| Quote ="The Clan"Thats good asvice as I know very well what the situation is at Leigh!
At some point the jobsworths that are running the LSV will realise that their shiny new stadium is all very nice but they NEED someone to play in it.
Alienating the Centurions and Genesis for that matter is counter productive in the end. They need to understand the requirements of a professional club and make some of the facilities available to them instead of booking it out to all and sundry just to make a an extra few quid.
I know that a lot of the Leigh staff are very bitter about the way they have been treated and in many ways they wish they had stayed at Hilton Park.
I don't think Trinity will be making that mistake with this new stadium.'"
Just simple things like a weights room that you can use for Free , If Leigh want to train on any part of the LSV including the stadium pitch they have to pay for it , in fact they are not allowed to train on it at all
Our home form so far this year has been about as good as our display at belle vue the other week |

Sir Rodney has stated that this (the stadium) is the first part of a massive development, I wonder what else is in the pipeline?

That was what we said  , the club is now worse off than it was at Hilton Park in many aspects of sport and business

| Quote ="Starbug"Not wanting to look through the whole thread but is this stadium to be a council owned and run facility ?
If it is be very careful
You could find yourself out of pocket compared to Belle Vue
The whole ' ethos ' of new stadia is that they work for you 7 days a week generating money , which is fine if they are generating money for your club but if they have to generate money to pay overpaid , unneccessay council staff to run them , then things dont work out quite the same
You must make sure that you are the ones running it , yes you might have to have a couple of council controlled ' watchers ' in the management but if it ends up as council run it will be of no financial benifit
Hope it works out for you , also make sure there is at least a full side standing'"
I get your point, but there is no way we can be worse off. With it we get a franchise and without it we don't and that is 1.5 million a year. We simply can't afford not to have it, even if pound for pound it isn't as useable as BV. |

Your input is appreciated.
The stadium will be controlled by the Community Trust. Yes it includes councillors, but they are only part of the trust. A sub-committee (Sir Rodney & Co) are tasked with delivering and then operating the stadium, with the intention being that it is a stadium for us all, with Trinity the anchor tennants.
The rental costs etc have already been considered, having already been looked at previously as well when discussing Thornes.
All sorted! |

| It's just the news we've been waiting for, ticks all the boxes as far as most Wakefield fans's expectations are concerned, I imagine, especially the fact that it's still within the boundaries of what we all consider to be Wakey.
What makes me wonder is the statements made by the developers and Sir Rodderz on the part of the Community Trust. How big is the district/community the stadium intends to serve? Does it extend eastwards as well?  |

We all understand that post mate we really do.
1 No backbone Box and the gang, lets take a walk in the park 
2 Sir Rodney and the gang, who i don't know to have a beer with but i gather he won't start something he can't finish and IMO thats why this as been ongoing behind the scenes for so long. I doubt he'll have left anything to chance and Planing permission will be nailed on.
I will be relieved to see the ground up and running and we've had false dawns before BUT this is deal or no deal |

There are going to be a lot of empty seats in your 12,000 stadium (from when I have visited).
Also, from the Sky Sports article, i didn't realise Wakefild had a university

Beleive me I Know how bad it is at the moment but some of the stiff collared SMC appointees will have to see sense eventualy.
Leigh were told that the gym at the Hilton Park ground would be available to them for some considerable time. Unfortunately when they tried to use it someone had demolished it. That left the club with nowhere to train unless they pay to use what is essentialy their own stadium. |
