Harsh on Steve. He's a man of integrity. He was around when RW made promises, so I think he'll have learned from that.heritage1926 wrote:As much as Steve Gill as admittedly turned the club around, he is living in a dream world when he said we would be in a new stadium by 2020.

The building market is starting to turn around. It has highs as a lows, with Brexit making it harder and volatile, it may take a while longer. Until the banks give better interest then funds make ideal sense.

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
I cant believe anyone is still belkeving this will hapoen after so many lies and false dawns. No nearer now than when it was first mentioned all those years ago.
Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
hope a bit of work as being done on the ground in the off season we all know its on its last legs but no reason not to have running water in all the toilets and other things that could be done and would cost little expense

Cogito ergo sum a person who has integrity does not tell lies mr gill has done so not my say so but in fact his own admission in the Indepependent 6/10/2017 I would go as far as to say he is lucky to still be in his post you cannot have a working relationship with a board of directors when you admit to lies they will never know what’s the truth or a fabrication

People need to be patient - I appreciate it's hard but they don't just get built overnight.
A number of times we've said on this thread that the plan is to start in the Spring on the site and the first part is the highways, infrastructure and groundworks.

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
Completely wrong. SG has continuously said he will NOT put out news to appease the fans. The club is reliant on Lateral and the people involved to dictate when things should be released, and the club will only release news when there is news.heritage1926 wrote:As much as Steve Gill as admittedly turned the club around, he is living in a dream world when he said we would be in a new stadium by 2020.

There was an update nothing more than a month or so ago in League Express which clearly stated that the financial backer had pulled out but a new one had been agreed and put in place.
It also said there were a number of new retailers to be announced and that the electric pylons had moved.
The club is in catch 22. They say we're moving in by X and people get upset when things are missed. They hold back and don't release information, they get told they aren't getting any news.
There is an outstanding pending application for the car garage, which is still awaiting the Planning and Highways Commission to determine. The council have just had a break for Christmas. It is now overdue.

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
There was an interview with him on Look North i believe, where he clearly said we will be in a new stadium by 2020 and that we only have a matter of so many games left to play at WR? either he's a confident man and knows something we don't or he's telling the fans what they want to hear!HuddsTigers wrote:Completely wrong.

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
I haven’t taken too much interest in the new ground scheme , as I don’t really wish to move away from Wheldon Road , but I do believe if SG has stated they hope to be in the stadium for 2020 that’s what the developers have told him, and he is only relaying the information he is given. But to say he’s lied is out of order.

Hudds thanks for your input, but a number of posters it seems, would have us believe Rome would have been built in a day, if they had been in charge of the construction.

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
Anyone know how long it took from getting planning permission to actually playing a game in the saints and Warrington stadiums.
Just want some sort of comparison.

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
Dont get built overnight? Try dont get built over a decade. Does anyone know when the club first decided on a new ground. Just the year will do.

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
So if SG has categirically said he WONT give timescales and some people saw/heard him say "New ground by 2020, not many games left at WR" then which one is correct?
Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
Best for steve gill to make no promises of when were going to be in new ground just make announcments when he can ...people still remember richard wright every other week in the ponte and cas making a statement the new ground was on track and a possitive statement was about to be made when in fact there wasnt a snowballs chance in hell of it happening

Re: New Ground for Cas or NOT !
I’ve just looked at my notes from the last AGM , and it was said even though they were hopeful of being in the new stadium by 2020 it ultimately was down to the developers, but the BOD said whatever delays or obstacles faced , they would not skimp in investing in the playing, coaching or administration staff. It concluded by saying they would also neglect Wheldon Road , and it would be a fitting tribute to the stadium to bring a trophy back before we moved . Hope this helps

You can’t compare the projects they are completely different.
