They should have got a commitment for a 10k rectangular stadium the second the Nix got launched.
Waitangi park is a non starter and I’m quite sure isn’t wide enough for a stadium anyway. We really need another one next to the main one or where bluebridge is. Neither are going to happen as it requires significant private funding.
