It is also away from the city centre, which will alienate some fans. Bootham Crescent is worth far more as land for new houses than Blundell Park is.       Logged Offline 0 0 Reply: 1 - 3 mimma September 10, 2014, 11:20pm Fine Wine Drinker Posts: 1,440 Posts Per Day: 0.32 Reputation: 79.06% Rep Score: +11 / -3 Approval: +2,715 Interesting; The York plans include new leisure facilities as well. Grimsby council want to rebuild new leisure facilities to replace the outdated leisure centre. Maybe I'm thinking out aloud, but there's plenty of land around the leisure centre, could someone somewhere join up the dots. No probably not, it's Grimsby.
