- Install a new 3G playing surface (can be hired all year round generating an income; can also be used for training and would free up need to pay/maintain Tong)
- Build a new covered terraced stand over top of existing popular terrace, install hospitality suite at top which is needed for IMG.
- Mothball Rooley Lane Terrace to reduce capacity
- Seek long term investment to refurbish Southbank Stand (maybe to include new open terrace)

As a comparison, Wakefield's new stand cost £6m and seats 2,500 plus hospitality. We would need stood capacity of 5,000 minimum.

Not sure where you got that figure from but Wakeys stand cost over £11million, with another £1.2million for the floodlights, 4G pitch, big screen & half the north stand terracing. And the stand still had to have cutbacks on the original plan to fit within budget. sadly you don't get much for £15million these days.

Better to start afresh on a new site. £30m of my euros rollover winnings will see us get a nice smart Halliwell Jones type ground. The Trevor Foster Stadium has a nice ring to it.

Throw into the mix that just about everything has gone up massively in price over the last few years.

Best we can hope for is a bit of glitter thrown over the old girl. I'm certainly not getting my hopes up for a state of the art new stand that it badly needs.

My mistake... I thought I'd remembered someone say the council had footed some of the £6m cost of the stand, but on looking I can see they invested £6m into the £12m project.






Don't think i'm biased...
...i'm just very narrow minded!!!!!!!

Council have given us £2m towards the build, Cas & Fev are entitled to the same amount each to make up that £6m.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!
