At the last shareholder meeting, JM confirmed there was a penalty clause for a delayed handover, and i did hear from a reliable source it was £10 thousand for each week delay. The official handover was way back in August for the Castleford game, that must be at least 13 weeks ago, £130 thousand owing so far from the developers,
A number of planned events in the new hospitality have already been cancelled, and I’ve not heard or seen any evidence that the internal part is completed or anywhere near completion.

Think you’re being extremely negative to say the least. Delays are not unknown in construction and this one is far from extreme. I’m certain you’re safe for next season by some way.
Reasons for delays can be many fold. It could be safety issues etc. But my guess would be that after Ellis took over he may well have decided to change the odd thing, up certain specs most likely. Hence the delay.
I’m not sure what you mean regarding the inside. There is a full film on the website of the fully fitted restaurant.
