Alright so you don't think that an e-mail campaign would work. Anyone else got any suggestions. I really do feel that some pressure needs to be brought to bare on the club because they are treating the fans with contempt over this. They are promising the earth but never delivering and keeping us in the dark is just winding people up.

It is true what somebody said on here they don't reaise how much damage they are doing by p***ing everyone off.

well said - this whole episode is a farce and we are heading straight for the Co-op if we haven't delivered a stadium by 2011

It will never happen!!

I have never been convinced that this stadium will happen and nothing will change that its about time the club and peel holdings are told the truth about whats going on.

BELIEVE!!!!!!!!

build it and they will come.

What you need to ask is when the contracts to build the stadium are going out to tender.

Without contracts to build, then there will be no build.

At present all you have is pretty pictures.

Nothing to my knowledge has been done re getting companies to tender to build the new Salford stadium.

Saints for example have been splashed all over Construction News with details for firms to apply for tender to build the ground.

I will go im a resident!

I thought it had been out to tender? Perhaps someone could confirm that, but I was under the impression that Laing O'Rourke were appointed as Principal Contractor.

when are we going to see some progress on our projected new stadium ,i for one would be intrested ,or is it the case of the club leading us into the promised land and failing to deliver , they were quick enough to say how much they have offered to richie ,but do not seem as quick with news at the stadium ,lets hear some news and lets get this build under way ,and stop keeping us fans in the dark over when the work will begin , we are becoming a laughing stock to the rest of the rugby league world

Are we really going to get a brand new thread on the stadium every week until the thing gets built?

beat me to it GT.....fed up of discussing it now

Wouldnt it be great if the moderators could put a lock on any topic regarding the stadium and if it/wont it be built

Rather than lock it.... best to merge it.

It does highlight the closed nature of how Peel are dealing with it. No news = suspicious minds.

Peel holdings is a builder therefore it would be fair to assume since it's their project they would build it themselves. No need for any tender Mr Chair Maker!

As far as I know Peel are not a builder they own property and develop land but they don't build anything.

They own airports, The Trafford Centre, The Manchester Ship Canal and many other developments, look them up on line.

Totally correct.
Peel are a developer.
The development,including stadium, will need to be capable of supporting the finance before they have the constuction work start.
Salford's crowds will not be enough ,in themselves, to support it financially so I guess it waits until there are some takers for the revenue opportunities the venture throws up.
I really do hope I'm wrong but the situation is unlikely to change in the next month or two.
We have been badly affected by the recession but I don't think there are too many grounds for optimism.

Surley we are able to discuss this seen as the club said this stadium was happening all we here is set backs and no action the end of the day the clubs possition in the game depends on this and as loyal fans they have a right to ask questions and this fourm is the only place to tell the club and ask for information on the stadium. St helens fans get more information on there new stadium. personally i can not see ares happening i think this is why the club cant mention it as are franchise licence will be in jepoardy

well a while back at the end off last season i saw malcom alker at a pub and started chatting to him.i asked him about the staduim and he started laughing about it and wouldnt say anything.its annoying cos the fans want answers and we aint getting any at all.And to be honest all this about myler with all the money salford offerd him,we could rather spend it on the ground really.

~WARNING DOOM MONGER ALERT~

The money the club offer Myler will be a pittance compared to the money needed to fund a Stadium. After years of watching this saga draw on and on and on interminably - I have reluctantly accepted it won't happen. I would love to be wrong but won't hold my breath. Our likely loss of Myler and Turner adds to the situation. I find it unbelievable that the sharks circling our young players won't snap Luke Adamson up as well - FWIW I believe he is superior to both Richie and Jordan.....
I find it hard to be positive about the club I have loved for 40 years and think we are heading for the buffers.

Looking like Swinton could have a stadium before you lot, what a con to get in S.L. Salford and Wakey favourites for the drop 2011.R.F.L will get revenge for being hoodwinked

'IF' our new stadium over at Barton gets put on the back burner due to the recent climate I'm sure the Salford City Reds management will have already looked at the possiblity of playing Super League games at a nearby football stadium ie: The Reebok.

Here's hoping our new stadium over at Barton gets the green light soon, but in the meantime we must get things right on on the paddock from now until the end of this season, because next season is going to be massive.

We must do well because if we fail sadly we will be doomed and if they were to happen I for one could not see anyway back...

I know, almost as bad as getting halfway through building/redeveloping a ground and then "oh, f*ck, we can't afford to go any further, what the hell are we going to do now? Ah, let's just carry on using it, no one will notice..."

The Reebok? Wouldn't Old Trafford be a better option?
