I can see thousands of these selling, not everyone will be buying just the odd one or two. Its going to cost me a few quid for the family thats for sure

Excellent idea, the fact that fans have put this forward and the club has listened is good news too. Some people i have talked to think the price is a bit steep but considering it will last a life time and it means you can say 'i did my bit to get the ground built' i think its a bargain.

As i put on the other forum i also think you should be able to buy a brick from wheldon road (and maybe some of the pitch) as i'm sure lots of people would like to buy there own bit of history.

Ignore the wakey trolls there obviously panicking about having no owners/taxman/having such a weak team/the secretary of state or whatever other calamity they are going through this week.

I have said it before and I'll say it again now. The fans have to come out and back the club. We will have a very important part to play this season and the future beyond and I urge everyone to go out and participate in these fundraising schemes or by buying shirts, STs etc.

The stronger we are, the harder we will be to kick out. Let's not forget that whilst the stadium is important, we have to be stronger as a business as a whole.

i think this buy a brick is a great idear.lots of fans have losted loved ones over the years .WHAT A WAY TO REMBER THEM.my friend and i said a while ago it would be a good idear if fans could buy bricks to help build the new stadium.my self and friends will be buying ours as soon as we can.lets get on as soon as possible and get OUR NEW STADIUM BUILT.

Thing is too, it might not just be Cas fans who want to buy bricks. It'd be great for people from other teams to buy them an see them whenever they play Cas. Albeit nice messages on them.

And local businesses too.

Great idea but a few thoughts:

1. Why the limit on the number of bricks? the whole idea is to raise funds towards a new stadium so the more sold the better-
2. Why so expensive, it has taken it out of the range of many ordinary fans who would jump at the chance, including kids who just can't afford £50, surely 5000 bricks at £25 is much better than 1000 at £50.
3. Why stop at bricks on the stadium wall, a walkway leading to the ground with engraved names on block paving, eg Old Trafford
4. Are the bricks going to be censored to make sure all the comments are suitable? - (Several hundred bricks "We all hate Leeds " - could get a bit repetitive - lol - Seriously who is going to decide what is/isn't appropriate?)

It costs in the first place to get things engraved which is i'm guessing is why it's a higher price. £50 isn't alot at all. It's probably the amount most kids get on a birthday? Not a bad present to be honest? It'll be there for a lifetime?

Someone is probably going to have to check what's on each brick is appropriate too, that'd cost?

Calm down girl , its just a modification of wakeys 'get someone to buy a brick for us ' scheme

Can't wait for them to go on sale I want four.

Reading this thread- it highlights to me that RW is as crafty a spin doctor as Alistair Campbell. I think both Wakey and Cas camps are choosing their words very carefully when it comes to the ground issue.
I hope both teams make it as hard as possible for those crooks at the RFL, I really do.
In regard to the brick idea- Brilliant, I'd sign up in a flash at Wakey!

Thanks but you and your dreamland fans can stop coming on our board now, please ?

Really good idea but why did we not announce this 2/3 years ago? Probably would have created more funds then rather than waiting so long on.

I thought we did about eighteen month ago?

Question, what would happen to this wall if the corners get filled in?

Was wondering that myself...

Do you really think the corners will get filled in?

That's why said if & not when

Probably not, whilst some of yours keep coming on ours.


On topic though, great idea and I only wish we were doing something similar however I'm not sure we could do with the stadium not actually being ours.

Do a borrow a brick scheme , that will fit in well with Trinitys recent history

On the subject of the stadium, it all seems remarkably quiet re full planning permission. Over a month past Dickies Date now...

Does anybody know when they are selling the bricks until?

Should imagine until the stadium is built. I'll find out for you.

That would be fantastic - Much appreciated.

whats the latest with the stadium, is there full planning permission?, is all the funding available?, is all the preperation work done if started, whens it due to be started ect thanks
