You have miss-read it, even if we had a brilliant ground, if we cannot afford quality players we cannot compete, quality ground or not, !!! & I have none of the wishes you point at, it is merely an obsevationel set of circumstances of where super league may be heading !!

A revamped stadium done well opens up revenue opportunities that could help increase our spend on the team. Toronto will implode if they get their wish when Argyle gets bored, either that or they become too big for the ESL and set up a NA league of their own. We need to ensure we are on sound footing as we have no sugar daddy covering the bill. The ground will go a long way to providing that.

I expected work a month after season ending and still.nothing and no updates pretty poor. If it is council at fault we need to expose that cretin box yet again and there regime come.election time..
I won't stay away if it's raining but the old girl needs a revamp it's our home and it's a perfect location.
It won't attract much new custom the state it is in though.

On the basis that our CEC announced that good news within a month re ground redevelopment. He said this immediately after the last game of this season. We really do need an update going into the new season. We have a. first class playing squad and management team, lets get the ground sorted before it’s too late for me at my time of life.

Good news is one thing, planning permission for a community stadium to be constructed just off the M62 about 7 years ago is just one example. Actual works starting is another.

He said good news that’s a million miles away from building beginning. If he had told us in October that it was up and running you’re talking at least six month before it could start and that’s assuming there’s are no objections.

That’s how I see it.
