Come off it, quite a few people on here have info on the ground that the club would not want them to have. It always happens, it's just the way it is.

Could it really happen after all these years of seeing various plans for Belle Vue the various rumoured locations that never came off, the old stand at York and Warrington etc, this time I am getting excited could the dream finally come true
I know nothing but I have a gut feeling the good times are just around the corner

I can assure you that they are 'very unlikely' to know the whole story. In fact I'm sure there'll be surprises for me yet to come!

| Good to see such positivity [ and humour over what will hopefully and eventually be good news for you
Excellent thread
When it is announced dont start going down the Salford trap of believing everthing you are told , just keep faith that eventually you will get something to be proud of
All the best

Drove down there last night on my way home for a look, and there is a very nice stadium sized plot there with a new access road as you say.
I would still have some concerns over traffic coming off the motorway. I know somebody earlier said that it wouldn't be an issue because of the numbers of fans we get but surely one of the reasons we are moving is to increase the numbers that come through the gates.

I’ve been down there a couple of times over recent weeks, there is a very nice plot just prime for a stadium. With regards to traffic issues there are two other ingress & egress points from the site. Dewsbury Road and through the industrial estate to Alverthorpe. Not great but I don’t know how many alternatives are available to the club.
Most new ground I have been to have issues with congested traffic so Wakefield would not be alone;
KC Stadium
Galpharm
JJB
Keepmoat

Ok Phil, any chance of the announcement being on my birthday, April 5th. It would possibly be the best present I would have ever received.
Also will those sad souls who stood outside the Town Hall last year get priority knowledge? .

Hey, don't get me wrong I'm not trying to put a downer on things and I would be as delighted as anyone if this was the location. It was just a concern that I thought was worth mentioning.
At least we don't have any NIMBY's to contend with up there.
Bearing in mind that they are talking about developing the land opposite the top of Broadway into a huge housing estate the planners can't be too concerned about traffic on Dewsbury Road anyway.

What makes you think that?
There'd be NIMBYs if the proposed site was the Sahara dessert.

Not suggesting you were. Issues and concerns will arise with all locations and no doubt there will be NIMBY’s where ever something like this is proposed. The people who live nearby may take exception to the potential street parking.
Also do not discount the local lunatic with his over zealous concern for roosting bats.
