I can give you some good news, some really good news and some absolutely brilliant news.
1: We are against all the odds still in SL despite having been coached by a coach who didn't put the team together.
2: We actually over achieved, 8th spot and at least a bash at the play offs though winning it was never remotely likely to happen. Also a day out at a CCup semi final, it wasn't great game wise but as none of us ever expected to be there then that one has to be chalked down to experience.
3: Best for last, Jowitt, Johnstone, Crowther, Moules and Batchelor all played SL this season with Jowitt and Johnstone already regulars and the others not far behind. Mazive, Morriss and Senior also chipping away. When did we have that many youngsters coming through who have real potential and real chances? Of course a lot can go wrong but it's still good news.'"
There's absolutely no place for any kind of positivity such as that on this site, have you forgotten where you are,  |

The silence from them is deafening.
Recent perfoenmances wont help seasin ticket sales.
I spoke to someone prior to the Saints game and he said new signings were allready agreed for 2017 but they werent announcing any until they knew their fate in Super League.What do you mean know our fate? We've known that for weeks haven't we?
We have 1 confirmed and announced. A prop from the championship who has never played at this level. No odffence to Keegan but it is hardly inspiring is it?'" |

Thats exeactly my point charlie63.
The way he worded it was that they had already negotiated deals which were agreed, but nothing would be announced until we knew that we would definatlely be in the super 8's which we were, and once that was confirmed, we would start to make announcements.
Apart from Keegan Hirst, no others have been announced as yet

I'm guessing once season tickets go on sale signings will be drip fed to us in the hope they will stimulate sales.

The thing is our season maybe over but other teams still have important games so will not want to let us announce players signed from them yet |

Sounds like the people who have bought the site are keen for us to remain - and you can understand why; if they're plonking a convenience store and some fast food outlets on it, the regular influx of supporters will be a steady income for them. The players and staff alone would sustain a small Costa franchise, let alone speccies and passing trade.

Also without giving to much away the site has issues that mean it's hard to develop. Any development on the whole site (retail/commercial) probably wouldn't yield much more that the ground rent from us which would be achieved with no further investment from the developer.
Housing development is a possibility but would require a huge investment to make some of the land "safe" and in the area it's in would not earn the premiums to justify it IMHO.
A mix of retailed/commercial and a a sports facility for rent is probably a sound return for the buyer.
Lets hope so anyway. |

More confident now our short term future is secure at Belle Vue, I'd have happily followed us wherever but I understand others are far more sentimental than I. I'm sure MC will want the season tickets on sale before the Hull game next week so I'll just await an update.
Would think a small retail / fast food development on that site would have a significant footfall from the Donny Road traffic and yield a fairly good income for franchises plonked on it. Was at the club on Monday and was surprised by how much space the Super Bowl and Oasis buildings were uncovering.

Agree. The guy that owns 88m has made himself a very nice portfolio from the looks of things, with plans for hotels, Air Travel and other ventures in the future , so he's not daft by a long shot. Hopefully he can see a a good long term investment in us, to go with the other Properties he's purchased next door.. |

Just seen MC and CC in Costa with a potential new signing (and his Mrs?). Offered my credit hard to help seal the deal. Won't mention a name so not to steal any thunder.

Been away for a while and a little confused as to the ground situation. Are we staying at Belle Vue? I certainly haven't seen an announcement .

Great news that we are staying but let's not get ahead of ourselves because we have been led down the garden path too many times.

Good that we ate at Belle Vue another year and promising that it seems the new owner is a little more helpful than the old one but i'm preceding with caution with this. Sounds as though it still has to have some major involvement from Yorkcourt and the council and that bit i have a major lack of confidence in given their track record.

Sounded good until the bit about the cooperation of the parties involved in NM. Still it puts the move off for 1 year at least.

This could offer a way out for YCP and Box (spit) so maybe a bit of a compromise deal and some cooperation isn't that unlikely |
