Wow didn't expect this and with the funding sources available. This has to be the most positive off-field news in a generation. I wonder what they have in store for the North Stand.

They said the plans were scaled back so assume this may mean the exec boxes were not included in the stand. Possible there is scope to install these later at the rear of the stand.

The 4G pitch I believe Carter mentioned going in the car park area.

Quote Fishermanscap="Fishermanscap"I think from previous statements they mean one of those part grass part synthetic pitches rather than all plastic, I may be wrong but I'm sure that was what was stated. The technology has come a long way in recent years. Think these ones are good for all year round use, ie football in winter. MIGHT BE WRONG OF COURSE. https://eandt.theiet.org/content/articl ... s-greener/'" my only concerns is the bounce of the ball and footing for the players when playing but if they can replicate it then I suppose its a no brainer pleased for the club they deeserve it

Can still cater for corporates without boxes nowadays ie use of conference facilities and corporate seats which happens a lot at football. Sounds like we are leaving south and west in this phase so who knows.
This is the most important development for the club in years, brilliant news.

Up the Trin

Looks like they will carry on using the flats, there not that bad inside and with a lick of paint will look fine. I recon they have a few years left in them, let's hope so.

Not sure that's can happen, I would assume that with an enlarged stand planning would demand more not less parking?

Sure it will all become clearer.

where's the skteches from?

On the official site snowie.

From Wakefield Trin site..

"Most importantly however, this phase of our redevelopment plans will provide multi-functional community facilities including conferencing and banqueting space and a café. The 4G pitch will also be available for community use as well as providing an all year-round venue for our first and youth teams.”

got I went straight to the trinity tv to watch the video

I was told categorically by experts on here that ‘oh no the North stand has to come down, blah blah’.

Real experts told me it could be sorted reasonably easily. 1 - 0 to the real experts.

Just be re-profiled and levelled out and firmed up a bit - it was always that straight forward. Basically you’ll be able to get about without tripping up.

Not quite that simple but you get the idea.

Hope they put the hallowed turf up for sale. Would love about 20m2 in my back garden. Could provide a bit of pocket money for the club. What is the going rate for turf About £5 per m2??? thats 100 x 50 x5 = £25k!

If not I will be turning up at the final game with a Pizza Cutter and trowel.
