Here's a crazy idea.

Some are banging on about the RFL building a stadium as a RL base, for internationals, etc. How about - seeing as they're struggling to get things off the ground - the RFL get together with Salford and build a 40,000 seater stadium designed for and geared towards RL. A compact stadium, a bit like the Reebok, with the seats close to and over the pitch, great for an intimidating atmosphere, and indoor and outdoor training facilities, gyms, etc. Assuming a two-tier design, let Salford use the lower tier only. We could take votes from fans to name the stands (The Karalius Stand, the Prescott, the Hanley, etc...), sell the naming rights (The Carnegie RFL stadium?), and also sponsor the stands (the O2 Boston Stand!). Amateur finals could be played there, schools finals, university finals, Challenge Cup semi-finals, etc.

Hear me out. It's bang on the M60, walkable from The Trafford Centre. There are great bus connections to the TC, and possibly eventually a Metrolink connection. The only issue might be traffic jams, but it's not as though other grounds don't suffer from congestion. It's easy to get to from all the heartlands from the M60, M62, M61, East Lancs, M56, etc. The train station at Patricroft is a bit of a walk, but the RFL could lay on shuttle buses for big games. You could even fly into Barton!

No, it'll never, ever happen. But imo it would be great. Even if it wasn't at Salford.

Sounds good to me. I suggested similar at Leeds due to having a premiership Football team who could rent it. It is just the finance which is the trouble

I think another option would be Bradford! Bradford Bulls, Bradford football, Bradford council, The RFL, a major sponsor, Concerts and events... could help fund something like this.

Preferable to having your car broken into.

Parked just off Old Lane near co-op and arriving back found a few cars,including mine, with windows smashed. Funny thing is nothing pinched even though the young 'un had left the camera in the car, forgotting to take it to the ground.

Obviously not Wakefield fans as next year's season tickets left in the glove compartment

RBS mate, millions of pounds frittered away on high profile sporting sponsorships so their bigwigs could lord it up.

I agree, queuing to get up or down stairs, the ban on taking drinks into the seating area, meant at half time people had to stand in the pokey areas near the bars which was made worse by the queue for the toilets etc. It was shoulder to shoulder in there, i'm sure they're laws against doing that to animals let alone human beings we saw people waiting to et down off stairs but didn't move for 10 mins as there was nowhere for them to go.

An awful ground overall, why can't we arrange or go to a ground that allows a drink to be taken with you to sit down, like every RL ground.
