Don't think so - think they own some the other side of the Parkway.
Yes, but it said the building land for houses didn't have to be on the site adjacent to the stadium

The idea is that if you regenerate the area, people will want to come to it.
It will take a bit more than a football stadium!

Appoint an MD who is not part of his inner cabal and has experience in "the football business" give this person full control of the month by month stuff and drift into the background and become a "foreign owner" type person who just concentrates on getting external investment and even a new ground.

My thoughts might not be the same as the boards, unless you hear different.
You working on a takeover one the quiet Pete? So that explains why Fenty blocked you

I certainly heard that the PP side of the equation is looking dead in the water as there is something like a £15m shortfall.
Maybe the council will partner the club in building a new ground on the East Marsh but it is not going to be alongside an enabling development
It wouldn't surprise me. I've been saying for years where is the money for a £20-odd million stadium coming from and have never been convinced by claims that a share of the profit on a thousand houses was going to pay for it. Not in GY anyway.

As a big thank you to the fans for sticking with the club under Slade's poor management , For the next home game against Exeter the following prices will be, 1, £10 ADULT ADMISSION 2. £5 OAP 3. £1 KIDS 4. One free drink to all fans. 5. Voucher for £5 to be spent in club shop. That's the least you deserve for having to watch such crap this season. My thoughts might not be the same as the boards, unless you hear different.
Well the club have been listening not as much as above, BUT A very good deal for everybody , well done I hope we have a 5,000+ crowd + 120 away

Haven't been able to get online since Saturday so haven't had chance to look through 100s of threads.. But for me, Fenty has to go for what he thinks is the BEST person for the job suitable, not best value. Let's not go cheapest

The whole point is to encourage extra non-matchday revenue - who's going to want to hold their wedding reception in the East Marsh? Itll still be a ball ache to get to and everyone will park in the streets around the ground just like they do at the moment. Im a bit doubtful about better public tranpsort - I suspect the club would have to pay a packet to upgrade the Docks station.[/quote]
I keep seeing the position of Docks Station as being one of the advantages of having the new ground in the Freeman Street Docks area. This is a complete fallacy as the only train that stops there is the Barton Train. As far as I know Docks Station is not a stop for either the Lincoln or Manchester trains. If this station was to be accommodated in these services then the whole timing schedule would have to be altered for these trains and that is something the rail service providers would not do.
