If they're only building a 5,000 capacity stadium how is Super League a possibility in a few years? Surely the club wouldn't be able to fund doubling stadium capacity at such short notice? Would there even be room to increase capacity?

It's disappointing that there's been no in depth report anywhere since the meeting.

I think the 10k capacity was when Licensing was the way ahead.I don't know whether it still remains but the RFL have been to the site [url=https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?id=105758549546153&story_fbid=655957591192910HERE[/url

I hope you are not after my title of 'worrier of the year'.

I think the club and those running it are far in advance of those elsewhere.

I went past on the old don valley on the supertram tonight it is all level now and new buildings is starting to appear so hopefully i wont take to long to construct the new stadium and facilities however whether it is in time for the start of next season is open to question. Even if we were lucikly enough to get in the super league we would probably only average about 3 thousand so we have no need fora massive stadium however looking at the plans there is a lot of empty space on the opposite side of the main stand no doubt we could extend there if we really needed too

Not sure that we want to be playing on a brand new pitch - even a 4G one - in the middle of February. It might be better to leave it until the weather's a bit better.

Whatever the actual crowds, we're going to need space for more than 3000 or we won't be in $uper£eague. Minimum standards are still with us.

Oh so Wakefield are OK though???

They're in. We're not. That's the difference.

Backed by Sir Andrew Cash - how can it fail ?

Before the year is out the all-singing,all-dancing expensive upgrade involving everything,including [ia purpose-built complex to feature a high-quality synthetic pitch, a main stand seating 2,500 and a hotel.

The Sheffield Eagles are due to move into the proposed new stadium in 2017, on the site of their former home.
