Here we go again.
Edgley Park is not hemmed in by houses, and has the land around it to build on. Blundell Park does not. They also seem to have access to money that we don't have. Appart from these small issues, then why can't we follow likewise.

It might be hemmed in but there are 4 corners and 3 stands that don't even run the full length of the pitch with bogs ,roofs and other items not fit for purpose . They have access to a multi millionaire who's a fan , we have millionaire owners who are fans ,who by their own admission have spent their careers raising capital for projects & businesses . Yes football is a different entity to anything else but I hope they have a major overhaul in mind after the training ground is completed.

Just to digress - the last time I went to Edgley Park I recall a guy threw his crutches down in front of Laurie Mac.& we won thanks to a couple of goals from Mat Tees.

There isn't a law against replying to threads that are more than a week old. Why would I bump a discussion about Stockport's ground? Good for them. 18k would not be an embarrassment in the Championship. I'm waiting for news about dock redevelopment planning applications that were supposed to have been submitted last month. Is Shutes still interested in a stadium, or has he given up on that?

I’d like to think that it could be something to help the town and n.e lincs as an area. I’ve mentioned my thoughts on it before but the council/s that have been in place seem to consider the club a burden on the area. Yet, done correctly, it could create an upturn in the area from training apprenticeships, and jobs while building takes place through to full time jobs/careers once a stadium is actually built. But, while all I hear about is doom and gloom about the councils, it’s not got any chance of any local authority help.

Plenty of room within the existing footprint of BP for stand extensions/ rebuilds or simply filling in the corners. Always easy to say it can’t be done.

It 100% can be done . It's not even the capacity for me that's the major issue or priority it's more the facility aspect -some of the disabled supporters are still getting sodden wet through if it rains and I just don't think that's acceptable really - a lot of the gripes are things that anywhere else people would go potty about but because we are stuck ,fans just seem to accept it the way it is . It could be a really great stadium in my mind with a mixture of old and new which would be a novelty for many .

That was my mate Tommy, who had been injured playing football. On seeing Lawrie Mac, he threw down his crutches and said, I can now walk.
A true story.
