That will go down like a lead balloon with the Old Clee preservationists!

That stadium is a tiny site. Yes you might just squeeze something the size of Glanford Park on there but possibility for expansion in the future? No. I can't see where the car parks, park 'n ride are going to go either unless the neighbouring green land would also come with it. None starter I'm afraid. It's like the Tioxide one recently. Politicians just suggesting sites without putting any real thought into it

Possibly the worst location in the town for transport links as well?

Doesn't bode well for Peaks parkway when the leader of the council is talking about other sites.

What a complete non-starter that is. Can't have done himself any favours with that suggestion.

Totally agree!  It would be chaos on match days, the Town would be gridlocked.

Perhaps there's a ground share option there.

It would be just possible to squeeze in a new ground based on King George's but the traffic problems rule it out straightaway. At one time there was a plan to build Humberston Road right through to Love Lane Corner and I think that would have to be resurrected but it still wouldn't solve the problems. Dead duck.

The only other way would be a mini-railway. Now, I wonder who might have one of those ...............?

It can not go there,

If it is still there,

I am going back 60 years where I spent a many an hour with my fishing net and jam jar.

Wouldn't take much notice of Shaw he will soon be history not really done much of any use to the town. He probably has a few enemies around there and it's his parting shot at pissing them off. Like Austin Mitchell he comes out with utter excrement every time he opens his mouth.

What a perfect site - I did suggest this in the survey.
More importantly it solves the problems of the old Bird Eye site which is an eyesore and a perfect location for affordable housing. It would regenerate an area that is really in need of it.
As for the arguments about transport links, it is only just over half a mile from BP so existing infrastructure would work perfectly

If memory serves i think KG V Stadium was a consideration when the council sponsored survey in the 80/90's eventually identified Great Coates as the site of choice the council would support, KG V being ruled out as unsuitable.

You couldn't make it up. Wait hang on a minute our council leader just did. Just need to decide which bits would be covered in black and white blocks, would fit in nicely. What nonsense.

Yet another site suggested by the council. This is the same council who suggested Great Coates, then listened to a dozen NIMBYS and dragged it out long enough for it to fail. Then they suggested Peakes Parkway, where they will no doubt listened to a few more NIMBYS and drag it out to the point of extinction. And now we have this, a site that is surrounded by even more housing than any of the others, and will no doubt have even more people complaining.

The problem is, no matter where a new stadium is built it will have people living nearby that won't want it.

It just shows the tactics of the local council towards the Mariners stadium project.
This has been going on for 20 years but then again like Austin Mitchell said .....

Taking the lead of Dubai, I suggest we build a new ground on an artificial "Fenty Island" created just off the North Wall. Look, it works:

If we don't have the space for a new ground available in the town, let's build it!
