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.

You need the players lounge the correct size - I believe York do not have that at the soccer stadium

Can this really happen ? If so let's get ball rolling !

It's just an idea - I have no idea tbh but if there was the will then yes.

It is certainly an easy option that would very much get the council off the hook - assuming they think they are on a hook.

Lets see what happens but it won't be decided by me or you sadly.

I forgot to mention that there are numerous stadiums around the UK operating this model to various degrees though I know of none that are 100% modular.

The one closest to us in scale is Bath RUFC (Recreation Ground) who's stadia is very temporary in nature though I think recently some more permanent stricture have been added.

Also I need to add that although it's a cheaper option that doesn't mean it should be done on the cheap. We are not talking a load of old portacabins we are talking bespoke on the major items.

You can justify £25 to sit in a modular stand but you can't justify £25 in this day an age for an obstructed view so any roofs must be the more expensive cantilever option - it's that kind of thing that would be the difference between a dump fit for stock car racing and a facility fit for a major sport in the 21st century.

You've excelled yourself on this one Vasty. Great idea!!
Could our friends TRB and Sandal Cat progress this idea officially?

Do pop venues have temporary seating ie Sheffield areana,leeds fda? Tbf if it's what I'm thinking off they top quality stands/ stadium

That surprised me that Bath have so much uncovered.

But the difference with their option is like you said, they have permanent parts. This for me shows why doing this at Belle Vue is the preferred option.
Needs to be a recognised Base.

Fair point pop tart but the rent is a big issue unless there is an agreement with landlord
