It’s desperate stuff from the raggies fanfaring they might be going to a 100k capacity stadium, Radcliffe knows it wires straight into their insecure obsession with them being the biggest and bestest in the world. Who’s going to pay for all this though? A club that is binning off its staff and is over a billion in debt and is giving contract extensions to Johnny Evans, the maths don’t stack up. A project this size will probably end up costing over half or two thirds of the clubs value.

And if they did build a 100k seater stadium, won’t it look a bit odd on Thursday nights with vast parts of it not open as the bestest fans in the world didn’t fancy turning up?

With the state of the country’s finances being outlined that there’s a £20 billion black hole that’s been hidden by the outgoing Conservative government and many major infrastructure projects being binned off. I don’t see how the public purse can pay for it, the Labour government paying for the rags stadium would be an even bigger own goal than the Conservatives scrapping HS2 and only running it to Birmingham.

Absolutely, the national uproar if it happened would be huge
 
It's all typical smoke and mirrors from them...again. Tell the tabloids that they are planning a new stadium, then sit back and watch the media take over. Tell the media that Bellingham signing is imminent and he's just having a medical, and watch the resulting wankfest from Slimey Stone and the others.
Once the new season starts we'll hear no more about it. The educationally-challenged plastics all over the world -mostly Asia- will be loving it, saving up for their SkySports membership renewal even as we speak.

It's a rag-ritual as old as time itself, promise the world but deliver nothing.
