Castlefords new scaled down stadia plans look quite impressive 13K, they even have a floor plan layout on their website so they know whats going to be where, they even have a Tigers supporters bar in one stand...has anyone mananged to see an interior layout plan of our stands yet?

If you can find the planning application on the Salford council website the detailed plans of every level are on there - they take some finding though as there are a lot of pdfs attached to the application.

Looking good. Have you gne for the 15000 option?

What is the capacity of each stand? Which do you think will be the new shed and which will be the away end/side?

Can't wait for our first meeting there. Almost a home match for east-side warringtonians.

Can't help but feel they should have gone for the 15,000 option first time. That would mean possible semi-finals at the venue, internationals, maybe championship final. At 12k it has nothing over LSV for those events. A little more put in would have meant a lot more out of it..

Location? I reckon it may well benifit come semi finals from being a halfway house between the W.Yorks teams and Saints/Wigan/Wire.

Passed the new stadium site on Tuesday and the entrance from the A57 is in the process of being widened, plus the whole of the original lay-by appears to have been dug up and new pipes etc being laid looking from the Makro end coming into Peel Green.

Fair point, but it would have been guaranteed big games had it been 15k.

Any chance of getting another team to use the stadium? FC United or Man United reserves would be daft to turn it down surely?
