Lord Hoyle steered the process but I guarantee that if the supporters had not shown so much will and demand for the stadium IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN PASSED BECAUSE IT WAS AGAINST THE PLANNING LEGISLATION THAT WAS THEN IN PLACE.
If I could find the report I would quote the relevant points verbatim.
I can picture it now; Doug yanks the receiver off the base. 'Get me Prescott, NOW!'
DL: 'John, it's Doug, this calling in of the application for the superstore and stadium, it needs letting through right now'
JP: 'Doug who?' phone goes down.
Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

This is still after 3 defeats this year against 3 very good and practically error free teams in their performances against us.
We're one of the best run super league teams with everything that we do. There is a fine line between winning and loosing and we just need to find the difference. People talk about bring in this coach or that coach, it's not as simple as pick a name and give him the job. Looking at our fans, there are probably not alot of coaches that would want the job.
Only one thing needs to change at Warrington and thats the culture that has been here for years. We all know what it is. Even karl Harrison comments on it in todays League weekly.
Don't boo the coach or the players or Moran and don't hope for us to get beat this week as some of you have. People sing wire till I die and then boo certain players or coaches when things don't go our way. The people hat make desicions about playing staff or coaching staff will make changes whether we want it or not and will do it as appropriate. We should be there to support the club through thick or thin and back the people who have to make the descions rather than continually slate them.
Spot on.
Can't believe that our fans have now taken to blaming Moran. Who next? Wolfie?

Wakefield 48- 22 Warrington.
James Lowes making comments like "We contained them", "I'm really positive about our performance", "Defensively we did well", "We were enthusiastic for 80 mins" and "I'm looking forward to next week".

That is what make this club a laughing stock.
For once you and I are in total agreement. I still cannot believe he said that.

Got it now, thanks.
Simon Moran knows nothing because Latchford Wolvesfan doesn't agree with him - must be true then.
Lets get rid of the lot of them and replace them with LW and his most knowledgable mates because to solve all our problems we don't need money, business acumen or contacts, we just need people who know about rugby league. It's so simple I don't know why we didn't think about that before. It's a shame that none of our former coaches understood the game.
The criticism of Moran is taking things too far. A man who puts his own money into a club that he cares about it, only to be ridiculed by certain 'fans' as knowing nothing about RL.
