Just Browny Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Great stuff, makes sense for them to start researching early. I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Damien Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I know Wigan often do summer camps etc in Cumbria too. Cumbria is one of the games heartlands and it's important that Super League clubs and the RFL help the game there. This is especially so in the absence of any Cumbrian Super League representation.

No the council are proposing to build a new stadium on the site of Workington Reds' ground which would then be shared by Reds and Town, at the moment they are each in their own grounds.

shaun mc Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 There are a number of local councillors who want to stop the development at all costs, regardless of the benefits to the area. They are unable to see past their own noses. They know time scales are tight and will try every obstruction. The main obstructionist is an ex UKIP snowflake. The upcoming local elections will have a big influence on the project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
