Going back to the stadium- Am I missing something here.I thought the developers had agreed to fund at least the new east stand, dependant on them getting one of their projects passed.I remember John Minards saying he was peed off with a lack of progress, but are we now saying they are trying to wriggle out of it.Because if that was the case we should be calling them out.

I don't know where posters on here get their information from, I assume it's their guess as to what the situation is regarding the ground, otherwise surely they'd qualify and evidence what they were saying?
If the previous posts are true and there is some concern as to progress, you say we should be calling them out - I think it should be WMDC who should be calling them out, because their involvement in this whole affair has been absolutely disgraceful.
The last council leader, in particular and the present one should hang their heads in shame, BUT they are not the whole council, what about the councillors who sit in the chamber with them , they are party to it as well.
Perhaps it's time for a mass protest to our local councillors to demand that they do the job they were voted in to do and make these developers stick to the deal and threaten them with legal action if they don't?

Fair comment 1315.I would say that the only thing we can do at present is be directed by the BOD.We are all speculating until John M gives us the lowdown.

No. Just the usual pointless what's happening with the stadium question somewhere in the back pages.

My thinking if we can ever get her to be present at one of our marquee games n handing a cup over it will be the biggest boost this games has had in years ,never mind if your pro royal or not ,we’ve never had somebody with this high profile ,and still people moan ,and then wonder why the sport is in decline .

None whatsoever but you'd be excused for thinking there was from the amount of speculation on here, which is frankly ridiculous.

They say no news is good news, rubbish, no news is no news, it's as simple as that, anything else is just gossip.

Now that has been commented on by MC I believe. From memory due to installation issues it can't be done during the season as it will damage the pitch or something like that.
