Go get your tea, your getting boring now

Oh, so I have got an acchitect to draw me some nice plans and the local council have said they are fine.....oh shi7....where's that £30,000,000 I thought I had to pay for it


As for being a tool, I am a tool( AVAILABLE IN ALL GOOD HARDWARE SHOPS)......... who is well able to put aside stupid rivalry, admit when my team are wrong and not just spit my dummy out because I believe MY team have a god given right to be in the top flight.
You sir, are not even stocked in a pound shop! HTH

1. It's costing HALF of the number you put
2. There is funding from a few sources
3. Cas have more "right" to be a SL club then Quins (so do Wakey)

But lets not let that get in the way of your inane unfounded ramblings eh?

Teams up to now earned the right to be in Super League by their performance on the field. Up to now Harlequins fulfil that criterion as do Wakefield and Castleford.

Their is no 'other' right

No I don't suppose he will be!

and neither would anyone think that Castleford would share a stadium with Wakefield if it were at Ossett or some other location west of Wakefield City centre.

Stanley however is in virtual no mans land between the two.

You have outline planning permission
I could get outline permission to build a life size replica of the eiffel tower in my grandads alotment.

I hav'nt seen any publication of feasability studies, though I'll stand corrected if you point me in the direction of them.

A draft design brief
Are you seriously arguing that this is a major step forward?

I have a design brief for a Back to the Future style flux capacitor.
If only I had some plutonium and a lot of cash I might be able to make it a reality.

With a view to full planning permission which will be granted upon completion of architect designs and design brief.

The feasibility study hasn't been published I believe, but has been completed - in fact it was completed last year.

Funding is in place from numerous areas including naming right, sale of the Jungle and another means which can't be said but a few Cas fans know what.

I'm sorry, I don't mean to be over sceptical and I do honestly wish Cas all the best but . .

This reminds me of an old comedy sketch where the police call a news conference as part of their UK wide hunt for the most dangerous serial killer we ever knew. When they get the press's attention they announce that they've come up with a nick name for the killer!

I would like to know how committed the WMDC is to the scheme, they was also committed to the new trinity walk development but made a complete farce of it, after sitting and listening to the meeting they made it clear that neither club would benefit from the WMDC but personally I wouldn't care if they did as long as ours was aided too

Can I just ask, would some of you be acting so cynical if it was Wakefield in Cas' position (whatever position that may be) ?

I am equally cynical about both projects and would be whichever club was involved. Wont believe either till I'm sat in them.

WMDC had nowt to do with the financing of trinity walk, that was down to the developer Modus and the Irish government. Modus went to the Allied Irish bank for the finance who agreed to the deal, however when the bank went tits up in the credit crunch and was nationalised the Irish government pulled the plug on the finance in favour of investing in home developments.
As with our ground WMDC were really only enablers in bringing the relevant parties together, spending our money on the development was never on the agenda as far as the council was concerned, just as it isn't with our new ground, so commitment from the council will only go as far as helping to cut through the legal stuff as quickly as possible, the rest, as with Cas, is up to the developers, and their commitment will decide whether it gets built or not.

Fair enough.

Absolutely!

Usual blinkered argument from both sides, we all need to wait and see IMO.

Don't get touchy. Just a simple question.

You've taken it the wrong way.

Its like watching Jackanory all over again reading some of this thread

No point in answering "if" questions

You gave a simple response as well. Whooooosh!!

Is that asking Wakefield council to build some sports facilities on the complex or has that rumour been quoshed a while ago.

I don't get this "we've got this we've got that you'll have to share with us " business. I hope we both get stadiums and just concentrate on playing Rugby League and beating each other on the field.

Proposed cas stadium = privately funded development owned by cas and their partners

Proposed Wakefield Stadium = A community complex including stadium and sports science college situated in the middle of the WDMC area providing first class sports facilities for the whole area, run by a community trust funding provided by grants, trust money and sponsership. Trinity have agreed to play there but all clubs in the district RL RU Football can use the complex if they wish with it been a community complex.

Wakefield council will not directly fund any project but will help with planning etc. cas are ahead of us at the momunt as they've had planning permission for the last 2 -3 years and have pictures of the project. The community stadium was only announced a month ago but things are moving fast.

Is all the above as we stand at the moment?

Nearly, Cas will have community facilities in the stadium too though.

Privately funded community facilities? or Wakefield council funded?

Dunno, just know there will be a swimming baths, gym, some classrooms for schools to use and maybe a NHS drop in.

They will be starting work on it then come Monday.

doubt that very much!!!!!
