WELL WHERE DO YOU THINK GTFC NEW GROUND SHOULD BE

Quoted from newfootballer

[/b]

Andrew De Freitas actually use to go and watch Town on a reguler basis, could never understand why he seemed to object to a new ground.
I have to say that I do not think it will ever happen in my life time. Sonic is quite correct sticking up for his brother, who I will once again say if he John Fenty was not on the board at this present time I dread to think where G.T.F.C would be

Isn't De Freitas a LibDem and therefore a member of a party who like to take the middle road and try not to upset anybody. As a consequence they usually upset everybody. I seem to recall a quote from a leading politician some years ago with reference to the Liberal Party( I can't recall who ) that went " when you stand in the middle of the road both sides run you over ".
It's not just De Freitas though , councillors from all parties over many decades have shown very little support for the needs of GTFC. They forget that as well as a sporting club GTFC are also employers and probably comparable to a small to medium business in industry either manufacturing or support based.

   JF is happy to develop anywhere but in his own back yard so instead of building the 400 proposed houses on the green belt in humberston he is so keen to protect, I propose the stadium gets built there instead.

    Alternatively, there are government grants available if areas of high deprivation at being developed so the macauley tip was always an option. It isn't being considered because it isn't what Fenty wants but it makes far more sense than building it on peakes parkway.


Quoted from sonic
That's your opinion. Not the right one in mine or John's if you ask him!

I don't think its Chris's opinion it may be more of a fact.
At the start of this fred I suggested the old 9 holes in Humberston.
Fenty is allied with a load of NIMBYS from Humberston so how can he have any kind of credibility in any planning application for a new stadium. People will just turn around and say Fenty didn't want 400 homes in his back yard so why the fook should we have a football ground in ours.

What a sad person you are, end of story.

I like the idea of the old airfield being used, it would support the already situated checkered flags and the driving range there

Quoted from EY Mariner

The best site for a new stadium is the one that was scuppered by misguided do-gooders in the allegedly peaceful village sited beautifully between a noisy dual carriageway and trans-Pennine railway line, garnished with plenty of nearby heavy industry. Probably only Brighton have been so badly let down by their political leaders as we have been.

WHS

There's plenty of land available around Euro Park. Surely they need it all for industrial units, it would take forever to fill it.

As the park is developed it will need some sort of retail facilities, cafes etc, & the local bussineses would use the confrence facilities of the stadium. All this could be included in the new stadium.

Let's stop flipping about peakes parkway is being looked at how much more time do we want to waste on this? its an ideal central location walking distance for many, get a Frank and Bennys and a toys r us lined up alongside, throw in a new ice ring or bowling alley and you've got a central hub of entertainment, lets get the idea of an out of town development out of our heads because lets be honest knowing what the people are like in this town once the novelty has worn off nobody's going to be arsed with the traveling, other out of town stadiums struggle with keeping the initial support but on the other hand rotherhams has a central location and their gates have shot up and been fairly consistent.

Exaclty, People will always have fears about new development but its never going to be as bad as they say, stop listening to them and just build you won't get anywhere otherwise. Imagine if they were like this in london, we'd be a third world country but at least it would be nice for nostalgic old people to visit

Tut tut David. I know you think the sun shines out of Fentys ring despite him overseeing Towns worst ever slump.

So are you saying that in any application for a new stadium any objectors are not going to mention that he was at the forefront of objecting to building 400 new homes in his back yard????????

Quoted from shotandcursed

Someone remind me why bp cant be redeveloped


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


So how come massive premiere clubs ( Mancs / Scousers / Geordies / Mackems etc) have huge grounds in areas of limited parking?
