You would be wrong then, we have been through the mill enough times to know how bad it feels. You sir are a fool.

Re: Stadium : Tue Mar 20, 2012 1:37 pm  

Can someone please clarify the current situation, my impression was that late Feb the food people were to hold a board meeting and then RW would announce the good news( Taken i believe from what RW said at the meet the directors do).

So unless im mistaken its now the 20th March and no news ??

Anyone care to enlighten me ( PM me the latest rumour if nec )

and please no back biting from the usual "should be on stage were that funny" mob

That was also the impression I got from the CTSC Meet the Directors night. But as you say, it's not the end of February any more...

Could the announcement of a third supermarket site have anything to do with the latest delay in an update of whats happening with the stadium plans ?

I think thats a safe assumption. The operators interested in building in Castleford will review every site in depth before making a decision and if rumours are correct in addition to the three sites already vying for a supermarket theres another two possibles that have come forward along with another supermarket to the one widely mentioned and using an alternative developer to Opus. So everything gets delayed that little bit more while everyone jostles for postion.

FWIW I think Opus are still in prime postion and an operator will sign up within the next couple of months. Whether a rival signs up elsewhere with another developer or just walks away remains to be seen.

So yet again RW issues a statement and fails to fulfill it, why oh why does he do it??

How long can we keep letting this man make an embarrassment of our club.

Our club ??? you have shares then binks ???

I think you will find its their club and we are just the customers, very loyal customers but thats all.

RW is doing the best he can with a poor hand, trying to finance our ground without the freebies other clubs have had and are in the process of getting, good luck to em I say. But when we get our stadium , it will be something to be proud of , not some scrounged real estate that we will never own.

Cut the BOD a bit of slack they would not do anything to harm their own investment.

And dont forget , the season starts sunday withan 8 point win over the cod heads

No slack sorry he is the leader who sets deadlines and hasn't achieved one yet!! If he worked for me would i accept failure to achieve deadline on multiple occasions

Its time for the truth no silence, by nature im an optimist but im not a fool.

Is this the part-funded stadium at Glasshoughton that will never happen without £2million from the council and funding from Opus, who are only doing it as way to get a large part of the whole, very profitable, Wheldon Road regeneration pie? Or is this another stadium you are on about?
