Find the part where I said I hope you don't get your stadium?
You maybe looking a fair old while though.
Still if paranoia is your thing then feel free.
If you don't like it take it up with The Clan as at no point have I said this was my viewpoint.
That's not what I said at all.
Your snidey comment describing a brand new, state of the art stadium as 'a bog standard box' however, tells me everything I need to know about your 'viewpoint.'
Beyond that, your opinions are a matter of supreme indifference to me.
I guess you never looked at The Clans post I was refering to then.
I'll link it here for your conevience

The funding from YCP is enough to build a stadium of the correct size and quality to satisfy the RFL criteria for a Grade A rating, but no more!
The funding brought in from grants etc will allow the stadium be built with extra facilities contained within the stands.
Without grant funding we can build 3 box standard stands with little more than toilets and food outlets accompanied by a main stand with hospitality, changing rooms etc.
With grant funding we can build a significantly better facility which has amenities, office space, gymnasiums ECT ECT ECT within all of the 4 stands. If Wakefield Stadium Trust are really successful in securing all the funding available there's a suggestion that the corners could be filled in.
There's also grant applications for further sporting facilities that will rest outside the stadium such as a full sized indoor pitch, 5-aside pitches, hockey pitch, 2nd Rugby pitch with its own dressing rooms and so on.
When YCP say they guarantee a fully funded stadium they mean the basic box standard stadium, when Sir Rodney Walker says we will also need Grants, he's talking about a stadium with bells, whistles, and a feathery balloon attached!
Sorry to P!$$ on everyone's fireworks!
I have even put the involved text in colour for you.
So not so much a snidey comment from me but just me quoting one of your fellow Wakey fans, Maybe the paranoia I mentioned is more evident than you wish to belive
Like said if you don't like it take it up with The Clan.
As I've said many times before - I love the smell of desperation in the morning.
