Can I just clarify that the issue of moving out of WHL is not directly linked to the issue of the completion date for NWHL? I see a lot of posts trying to interpret the progress on site and draw conclusions about our intentions for next season. That logic doesn't hang together.
Let's assume that the build is running late (debatable). We still ought to be moving out now, because not doing so will, of itself, add a year to the completion programme. They cannot even start building the southern part of the new stadium until the old stadium has been demolished. So they have to get the old stadium down, so they can keep building the new stadium.
If there is a decision to be made about whether to move out now, it is not about progress with the build. It's about financing.
That makes sense. So if we didn't move out this summer, it would still be 2 years.
