "we" have decent facilities, you too should be outraged at their handling of this situation.

The answer to that conundrum would be to have [uboth[/u Glasshoughton and Newmarket as community stadiums. I know it will never happen but for a district the size of ours both would get good usage.
