Went to have a look round the Hepworth Centre once. The visitors were outnumbered by the staff 4 to 1

Quote: JINJER "Absolutely NE, the Wakefield publics apathy is on a shocking level, historically in my rugby lifetime we've never pulled the crowds, a new stadium would be wonderful, I'd be more than happy with a revamped BV, but unfortunately these are exceptional times, the NHS on it's backside is a prime example, as councils are needing to cut costs for health care you can't imagine them ploughing money into a stadium used 12 times a year by 4,000 speccis. We Trinity fans are in the minority, work it out.'"

I generally agree with your previous post about the City having a bad wrap for no reasons at times. Yes Kirkgate's gone well down hill but that's about it.
We've gone from literally decades of having nothing built in Wakefield apart from the Ridings, to now having new Train stations, Bus station, Trinity Walk, Ings Road. Hepworth Museum, the development on the old Milk Plant behind the Theater, plus even all the development that's happened down Denby Dale Road. So much more's been invested in the City the past 15 years or so than the previous 40.

Saying that, I don't think there's many that think the Council should build us a stadium, just push and get behind the development they rubber stamped & the SoS and not act lack it's nothing to do with them. Especially as it would bring the terrible sporting facilities of the City up to par and not cost them a penny.

Well said

That's the thing that gets me Shifty Cat the council would not have to contribute money wise yet they are not interested in the least shame on them for not helping things along.

I do wish we didn't engage in this type of either/or buffoonery; the investment in arts and culture in the City has put us on the map for many reasons, and brought in a huge amount of income - long may it continue.

It bears absolutely no relation to the Stadium though - which they aren't and never were expected to fund; but as SC has said - they bloody well should have worked with us, rather than colluding with YCP to work against us.

I'm in total agreement with WMDC's investment in the cultural side of things The sculpture park,and Hepworth Gallery concept are jewels in our crown. Pity they couldn't have saved the millions invested in the monstrous Hepworth building though and refurbished the stately old crown court building on Wood Street or Wood Street police station for considerably less cost. We might have been able to provide a community stadium with what was saved.
