Parking is the main issue, followed by traffic and train station.

We need conference falcilities and parking plus other ways of making money on a daily basis,

Why this can not be done at the park is a mystery to me, apart from the parking,

What about the land the other side of the railway line. ?

Waltham residents and local villages will love that. I am sure Peaks Parkway residents would still moan with the traffic.

Laceby way on could be ok as routes to the A46 and A180 are accessible too


There actually isn't too much in the way of housing at the airfield site vicinity - think you will find that it mainly looks out on fields, the nearest houses would probably be at  the end of cheapside, but that would be a decent distance away, particularly if the ground was situated in the centre of that very large area.
However i agree that no matter where you build the ground, someone will whinge.

I think it should be at the side of the A180 as you come into Town. There's a big field owned by the Council I think. Well, it says 'Development Opportunities' then gives the Council's main switchboard number. It's been up for grabs for years from what I can see.

But if not, I say Peaks Parkway.

Can anybody tell me is there a petition at Blundell Park if not i think it would be a great idea to put a petition in each stand which should be very clear upon entry we would get loads that way signing up I would imagine even away fans could sign it I'm sure they would like us to have a new ground.

The petition should state name, age, location / address and club

We seem to have had a succession of backward thinking councils for as long as I can remember. It doesn't seem to matter what political persuasion they are they all seem to morph into the same backward thinking monster. As JF said , a docks site is out of the question because of the exhorbitant cost of filling in the Fish Dock. Freeman street would be a nightmare because the land is owned by various individual entities. Anywhere north of the A180 , on the Humber Bank strip , would be a non-starter because that land is reserved for industrial use only. The Parkway seems a good option but who knows what will happen after the viability study is completed. Wherever it is ,the plans should be cast in stone so that if we have a change of council the long term plan remains the same. If the council are so hell bent on flattening Scartho Baths then why not that site ?
