If it is the case I hope the machines have floats and not tracks. Edited February 5, 2014 by A ORLOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belle Vue haven't even applied for planning permission yet, unless someone can say otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandorum Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Sky reported a year ago that BV would be riding in a new stadium next (this) year. But of course they won't be unless the builders work weekends and have a time machine. Still can buys bricks and pavers though. Been going on so long now it's chances are pretty slim. I have seen dozens of projects like this come across my desk and then quietly dissapear. Hope it happens of course but it looks less likely as every year has gone past.

BWitcher Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Just to add Martin, I would like nothing more than to see Cradley back racing Wolves in the top flight, ideally on their own track.. but even at Monmore it would work if the will was there. It was something that should have been done back in 1996. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin_t Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 I don't mind them racing at Monmore tbh,only 10 minutes away from me.But a place of our own would be nice....providing it was only 10 minute away :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillipsr Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Neither will be built. Have to question the point of building a 6000 seater stadium when it will have two men and a dog in it on all but two weeks of the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
