| Another area close to the town centre which I'd have thought would be possible is Silcoates School. They have loads of land which is already used for sports (around 10 full size rugby pitches) and access is quite good. I'd hazard a guess that for the right price and useage deal they'd entertain the idea of having a 10k stadium in their grounds (think of the bragging rights!)

I can't see that tbh. I think the best option would be a council owned piece of land for various reasons, not least they owe it us. This way they can lease us some land at a cheap rate without having to invest in it or sell and thus circumvent any opposition. Technically the land will remain council owned, untouched and available.

Yes even the fencing can be temporary!
As it is at concerts etc though clearly permanent would be better in certain areas.

Sorry mate, they have 4 rugby pitches, 2 of which are full size plus, an all weather surface but, I dont think you have a cat in hell chance of anything there, unless the school was to shut down.
Trinity certainly had a good relationship with the school though and used to train there sometimes, I dont know if that is still the case.
Going back to available land, surely Newmarket has a spot of land available, there was a time when there was going to be a community stadium and other facilities built there
Even a cash strapped council and developer couldn't wriggle out of the piece of land ?

Indeed, my apologies, they do only have 4 (+ some other fields and the all-weather hockey pitch), but they wouldn't be losing any sports pitches by putting this on, they would gain a stadium around one of their pitches which they could use for their own events throughout the year. The school also isn't averse to selling off land to gain sporting facilities. I'm not saying it's ideal, but it'd certainly be an avenue worth exploring with either of the private schools in the city. It's mutually beneficial for the club and school so funding it may be easier

Sorry but he can and he will. The stadium land at Newmarket is not owned and never has been owned by the developer, it belongs to a local farmer. As far as we know the developer has an option on it but no one is party to the details. However both will want far more than we can afford.
For Vastys plan to happen we need cheap land and the only way I can see to get that is for the council to let us have use of a couple of sports fields somewhere.
Just as an aside ,anyone know about the playing field just off Horbury Road,Lupst, that would be ideal

| Just as a further thought on this but looking at the wider RL picture than just ourselves.
If this idea is viable, could this be a way forward for other clubs that have recently had ground issues, such as Sheffield and York.

Quite so, it's a full stadium at around 1/4 the cost of a conventional construction. They do still cost something though and it would rely on the goodwill of the council to gift some land (or lease it for peanuts)

Is that getting houses put on it? I know somewhere around there is. That would be a great spot though as it's next to (and near other) council run sports facilities.

They only sold land to extend what they had in front of the school in the late 80's. They sold 2 rugby fields and an athletics track where Silcoates drive and Silcoates Avenue is and around the same time they sold the land they had behind Toll Bar Lane , which is now called the Mount. There's absolutely no chance though Silcoates would have a Wakefield Trinity Stadum on their Land, wouldn't get past the Board of Governors.
Anyway interesting read Vasty , some good ideas in there.
