Chris22 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Sounds positive. Might not be a new stadium but Widnes redeveloped Naughton Park into a more modern stadium with time and I hope Wakefield can do the same. 1 Twitter: @TrylineUK Latest Blog: Leeds' Indian Summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New floodlights already installed, New East stand with everything in it, re surfacing north stand terrace. Community hub/ gym etc in South East corner. 106 agreement signed by all 3 parties 8.3 m released by developer plus I think the 2m by the council to fund the development.

cookey Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 I'm delighted for Wakefield, they now seem to have their future in their own hands. Owning the freehold is key, as is generating non match day revenue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owning the freehold is key, as is generating non match day revenue. As long as it's net-profitable non-match day revenue. No use having revenue if it's less than costs. I'm interested in that drive, that rush to judgment, that is so prevalent in our society. We all know that pleasurable rush that comes from condemning, and in the short term it's quite a satisfying thing to do, isn't it? J. K.

Scubby Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Are there actually some images now around how it will actually look as opposed to those line drawing from ages ago? Would be interested to see how it looks from the road side too as that is a big billboard for the club if they get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up the Trin Reluctantly yes as i go to all my teams away games, fortunately i never have to pay or pay full price for the experience, although at only 5'11 i may consider bringing some stepladders this time to actually get a glimpse of the pitch.

That's because your club is a sham club. You exist only because Sheffield were sacrificed to save you. You are a cuckoo at a soccer stadium. You are a soulless shell of a club, propped up on the cash and goodwill of an ageing benefactor. You cling to the notion of a meeting being held in your town, due to it's central location, as meaning you are the "birthplace" of the game. You are a sham club and will not be missed when Davy and the soccer club leaves you high and dry. And your mascot's got a massive head. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with all that success, you still you can't enough fans to even need to open the ground up fully. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
