Thing is, i love grounds like Castleford. I know it's not moving forward but it's just a personal preference. It'll be a shame when all these "quaint" stadiums are gone. I guess i'm a bit flatcappy in this regard.

| The RFL must be extremely embarrassed if they have resorted to this - the stink over us being rejected, coupled with a complete lack of action by certain SL clubs stinks of somebody looking seriously stupid (Take your pick youre spoilt for choice.)
Maybe they are aware that to reject us again would possibly incur a civil case?

Castleford is one of the better slums. I noticed a thread about Thrum Hall on your board the other day. I preferred that to the Shay. It was one of the most atmospheric grounds I've ever been to. But progress is progress, and modern stadia do tend to attract more fans and a safer environment. That is after all a good thing isn't it?
The Willows, and where it is situated is a different story. Belle Vue isn't exactly a pleasant experience either. They present a terrible image of the game too. A club like Saints playing at KR just seems unforgivable. They all need to be replaced imo.

I've mixed feelings about this. I'd like to think that if we perform well that we will be given a Super League license but the reality is that this is probably not the case.
Therefore we are in competition with other clubs and as petty as it sounds our best route to Super League is if Salford, Wakefield or Castleford do not deliver on a stadium. Personally I would not like to see any club fail and be demoted but if it came down to them or Widnes then I'm sorry but it's Widnes!

Listening to this a year on, he really does emphasise the importance of the stadium especially with regards to Salford and Wakefield. I think fans are trying to console themselves thinking that they are only a couple of points on the criteria but I think the reality is different.
The reason my feelings are mixed is by us having become eligible so soon we have almost given these clubs time to go to their councils or whoever and say that either they give them a stadium or they will lose their place. Basically give them time and the motivation to rush a stadium through.

| I think Widnes is very likely to get a license next time. The RFL need to demote some SL club to keep its power in its relationship with clubs (what's their threat worth otherwise?). I don't see Toulouse going up alone, understandibly this would not look good to the CC English fans. So I see Widnes and Toulouse, and two of the clubs warned going down. In some sense, I think the RFL is preparing the ground for such a decision with this warning. Warn three clubs, remove two... and bring two new clubs. Nobody will say that the RFL did not respect its words.

We'll see how many of them like the idea of Celtic being in once they realise it might be instead of them.

And doesn't it give you an ever so slight feeling of smugness after all the e that's been written on there over the years? We all could see what was coming, even if the s who were blinded by Dicky's vision couldn't. 1 year on and the Vikings are looking stronger than ever, while some clubs are still floundering.
We're best of staying out of it and concentrating on our own efforts
