Judging by your Licence jibes you must be very nervous, particularly as I didn't even bring the subject up! By the way in answering a pathetic 'regional' comment I should point out that Widnes is not in Merseyside as one of you seem to be suggesting with your 'work' comment, and that I have worked all of my life and live in Manchester anyway.

The information I posted was purely that - information - based on facts which are at odds with what is being said by the council and the club, and not a childish attempt at point-scoring. What would be the point, it is neither you nor I that will determine the outcome of the next Licence applications. But you can ask questions of your elected representatives.

As I said before the truth is in the public domain. Just check planning reference 58253 or speak to the relevant Case Officer as I have done. Then you will discover whose research is "all wrong" and who is dealing in fiction.

I am sure it will be a fine stadium when it is built, but I mistakenly thought that you would collectively like to know that the progress and timescales are not what is being said publicly. But, hey, if (some of) you would rather deal in sniping the world is your oyster.

Not worried simply bored by people like you.

The RFL will decide and regardless of our fate most of us won't spend the next 3 years moaning about being screwed etc.

Ave It - take it easy - nothing is certain in life except death and taxes - no point worrying. The stadium will get built, the RFL will make a decision - end of story

Well maybe not, but if 'fan-power' counts for anything...

To be fair building the thing will be the greatest achievement when you go though all the stuff that has gone wrong with it from day one.

Id be surprised if they chucked us out, they saved us once and we have brought to the table what we promised us in a new stadium / new stadium physically there being built, with a sound business plan, no crazy spending, no massive debts and development in our off field areas and a team full of promising english players, we've kept the RFL and superleague informed at every step of the way we have done all we can to play fair and open with everyone who needs to know in the deciton making process.

If Superleague / RFL want to pull the rug from under our feet and change the rules then there is nothing we can do about it

Wakey and Cas shud be looking over their shoulders more than us imo, both need a new stadium, both i dont think are anywhere near where we are (might be wrong?) Both "live" within spitting distance of each other.

Both are miles better than us on the pitch. Both have bigger crowds. Sadly it is not all down to just getting a new stadium.
