makes you wonder hough if something is not in the wind .the club were disappointed that they had to scale down the southstand plans,then all of a suuden its put on hold

kirkstall Forge site anybody?. Could open a rail station there too, and still in North Leeds. The whole saga with the local residents and the Southstand, and the huge cost of replacing the North stand means it maybe cheaper to up sticks and move.

Have they shelved the plans to build the urban village at the forge. Also further up on the right side of the river between Rodley and horsforth the massive old mill

A site in Bramhope would suite me just fine, in fact anywhere in the LS16 postal district - I'm not that fussy.

I was going to say Headingley is very handy,but I dont live just off Broad lane any more,but it does look like we are being left behind

didnt carnegie / wpb try and get permission more or less opposite the lawnswood arms?

if i were a multi billionaire and money was no object at all, id build 100,000 seater mega stadium for the city (for Leeds utd and internationals, finals etc...) and a 50,000 seater stadium for the Rhinos. All part of the same complex, it would have to be somewhere that's big enough.

But id slash the ticket prices to a fiver to get the numbers in and provide free regular buses from various locations throughout Leeds

my aim would be to get the stadium full every time. giving away seats for £1 if need be

i suppose i can dream : )

I was talking to someone form Caddick last week who said they are definitely doing the South Stand next year.

If we are day dreaming, then may i suggest Otley...it's lovely in Summer and we have lots of fields too!

If money was no option, I certainly wouldn't limit it to 25k seats.

I don;t see why we think a new stadium is needed or even feasible. We have a good stadium in a good location. We can upgrade it as necessary. We are hardly likely to walk away from headingley afetr investing a large wedge into the Carnegie stand in the last 5 years.

People may like these shiny new stadia, but personally I think most new grounds are souless, and have a limited atmosphere.

Some serious hardball needs to be played with the LCC so we can get back on track, luckily we have just the right man in charge for the job.

Yes, yes and thrice yes, couldn't agree more. The new stadiums are a novelty at first but soon become boring when you're visiting the same identikit stadiums every week. This thread is like a dagger through my heart, I couldn't stand the thought of moving from Headingley which has history,memories and an atmoshere all of its own. Behind Wembley i would say Headingley is the most famous ground for overseas players who all relish the chance to play at the possibly the most famous Rugby League club ground in the world.
