Flatten the area, put in a set of 6 temporary stands (only 16 feet deep) (other variations are available), = 900 seats down the side of the ground. https://grandstandhire.co.uk/ I don't know the costs obviously, but that sorts out the away stand, whilst the rest of the ground is upgraded permanently. I know...wishful thinking...not gonna happen.

I would suggest the reason Fev have made more progress on their facilities than Wakey (or Cas for that matter) is that Asa Amone knocked on all those years ago at McAlpine. Since then we've spent a fortune hanging on to Super League status whilst they have been happy to plod along in the 2nd tier.
I think I'm still happy we won that game though.

Try asking Mark Campbell if he's been "happy to plod along in the 2nd tier"!

I seem to remember it being a fans led change.
So the answer to the opening post is........because Feb have some fans who got off their are and did something about their ground.
Considering how hard it has been for us, they deserve enormous credit for getting the ground they have. Hard work and dedication to the cause got them that.

Leading on from some comments about Fev fans helping out, I can imagine it'll be a little more difficult than just turn up but wouldn't Belle Vue be a little bit more respected if a handful of fans gave some time to the club and helped out around the ground?

On match days I see so many things that are broken, cracks in the pavement, uneven surfaces etc etc... how hard would this be to sort out if the right amount of people got together?

Tell this to Manni- he owns the ground not Trinity

I still say that had Fev won the game, and taken that place in Super League, things would be a lot different due to the required financial input maintaining a Super League team on a shoestring.

It's easy to see why you endear yourself to some of the fans on here

I think you'll find some dedicated fans have already done that.

Some worrying replies there, I've popped Chissitt on ignore as I'm just sick of getting stick regardless of what I put and it's always off topic when he replies...

I don't know anyone had volunteered to do so - excellent effort! Can anyone tell me when this was and how many turned out to help?

As far as im aware there are a bunch of volounteers who work at the ground on a regular basis. Also when the ground failed its safety check a few years ago i believe volounteers played a great part in putting right what the safety officer said was wrong. There have been voulounteer groups for years. I remember going down to the ground on a tuesday night to clean the ground, wash seats etc over 20 years ago
