He seem confident. They want to see returns. Sooner rather than later.

Given they have loaned cash to Lateral, it doesn’t surprise me that GMI want to see it built :)

Wakey will get their ground done before we get ours built - Wakefield council will see to that.

I dont think because x amount of money as already being spent means it will be built , surely there will come a point when loses will be cut to save from losing a lot more money

The road junction works well be in the millions bracket. If the coal is extracted and the road done, the rest is relatively cheap as they'll own the land.

With the sounds of it, if they are completed I would expect a build in late 2018 or early 2019. The ordering of the steels for the job will give us a better idea.

Having now got on to the planning portal again, I can confirm that the coal extraction is only a small portion of the site and not interfering with the stadium site at all.

The document can be viewed here: http://cominoweb.wakefield.gov.uk/Plann ... nt=obj.pdf

On the timeframes, which have slipped since the original application, however, just to give you all an indication of what's expected

Phases 1 and 2a - 61 weeks from start date. This is all the site preparatory works.
Phase 2b was to be started and planted in November 2018 but given the above delays, this may be delayed.

The club have since said they anticipate 2020 but obviously this is still on a best case scenario and could be at any point during 2020 (though I admit, the original statement read as start of 2020).

RE: The roadworks, I wouldn't believe anything in relation to them. They keep changing. Were May, then April, then October, then June, now December.

Thanks for the update Hudds. I will say it again - we don't need to rush the process like Wakey to get this done. We don't want a bodge job. If it takes 3 years - great but if we have to have another 5 years at Wheldon Road then so be it. We need to get it right the first time - look at Salford who rushed the opening of their new stadium and it still resembles a building site.
