That was also the impression I got from the CTSC Meet the Directors night. But as you say, it's not the end of February any more...

Could the announcement of a third supermarket site have anything to do with the latest delay in an update of whats happening with the stadium plans ?

I think thats a safe assumption. The operators interested in building in Castleford will review every site in depth before making a decision and if rumours are correct in addition to the three sites already vying for a supermarket theres another two possibles that have come forward along with another supermarket to the one widely mentioned and using an alternative developer to Opus. So everything gets delayed that little bit more while everyone jostles for postion.

FWIW I think Opus are still in prime postion and an operator will sign up within the next couple of months. Whether a rival signs up elsewhere with another developer or just walks away remains to be seen.

So unless im mistaken its now the 20th March and no news ??

Anyone care to enlighten me ( PM me the latest rumour if nec )

and please no back biting from the usual "should be on stage were that funny" mob'"


Think the Board Meeting is still the issue.

So yet again RW issues a statement and fails to fulfill it, why oh why does he do it??

How long can we keep letting this man make an embarrassment of our club.

Our club ??? you have shares then binks ???

I think you will find its their club and we are just the customers, very loyal customers but thats all.

RW is doing the best he can with a poor hand, trying to finance our ground without the freebies other clubs have had and are in the process of getting, good luck to em I say. But when we get our stadium , it will be something to be proud of , not some scrounged real estate that we will never own.

Cut the BOD a bit of slack they would not do anything to harm their own investment.

And dont forget , the season starts sunday withan 8 point win over the cod heads

Is this the part-funded stadium at Glasshoughton that will never happen without £2million from the council and funding from Opus, who are only doing it as way to get a large part of the whole, very profitable, Wheldon Road regeneration pie? Or is this another stadium you are on about?

I have 100 shares and tried to get some more off Robbo , but he is not playing, just talking about selling them.

I think we are all laying too much blame at RWs door, there are outside elements that make the stadium project tricky, Hicksons was a major headache (was that RWs fault). The world recession and fall in land prices (was that RWs fault). Wakey council being skint and not offering the help that Salford got with theirs (was that RWs fault). And countless others

Would you sooner we lurch from one crisis to another like some clubs (no names no pack drill) ?

I think its the time for unity ,not petty squabbling, but then I have always been a glass half full type of person

And your sources for this revellation that it will never happen are ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... still waiting

It would be better to get behind the club than rip it to bits all the time

Why do you think Opus are involved then? Just to make themselves feel good? Its been stated many times in the press that Opus, along with Palmer capital, are providing fuding for the stadium. And I can guarantee you that both Castleford and Wakefield are getting the £2m from the council. Richard Wright admitted this at the meet the dirctors meeting recently. Cas are paying a share but without the 'freebies' that you spout off about it won't happen. Think about it, the stadium is going to cost £13-15 million. In todays climate Wheldon Road just isn't worth that. Where do you think the shortfall is coming from?

"Castleford's biggest home crowd of the 1991-1992 season wasn't quite 12,000 while on average they'd sit around 6000 but the noise, the chanting and the singing just blows you away" - Tawera Nikau "Standing Tall" "I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg

I'm sure you can still buy shares from the club, £40 each minimum of 5, I believe. Try contacting Andy Reed to confirm.

You miss the point Alf , it was Robbo who was selling at 30 quid to get more people involved, but as usual he was not being 100% truthful.
I think that share issue at the club is closed now.

forrard It is RW who continually fails to deliver on deadlines he sets, No one else fault.

I have never said to spend spend spend only faulted him on broken promises, no one believes a word he says he has no credibility.

Its no coincidence the players who promise so much fail to deliver when the root of the problems lie right at the top.

Just because I question what is happening at the club doesn't mean to say im not behind it, democracy is what its called

As I maintain, RW never said a date without the honest intention that he genuinely believed that things would move forward by that respective downfall. He is a victim of his own sword as these things very rarely go smoothly and external circumstances have also contributed.
