Done.

And it's nice to see one of these that appears to have real substance.

Good luck


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Done. Hopefully you can come back once you've earned your masters and sort out NEL's roads after the team of what appears to be trained chimps have finished ruining it. Five ways roundabout - all exits immediately followed by a zebra crossing therefore slowing traffic down after a measure to keep it moving. Got a junction that nobody has ever had a problem getting out of up to 30 seconds after arriving at it? Let's just put some traffic lights on it anyway.

I digress - hopefully PP happens because I'll be able to walk or cycle there (infrastructure dependent).

Done.  Agree with LH about walking and cycling.  Safe, segregated bike lanes will enable loads of people to bike to the ground since about 80% of North East Lincs' population lives within 3 miles of the ground.  Even if just a few hundred choose that instead of the car, it will have a big impact.

Completed thanks.  I do not fancy walking or getting the bus from York to matches.

Excellent point and PP is a wide enough road to permit this. Maybe a nice smooth surface could be laid from Humberston Road through Weelsby Woods and the other way from Scaffa.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Thank you everybody who has completed the survey so far. I do worry that transport potentially be a stumbling block for the new ground. Looking at comments on facebook, GET etc. most of them are complaining about potential traffic. That's why I decided to do this as a dissertation topic because clubs are increasingly needing to relocate and if they are to be successful we really need to be able to look at how people travel so we can give hard figures to the people against the ground.

Yeah I think there is definitely a number of things the club could look at. A paved route alongside Peaks Parkway would be great and I think it's something the club is looking at. It would mean that people don't have to walk through residential areas to reach the ground from the town centre and it could be used as cycle path during the week for people from New Waltham / Humberston etc. to the town centre.
