I wonder who owns all the land that hugs the new Eastern relief road, plenty of room round there, good access from the motorway, room for car parks, and not too many residents for opposition.

Rumour is that the council have bought quite a bit of it on the cheap!  |

Perfect they could give us the land we need as blood money.

One thing that could be in it for him indirectly could be networking which in business could be a big thing.
MC says the only thing that is holding the club back is the stadium and that on the playing front things are moving in the right direction
As a club becomes more successful the profile of the club and directors increase.
As he has no other sporting ventures he will be mixing with businessmen that he may not have done previously. This could then go beyond rugby league to other sports.
New sports stadia and improvements are being made all the time, and if a BV development was a success some club could come looking for the services of a respected developer.
He is also associated with Hotels. How many stadiums are also now looking at building hotels close by to their facilities?

Plenty of residents on the way in the next 20 years around the Eastern relief road, i am sure i read the plans are for around 2000 houses ,a school, health premises, shops etc.to be built over 20 years ,some new houses have already been built at the start of the Relief Road at Bar Lane / Aberford Road junction. |

Who owns the land directly opposite the new fire station on Silkwood.
A big flat site that could easily accommodate stadium and parking. It is non residential and of course excellent links to the RL heartland.
Have always thought it strange that this area was never really muted.
Oh, and it's in Wakefield.

I'd be interested to know what Wigan or Saints or Hull pay for their tenancy (and please fans of those clubs don't say you don't). Then compare with what we pay now. If the sums match up and the money a new stadium at BV generates covers the difference then I suppose it could be a goer.
I've got a feeling we pay roughly 200k ish for the dump now, I'm assuming double that for a modest refit say 400k a year. However if that extra 200k is matched by a 200k+ in revenue then yeah. My figure by the way are nowhere near scientific ![]()
I don't know if things have changed but 4 years ago they were paying £15,000 per home game.

You're right there is, I live on the main road right next to it, it's 2500 houses that are getting built, the majority on the old strawberry Fields area, plus like you say a new school etc. and a couple of show homes have already gone up. |

There is land at two locations: Newmarket and Belle Vue. The lack of willingness to put a new ground on either is the problem, it seems. |

Or are we looking for other partners/backers or avenues to get a stadium?
