| Quote ="The Avenger"As I understand it the position is:
WMDC Planning have passed the decision to the Secretary of States office and have delayed them from making the decision until after the General Election. There is an element of the development which sits on greenbelt land and as such it has a 50/50 chance of being called in for a Public Inquiry. If that happens and we extrapolate the timeline using Wakefield's PI as a guide then a decision alone could be 2 1/2 years away.
In terms of funding, the development requires a major supermarket to sign up and that isn't looking very likely at the moment. ASDA already have a presence nearby as do Morrisons. Tesco have scrapped their new store building programme and are in fact looking at closing a number of stores. Morrisons have just posted their worst profits in over a decade and gave also scrapped any new build plans. Aldi, Lidl, Farm Foods & Iceland don't build major stores so that leaves Sainsbury's who aren't showing any interest in the development, don't currently have plans to open any major new stores because they're concentrating on the smaller locals.
Take this how you like, I wish Castleford all the best in building or improving a stadium but it's a long way off and there's some major hurdles to get over.'"
Good well thought out and sensible post but why do you think it would be 2 1/2 years away. I don't think Trin's was any where near as long a wait.

Wakefields Stadium was given OPP by the WMDC in Oct 2010 I think and called in by the SoS in the first week of Dec 2010. The final PI decision was made public around June 2012 so from memory, and I'll stand being corrected, it was about 2 1/4 years

| Looks like we might want to have a re-think regarding the 10K capacity for 5 Towns Park ?

We only seem to hit (or get close to 10k) when we play local derbies & maybe Wigan. Given that we are getting it for free no strings are we really in a position to demand changes at this late stage?.
If the demand is there for increased capacity we do what Warrington did and fill the corners in and fund it ourselves.

Quite correct Avenger as this states :-

From OP to final PI decision nearly 3 years - add to that another couple of years with Yorkcourt not playing ball and you have to wonder if it will ever happen.

Totally agree DS10. I would love to see the full-house signs up for 5 or six games a season. Leeds, Wigan, Hull FC, Hull KR and Wakey would be a start. Bulls back in SL would be another. Sell the Jungle and with the cash put some corners in to take it up to 12K. Ideal scenario.

Apologies to Avenger, it just goes to show how time flies when you get older.

| As I understand it.
The development was relient on.
30 million private investment
Local government support (financial )
Cas tigers to contribute 2 million plus a lot of other bits,roads,transport etc.
There is a 20 million shortfall in private investment
Cas tigers don't have the 2 million.
Local government were hoping for Westminster to help them cover there cost as there is no money in the pot.
The whole thing is a joke it won't happen

I shall bookmark this for when the stadium opens. Hopefully by then you will have grown up a bit though.

By the standards of the debate on here does he really need proof? Cas fans fans seem willing to except the ground will be first to be built under the 106 agreement even though no one has seen it or what it says. I think you should look at the York Court scenario to realise how these things can pan out. I would also suggest you do more reading on the inadequacies of 106 agreements in general. Just a friendly warning against complacency.

| Brilliant news for you. Hope it doesn't turn into a Newmarket fiasco. Keeping my fingers crossed. Incidentally does anyone know if Gingdong likes custard on his humble pie.

| Congratulations, brilliant news - we all love trips to Wheldon Road but she's had her day and though leaving Wilderspool was a wrench I certainly wouldn't swap for the modern facilities at the HJ - really pleased for all the Cas fans
