GOOD NEWS : Wed Mar 10, 2010 9:41 am  

At last!!!!!!!! Salford council has agreed a joint venture with Peel for the stadium & it was all given the green light yesterday by the council. The MEN states that it will be completed by 2011.

Doubt this will shut the doubting thomas's up, but, as for me & my other half it is fantastic news, can't wait to see it all start.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, dont start adding anything negative to this post, lets have some positive thoughts for a change.

Good old MEN. I assume that means in 2011, unless they are building at world record speed.

Sounds like good news, are there actually any updated plans and images asthink since the orrigional application was submitted things have changed slightly, would be nice to see them.

Can't wait now to see progress on my way to and from work over the bridge.

This announcement removes any lingering doubts surrounding the project, and confirms that Salford City Reds will be competing in a brand new stadium by the end of next year (2011) – a timeframe which will fit in perfectly with our bid for a Super League licence for 2012-2015.
