Yeah, I fully understand that but, 1000's is just utter nonsense.

The artists impressions on how it was going to look, didn't show that many units/retail developments, unless this was just to stop the locals from panicking.

Good luck to 'em, lets just hope there will be some life breathed into Newmarket before too long.

Hopefully the council will push through Newmarket for yourselves. Having both clubs in new stadiums can only go on to benefit the city as they'll both attract more fans.

Love the quote "will create 1000's of jobs"

Obviously up to 1000, would be 100's but 1000's ??, what exactly are they putting on there ?

In fairness, they're probably using the same optimistic formula that all developers use when estimating job creation; the same one that will have been used in trying to get NM through planning!

Just how will Castleford getting a new stadium benefit the city of Wakefield?

Think he meant if both clubs had new stadiums both clubs would get bigger which they would + Derby games would be bigger.

Just because the leader of WMDC and his associates will no doubt be heavily involved does not make it a community stadium for the City of Wakefield.

No - not the plan AFAIAA - hence the question mark.
