Not much greenery left in that area now is there? When I wer a lad it wer all fields. The little field in the middle was where the pit ponies from Roundwood Pit used to be released into for their holidays.

I'd love to see a plush green field about 140m by 80m

Hope you guys get it all sorted and aren't subject to the phantom announcements we seem to get!

plenty of room in town centre lots of steel for framework going cheap all offers considerd council skint

Very soon I believe!

I just hope it's not another false dawn.

We all sincerely hope that is true - and that is why we have the people we have working the hours they have to do everything they can to make this happen.

If this fails, it will not be for the want of trying - by us at least!

Where is the false dawn exactly?

I realise the Thornes failure was a blow but you need to look at the bigger picture.

In 2004 the need for a new stadium for Trinity wasn't on any Councillors agenda, we simply didn't exist as an issue. Now it simply won't go away.

Even if it fails in the end the club will have gone down fighting and the Council will have a failure on it's hands that will not easily be forgotten. I believe as political animals they won't want this so something will happen. What I don't know.

Fingers crossed.

look at p65 of express at planning notices demolition of bv

If you take the current site that Belle Vue occupies and drop it into that picture it takes up about half of the field on the left (the one between the motorway and where the rest of the development work has already been done).

This would mean that there is potentially more than enough space for a bigger ground with parking. The downside as far as I can see would be access. Although it is close to the motorway for travelling fans I think it might actually be too close and that you could get horrendous traffic queues coming off the M1.

not really its not like most clubs bring thousands of away fans, it'll be fine for wakey people they can park down alverthorpe, ossett, go on the m1 drive through wakefield. easy!!!!!!!!! put it this way son its better than bellevue's acces

Cala management are a big housbuilding company.

All the right noises and indications are being made, fingers crossed.
