Can't believe nobody has mentioned the latest rumour regarding a new stadium.
Residents of Stainburn Avenue have been given letters about a planning application due to be submitted for a new stadium for Castleford Tigers situated adjacent to them on the field near the slip road on to the M62 East.

This was apparently the announcement that was due to be made at the Catalans game which never happened.

Anyone got any more info on this?
Perhaps someone can post a picture of the full letter, I know it's doing the rounds on Facebook at the minute

New stadium planned build is here.
Obviously needs to go through planning first
Not only will it be a stadium but more exciting things
The stadium will be owned by the CLUB!!
The people living on the local street have allegedly got a petition together to rule against this happening
All details will be made available to cas fans very soon.....
That's all I have at them moment.

Also the letter has been put on the Casforum giving some of this info.

Been there, done that, got the T shirt.

Lets not get too carried away.

I don't think anyone is getting carried away. No-one is naive enough to believe this is any drastically different than last time.

Except for the fact it won't require us to fund it.

Good luck to you. Just read that jack Fulton owns the land soaked it more feasible that it would get built. To my great distress I have 2 little granddaughters who go to cas with their dad and I would love for them to be able to go to a modern stadium with decent facilities

Do we really need to do this ? Franchising has gone now - can't we just upgrade Wheldon Road ?

Yes we do because in 20 years time there will be no Castleford time to take the blinkers off and realise it is the way forward to grow has a club.

I agree
As much as I love Wheldon Road. It's time to upgrade or move on. We need to make some new memories

Exhibition in mid march from the people behind it according to the letter. Wonder who that could be ?

No, because we don't have the money to do anything fancy to Wheldon Rd.

Plus it's constrained in the hospitality and money it can bring in. Leeds have hospitality probably 10 times the amount we do on matchdays. That's a significant amount of revenue.

Not going to get my hopes up Fully - too many false dawn's for my liking in the past.

I'm going to sit back and enjoy what looks like been a great season on the pitch and let the new stadium business take care of itself.

They do move quickly seriously it will devalue their properties and spoil their vue, could we not build them a sculpture park with a up yours statue?
