A total and utter lie just to boost the creditability of your argument. The truth is, that it won't be economically viable for Fev to build a large SL standard stadium if there is no guarantee that SL rugby will be played there. To make it viable either Cas or Wakey would have to come in on the project. For the record, after the Thornes Park project collapsed Fev did approach Wakey with a view to going it together, Wakey declined and decided to kick on with there own plans.

A small amount of people that live at the end of Newmarket lane that are so small in numbers, won't have much of an influence on the decision making.

Great news! It's nice the club keep making these announcements and that we can see some sort of progress.

GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like this bit.


In the meantime the club has now concluded the first stage of appointing architects for the detailed design of the new stadium and have received a number of quality applications. We are reviewing the documentation and the next step is to select and meet with a smaller number of firms and we anticipate appointing our chosen architects by the end of the month

As a region we are VERY lucky to have 2 teams in SL never mind a third, Although i prefer fev to other so called rival teams in the district they will never have the population or economy as town to support an SL franchise.
Anyone driving through the town can see that to a large extent is is essentially a ghost town.
Anyway as has been stated before the pot for charitable funding is very low at the moment and so a "community stadium" aimed at one area within the WMDC would be outweighed by the very similar venture which is going to be built at J30, but is aimed at the WHOLE district.

It's good news about the unit at Xscape indeed. Millions of visitors a year seeing the plans etc right near the entrance to the whole building



As for the quoted bit, where's everyone who doubted me for saying this news would be released shortly

How is J30 aimed at the "whole" district?

I certainly doubted your ridiculous claims that building work on the stadium will start in November.

Can we keep this one please? It's turning into a classic...





First and most importantly, it's mightly good news about the Xscape display. It's fantastic to see yet further progress and I anticipate the move will contribute towards shutting up a few people's faces in the weeks to come.

Also though...


I hope you're right. I seem to recall they said the same about Thornes though.


Brilliant, just brilliant!






I wish I was a bookie in Fev.

Our new stadium will never be built and we're moving in with Wakefield.

Thornes is a big built up residential area around the park. It had a sizeable population to create a significant opposition. Newmarket Lane has 4 terrace houses and a cottage at the bottom.

Yeah I know the area pretty well. I had a friend lived on Bottom Boat Road.
Like I said I hope you're right.

Things are ticking over, at least.

Nice. So we should have an architect in October. I wonder how long it usually takes to draw up a stadium design ?

www.castigers.com/cgi-bin/main.cgi looks like things are starting to move forward.

The fans consultation is a double edged sword. Great to be consulted, but it will extend the design stage a bit.
