I was looking at the Salford Star tonight and noticed that they have updated one of their articles with an official statement from the council it seems the Star was right and it will be only a 12,000 stadium.
No wonder they kept their mouths shut when sky asked. I hope they get it built soon otherwise it will be 5,000 and we will be sharing with Swinton.

| So What they have always said it would be increased in the future, we have to have a stadium of 10,000 capacity, so it meets that, plus Salford star has a massive grudge with Salford Council, so any story that looks like it can have ago at Salford they will run with it, they also don't like John Wilkinson because he supports Hazel Blears.
If it was left to the Salford Star, the ground would not get built, they kicked up a fuss about the council helping out, also the City of Salford would be bulldozed into the ground, its a nice article but nothing new really.

| Erm it was on the Stadium thread ages ago, stage one is 12,000, which can then be extended to stage two, 15,000, and extended again to stage Three, 20,000, if needed or viable ect. Think this could do with being moved to the stadium thread tbh.

So much doom & gloom re the club makes me question if you are a supporter or just a constant whinger who likes to kick a dog when its down.
A previous poster has pointed out the salford star has no allegience with Salford Rugby club or our chairman, so will constantly look for negatives about the club to basically stir the s##t, & of course, we all know what is printed or said in any media tool is gospel truth
As for your vitriolic castigating of the chairman & other directors, I personally dont think we need supporters of that ilk. Im all for constructive criticism when its needed but to constantly put the boot in, as you do really p##ses me off.

| I pointed out the article the other week re the 12,000 stadium, and no where in it did i read the Star calling the club. I would suggest Billy Bradshaws Mum et al, actually read the article properly. The council all along have said it will be 15,000 at first and then 20,000. They have released press statement after press statement saying this, which has been printed nationwide, and as the Star as shown since the plans were submitted. Show me a press statement saying the ground will be 12,000. The first I saw was in the original article on the Star which i linked on the turkey and when i looked at the plans myself.
I quote from the article
Finally, I feel really sorry for the Salford City Reds staff who have battled hard for this new stadium, who take all the flak from the fans, and this week the media, because it's not their fault. It is quite clear when you look at the plans that this is a Peel and Salford City Council venture, the Reds are the tenants as it is a community stadium. ]
How the hell can this be construded as calling the club? It can not and is not. You may not like the Salford Star but in this case it has run the truth and ]shown the evidence]. Which is what i thought the media especially local media was for. Again no where have I read in the article the author saying he didnt want the stadium building.
]It is quite obvious where the author is coming from, the council has not been forthcoming with the full story and that is the point, the Reds seem to be the victims to as well as the supporters. ]
I must say you must be living in cloud cuckoo land if you believe that once they have built the ground they are then going to close it to add new tiers then change the floodlights to make it 15 or 20,000. Why dont you look at the pictures the difference between 12,000 and 20,000 is huge. Also which the star pointed out in the visulisations there was no images for the phase 2 stadium. Just 1 and 3. And it is clear the council said we would get 15,000 and planned for 12,000. If they can put 12,000 seats etc in they can put in 15,000. Whats the difference? We wont be getting the cup semis in a 12,000 will we?
As to LanceTodd being called for putting up an article, when Pev i think put up a link to the Bulldogs re what they were saying about ryan, tandy and patten i didnt see critism was that because it was good news?
Finally I would suggest to Billy Bradshaws Mum that as a senior person in 4eva Reds and unoffical media person for the club she should refrain from telling people who are fans and who are not. Incase she damages our franchise bid further by cutting our dwindling support more.

No, that was because Pev is a reasonable, sensible poster and lancetodd is a miserable, whiney little turd.

| Gruffy, I cant see in my post saying that particular article was calling the club, I was refering to plenty of other stories written in the salford star over time that are always very negative to the club, John Wilkinson in particular.
As for living in cloud cuckoo land, to think the club/council/peel would eventually increase the capacity then Warrington must already be in cloud cuckoo land as that is what they are proposing to do at the Halliwell Jones as they have realised their capacity is not enough.
Oh, & didnt Man U also increase their capacity without much disruption to all their fans.
Lance Todd continually calls for the chairman & his directors to vacate the club which makes me think he doesnt want a club to support, because the money people are not queing up to buy him out, so no John Wilkinson = no Salford, simple as.

Bolton Wanderers similarly increased the capacity of the Reebok Stadium without any disruption to fans at all.
Cloud Cuckoo Land certainly seems to cover quite a few areas?!

So capacity will be about the same as the Willows is now.

Why would anyone support her though? She's trampled on many people yet people love her?
