No club , or even the game is better off since the start of superleague, since this private members club we as a game have shrunk with the loss of traditional clubs . Thanks mr Lewis , why didnt you stick to tennis?

I think that's a great idea.

No, but I think it puts 2-3k current fans off from bringing their children and partners, that's where the growth will come from.

Sadly, i'm one of these 2-3k who doesn't buy a season ticket due to our poor standards of facilities. I can only make so many games of the season anyway but if we had a new stadium i'd buy a season ticket anyway.

I've stated before that although i love our ground to bits and the atmosphere is second to none, the facilities are shocking in this day and age. The view of the ground isn't the best especially for children.

Will a new ground bring in extra revenue?

Yes is the answer, as a previous poster has already mentioned the 2 3k extra supporters will be made up of people like me. I am a 20 year season ticket holder, my eldest is a 7 year season ticket holder, Ive got a 5 & 4 year old who would be season tocket holders if we were in the new stadium, also Id buy more beer before and during the game if I could get in and out of the bar in under 20 minutes!

Finally if Cas play there cards right and build a big, low cost bar on the side of the ground closest to escape, and market it properly, it has the potential to become another winterseem, generating income all year round Friday and Saturday night. Also could sell food all day breakfasts etc, £5 meal deals, not to mention club shop increased revenue.

So all in all Id say yes, being based at one of the busiest retail areas in West Yorkshire will dramatically improve our earning potential as opposed to being stuck halfway down Wheldon Lane.
