Thanks,shame,generally it's been a good season for news and positive developments at Castleford would help further.Unfortunately,I suspect it's out of their hands - never a good position to get in to.

fevtom Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I can’t disclose my sources but there’s going to be big news regarding the Wakefield stadium in the next month or so. Personally i’ll still be sceptical until a brick is laid but apparently this is going to be the closest Wakefield have got to development yet.

I know exploratory boreholes have been undertaken behind the East stand over the past month but heard very little else. We've been hearing big news just around the corner for months (if not years) so can't expect anything else but cynicism over this. Coming from a Fev fan though, it might just mean there is something afresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope you’re right Fevtom, not heard anything since we got the ground back. As someone said on here they were doing test drilling behind the East Stand last week.

cookey Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 Hopefully some positive news but please,no more false,broken promises. We all want to hear some positive news but I would rather have no news than false promises. To be fair,the present chap at Wakefield seems a good,sound businessman who hopefully has learnt from others past mistakes. I was actually down in Wakefield a couple of weeks ago and it reminded me of Warrington. I do think good,modern facilities,with a competitive team could generate regular crowds of around 8/9,000 and gain the support of the business community with decent corporate facilities. If so,it would put Castleford under considerable pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I'd describe someone who has bought something for almost twice its actual value (and a few years after he could have got it for a 1/3rd or so of the price) as a sound businessman.

cookey Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 I wish Wakefield well but please learn from the past. Dont make promises you can't keep dont say you are going to do something that is out of your control. Dont say you are going to do something if it is conditional on something else i.e. planning,pre lets etc. Dont say you are going to do something if it is conditional upon funding and the funding is not in place. Dont say it will happen within a specific time frame,if that frame is outside of your control. p.s. make sure that whatever you do do,is revenue generating outside of match days.

M j M Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 There's probably a story behind that choice but not sure what. They used to have the old boardroom chairs from Chapeltown Road up in the top suite of the pavilion, the ones with the 13/XIII logo embossed onto them. Hope they've not been skipped.
