Due to other circumstances Peel come in with the extra money and the ground is built.

If only. Salford CC lent the money to Peel for the build. I think it was a land ownership issue (the land where the retail will stand?) that got Peel to the table. I'm still wondering where the rest of the £22 million SCC->Peel loan went when when you consider that the stadium construction tender was £15M and Peel got £4M from the NWDA for ground remediation. Are we saying that the bridge, access road and car park were £7M?
