sounds to be still alot of 'ifs' 'buts' and 'shoulds' in that.
But i hope all goes well for you. This year your crowds have improved massively and Wakey are an example to how a club on the brink can turn it round (all be it with a rather large investor coming on board)
You might be getting a call from Bradford soon to ask if they could possibly share homes! in this situation - NO! is the answer. |

God you really are a sour old trollop! Let us have our day! - we all know that Barton hasn't been a bed of roses but I fancy that they are more secure now than they were at the Willows. |

Lease costs unknown, arrangements for food and drink concessions unknown, uptake in support unknown.
Based on, everything being an improvement on where stand today which i THINK it will be, we will be in a far healthier state than what we have been, anything more is a guess.
Who knows our lease costs could even be halved yet!!!!

I think the fact that we've achieved a 30% increase in attendances this season would suggest that Mr Glover is working to a much-improved marketing strategy; a few decent signings, real progress on the stadium and a continuation of the good work he's already doing should see us taking 10k to Newmarket without too many problems.
There's a lot to happen between now and then, but your prophecies of doom are misplaced and unwelcome.

Away support should be up at the new stadium. The number of away fans who currently boycott our 'third world' Belle Vue will have nothing to moan about and therefore no excuse not to come. They can drink beer from shiny new bars, eat burgers from shiny new kitchens and crap in our shiny new toilets.

While i agree largely with what you've said bren, if our STs were still "normally" priced our gates wouldn't look quite so impressive.
We really have got to get the mix right, that is the reality.
Anyway back on track WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!  |

No need. However we got the point first time - no illusions for us I can assure you.
What is for sure is the only other alternative simply wasn't an alternative.

Well done to Wakey fans for keeping the faith through difficult times!
How big is the stadium going to be?
Please say it won't be all-seater!
What's the plan for when it'll be ready?
Without wanting to cause a mutual b1tch-fest, what's the likelihood of it ending up being a ground share with Cas?
