| Quote ="Odemwingie"Clubs have had years to sort out this issue.
I heard in Castleford that the council were going to fund loads of developments in different areas, there was a programe on about it, why did the club not tap into this?'"
Very little money was given out compared to what alot of people were wanting, and it was to be used for a new bridge and redevelopment of the town square (and some local parks) none of this money was ever available for sports and wouldnt have been enough anyway.
The council has publically stated it will not give a penny towards funding stadia for cas, wakey or fev.
Its all well and good saying that clubs have had years to sort this out, but clubs in our district have no council support and no football/union clubs to share with.
Can you tell me one stadium in rl that was built in the last twenty years without the council putting money in or that didnt involve sharing with football or union?

May not be one of those two, but it was entirely driven by a major supermarket as stated [url=http://www.warringtonwolves.org/HistoryF.inkHERE[/url

I'm well aware that it was bankrolled by Tesco but it still goes against the "you need a football club or a supportive council" argument.
St Helens' new ground also won't require the involvement of a football club.

But both have had some council ' help ' , maybe not actual financial , you could say ' Blackmail ' in Warringtons case

I hope so, we won the 1st division title and the Challenge Cup in the 1980's. We were almost as good as Widnes

Will it match the last "stand" you built? If so, I'd like to book the last 2 weeks in July, self-catering and en-suite and tickets to the Yellow-coats disco.

If you mean the money generating hospitality suite then no
Fully booked
Only food available is Waitress served 5 course silver service dinner
Just use your incontinence bags
See Daddy Cool about the kiddies entertainment.
Other than that watch out for tomorrows press release regards the new stadium

| Nice one!
Can we use it when we visit? would be nice to see it packed full of Vikings. You just need to sort out that emmerdale shed across the other side (the one with bird muck all over the roof) the skirco............no sorry seth stand is it?
Seriously well done, just need a few more fans now to start filling it out a little more.
Yoof team next on the list.

Massive massive task that one. We have a steady but committed BOD and attention must now move to getting bums on seats. It's a tall order and patience is needed. We have to be breaking through the 4,000 barrier regularly to stand any chance of dispalcing a current incumbent. If we can't do that then we're not offering anything to SL that isn't already being done so by a current club.

I cant diagree with you on that one, our move back to Sunday will hopefully see us get near a 4,000 average over the season. With the team you have you should be entertaining next year and that will put bums on seats, depends how Calland cal gel the team.

| It needs a spark. A spark of something. It worked in 1985 with the Aussie invasion. Crowds boosted to a 6,000+ average and trophies were put in the cabinet. It's even harder now - home entertainment systems and other demand pulls on leisure time makes it an uphill struggle. A big professional marketing budget is needed along with a successful team. That's an awful lot of cash.
