I thought it had been said that construction of the Stadium would be a little under a year. In any event construction should be underway when the next round of franchises re being considered which should assist us.

Seem to think a 48 week builds been mentioned, maybe wrong.

Couldn't make it today but very pleased with the result

It might have been mentioned but wondered if anyone who was there knows if the Section 106 (Contract to build stadium before any buildings are brought into use.) was agreed?
One of the best days for Wakey in recent memory!!!

Heard that mentioned, but can't confirm.

I think 46 weeks (from start) was quoted as the earliest completion for the stadium. But as you say it needs to be underway asap.

I was told yesterday that building is expected to start by end of Feb, it will not be finished in time for the next season and an alternative ground will be used for the first few fixtures of that season.

That'll do me, as long as they only need to finish bits off the RFL will not be able to overlook it.

If we have to go to Barnsley for a few games then so be it.

Can Live with that if we are in Super League and waiting to move into a shiney new Stadium.

Feel like a dog with two thingies at the moment.

From Diane today: The build will be between 46 and 52 weeks, the additional time due to possible weather delays to ground works starting in February. Expect to be ready to play on in June 2012. Down to RFL as to whether they'll allow us to play the first few games of 2012 at Belle Vue or insist on a temporary move.

Very big step forward today. Congratulations and thanks to all those who made this happen. Optimism returns to Trinity.
