After reading lots of threads about rebuilding, income generating, what others have done, etc, etc, etc, then spending a few hours most nights just letting my brain cell wander where it wants I've come up with what I think will happen in the future, I'm not saying I like what I envisage - actually I dislike it immensely - but I can see many reasons for it happening with very few against, so here I go . . .
We will build a new stadium near i54 but to the North of the motorway.
Against - traditional fans, like me, will hate the idea. Businesses in the City Centre will hate it. Wolverhampton Council will hate it.
For - New stadium just like Man City, Arsenal, etc.
No food or drink outlets locally so a new fan village with income going to the club.
Parking in the club's car parks on site with income going to the club.
Site is in South Staffs so Wolverhampton Council could not object to our leaving Molineux.
South Staffs would welcome us with open arms (& possibly grants, etc) due to the huge income it would provide them.
Fans would get there earlier, spending money directly with the Wolves at their bars, food outlets, maybe pre/post match payed for as well as free entertainment i.e. former players talks at a tenner a head plus drinks food, pre match concert, etc.
Easier played for naming rights so it wouldn't have to be the "Thomas Cook Molineux Stadium" it would miss the M word out.
So what do you think, can anyone see any more "for" or "against" thought, not so much from the fans points of view but from a club owners point of view
