Quote KR RRTR KR="KR RRTR KR"Hope above hope that this idea never comes off..... As a resident of the area that you mention in this idea... you have no chance..
1...no land big enough to accommodate a stadium
2... Parking and travel to and from the stadium in the area would be impossible... this area is already bad enough for congestion and does not need more..
3... i doubt it would get past the public consultation as too many would object.....
In all honesty i would build a stadium in the St Andrews quay area and would make a far more viable location, plenty of land for stadium and parking, 2 mins from hessle road for the pubs etc... and would prob help to generate more custom to the area...'"
Where on St Andrew's Quay? And if it was there, it would stop a lot of walk up crowd as there aren't many houses in the area (it's an industrial area). Plus it's be as windy as hell!
Like I say, Headingley seems to cope with the traffic on match days and they get even bigger crowds. The traffic isn't bad at night in the Prinny Ave/Newland Ave area so should be fine for night games.
