More than 50 fans of the club, including the Mayor of Wakefield, urged Wakefield Council to issue a new permit for the Millennium Stadium, on Post Office Road.

The club went into administration in December last year and will not compete in the second-tier Championship in 2026 after the Rugby Football League denied them membership due to its financial troubles.
