Liverpool Home Ground?

[balmain boy]

None of this makes much sense and is highly unlikely to happen. Also shows further corruption by the NSW government. Gladys will be gone by the new year. And then whomever takes over will have new ideas.

When there's already 18-20k stadiums in places like Kogarah and Brookvale why do they need hundreds of millions of dollars invested in them? Absolutely no reason, no need and a massive waste of money. And when the stadiums are only forecast in liberal areas, or in marginal seats it's just politics, and not actually about serving communities.

My fear with Liverpool is that it becomes like BankWest in that it becomes more identified with the Bulldogs than with the Tigers. Maybe if Wests built another leagues club near the ground it could work

Why would it be more identified with the Bulldogs?

Look at SFS
ANZ

SFS is in the Eastern Suburbs
ANZ is the worse ground in the comp.

SFS is nice and close to Ashfield and Concord.

Parramatta is just as close, and quicker to get to? Not to mention closer to other areas in our catchment.

Liverpool being closer to Canterbury than Ashfield and the fact that the Bulldogs were going to build a stadium in Liverpool 10/15yrs ago if I remember correctly

Nope. 10K SFS vs 20k BankWest to Ashfield. Half the distance.

The logical choice is SFS has everything available !

Indeed it is and it’s 45K capacity to boot. Great for our blockbuster games.

We are an inner city club. The sooner people realise it the sooner we can progress.

 

[gallagher]

This is what our chairman had to say from that article:

WESTS TIGERS

Wests Tigers chairman Lee Hagipantelis wants a shift to Liverpool but won’t allow the club to ignore the club’s spiritual home grounds – Leichhardt Oval and Campbelltown Stadium.

“Those grounds would always remain part of our programming. They are spiritual homes of Wests Tigers,” he said. “There is always a certain sensitivity with our fans and members about where we play. We understand that.

“But moving forward, I could envisage a time when we find ourselves a home ground and then have opportunities to return to Leichhardt and Campbelltown as and when required through the course of a year.

“Wests Tigers would be very excited at the prospect of a stadium at Liverpool, which would well serve our geographic home. It would be the epicentre of our geographic footprint.

“It also seems to fit in with the favoured approach of our NRL chairman, Peter V’landys, who speaks very highly about tribalism in our game and the importance of suburban grounds and that is something I would support 100 per cent. It would be something Wests Tigers would look upon very favourably.

“I strongly favour a strong home presence with a ground where you form an attachment and I think there is much to be said about that being Liverpool but with the opportunities of honouring our spiritual homes.”

Well that looks a like the direction then.
