The £2 a week puts u in a draw for £500 a week rolling over up to a max of £3000. All money raised goes in to signing developing and retaining youth. The future of our club. We have been in talks since march re buying the ground back and this is still ongoing, we are buying it back from BOI. New terracing and stands will be erected along with new hospitality facilities and refreshment areas. A refreshment outlet will never be more than 50yards away. Each stand will have it's own facilities. Planning permission is not needed for any of the works as the ground has had the stands in place previously. Capacity increased to 12k and the ground will be super league compliant. The burning issue is yes you've guessed it the membership scheme. Get signed up sign up family and friends. Why do you think Hudds did their £50 season ticket? Why did Bradford do their pledge scheme? They were low on members.'"
Agree 100%, although I may be being a bit naiive here in believing that our financial input isn't what is important, it is all about reaching the 5,000 members, so if it's not too stupid a question, why does the club need our money ??? |

"Castleford's biggest home crowd of the 1991-1992 season wasn't quite 12,000 while on average they'd sit around 6000 but the noise, the chanting and the singing just blows you away" - Tawera Nikau "Standing Tall"
"I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg |

| Quote: Slugger McBatt "Overall, what has been announced tonight is good news for the club, and if it makes the difference between getting a franchise and not getting one, it is arguably one of the most important meetings in the clubs history. By the time the next round of franchises come around, we should be in Newmarket and as safe as all the other sacred cows.
So oversold? Probably, but only because we overhyped it in our heads. Hoodwinked? Not when viewed in the context of where it might take us, if it gets us the franchise.
They need to send the builders in now though.'"
Agree and that seems to be part of the problem, some people had created all kinds of scenarios in their head. In reality it was only ever going to be investment or stadium/redevelopment issues and that's what it turned out to be. The best thing the club can do now is looking pro active on the redevelopment front. |
