we don't know what will happen if we write on the GET site but we do know what will happen if we don't; it will just look like we don't care and that has to influence people, surely? Keep working at it John, Beijing is behind you.

For me the only viable option is to get our backsides down to the townhall with a mass demonstration for as long as it takes. Lets make our voices heard and make these councillors known what we want and to put further pressure on them.

What really annoys me is that the local media/ general public always seem to find a reason why we shouldn't do something in this town rather than focusing on why we should make something happen.
I think BigChris summed it up perfectly when he said Grimsby is the town that wanted nothing, asked for nothing, so got nothing.
Instead of letting the rest of the country mock us as a "deadend" and a "shithole" why don't the people of Grimsby actually make these positive projects happen for once? Look at what Rotherham's new stadium has done for the place.
The mindset of many Grimbarians is so frustrating.

Absolutely spot on gtfc98 and what BigChris said. As an example why has there been nothing done about the land when the findus building was demolished as its sitting making the area look like a sh*thole. My dad agrees with BigChris, the whole town needs updating.

The problem goes as far back as when butlins first came knocking on our door and the folk of clee soon told him where to go. they thought it would take from their businesses and didn't use their brains to see the bigger picture. This is sadly is happening again with the new [/b]commumity[b] stadium

Couldn't agree more with these sentiments What happened to areas that could've been used ? The old kp crisps plant, the stones brewery, Hereford school, great coates, Waltham aerodrome......the area has countless possibilities. The area has numerous redevelopment opportunities. Does this not tell the people that object against things nothing!! People will always complain as they have nothing else to do. It's time that people thought objectively about what a new ground could bring. We have the chance to put a pulse back in the town and allow it to thrive.

Quite agree Woz that there are ample possibilities as a site for a new stadium, the question arises that why does JF completely rule them out? I know what i think, but better not say it on here for obvious reasons.

What happened to Hereford School, I used to go there but haven't been down that way for a long while.
