General Feeling - Stadium Poll

Post by Mysterio » 05 Mar 2019, 14:34

Personally, (if it were to ever happen I’d be so absolutely delighted to be proven wrong!) how do we all feel about the possibility of a new stadium?

I’m not opening it up to a debate, excuses, current reasons (valid or not), but do you personally feel we’ll have a new stadium within the next 5 years? A simple yes or no will tell me how many people can ‘see’ what I think I can see.

I (think) I remember some retail association spokesman saying that last christmas' results were poor against further fading results and the Birmingham Building lost money of late. Add slow take up and Brexit then whatever actually happens the wind is clearly blowing cold at the moment.

it has been said though that the high streets are failing because they can't compete with the large out of town retail parks wit their free parking and easy access and that seems to be the way forward.

Gone for yes.

BTW - A much more balanced poll would be:-

1. Definitely, positively yes - It will surely happen.
2. Yes
3. No
4. Seriously, just no -it’s never going to happen.

lol pointless poll really , this forum i guess is not the view off the wider public in Castleford . People you talk to in local pubs and around town and work have lost faith in it. An official announcement from the club would probably get more people believing not a statement on a facebook page .

As far as the new ground goes let's hope so.

But it's a statement from the people sorting it. Where it is posted is irrelevant, social media gets it to people better than just a post on a website. It's there and it tells us what we have been asking.

its not a statement from the club its exactly the same statement put on axiom facebook they have just copied it. Like I said the club will not officially announce any thing till they have a water tight start date which you cant blame them after the last chairman and directors got there fingers burnt .

Can anyone remember the year we were first told that a new ground was going to be built? Just a question not a comment.

For what it’s worth I don’t see anything to say a new ground will be built for sure, this is why I am in the “I will believ e it when I see it” team just now. Never really got too giddy about a new ground from day one knowing how the club have operated for the last 20 years.

cant remember exact date but about 15years ago, can remember the big public meeting in civic centre hosted by mr right :roll: :roll: he said a new ground would push us to be a top four side . Well probably a bit behind time line but we have come a top four team with out a new ground lol.

Longer than 15 years Flow. Sure it was the end of the last century where talk of a ground down whitwood was bandied about.

Or it was the one less than both of those and it was when the 2nd round of licensing was done and the meeting involved showing everyone the bid + stadium news (the one in Glasshoughton previous to Axiom...That Wright somehow thought could be self funded).

Pretty sure it would have been around 1998 when the first meeting was at the Civic Centre.

There so much more to this build. Actual money spent (30m), plans, signed up parties, a traffic plan and new junction designed. The over head cables put under ground already. Permission to build.
