Wasn't the stadium proposal just before the announcement that the Phoenix  wouldn't get a new license? That might be why WelNix didn't push it as they had other things on their plate and it's hard to make a commitment to invest millions in a stadium without a long term license.

The idea was floated 18 months before the licence stuff became more of an issue. Your theory seems a bit weird to me since if that was why the Nix didn't end up pushing it harder, why would they bother proposing it in the first place?
