I do not want to put a downer on the new stadium but I am not getting my hopes up till I see the frame work being started, I do hope it’s in the next few years as town have ambition of championship football in the next 5 years

Just a question for Rob.....over 600 posts now on this thread, is this anywhere near a record for The Fishy ?


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Think the operation promotion thread was at least twice as long, possibly more. Think there have been one or two others as well that are longer than this one.

With some hopefully positive news regarding a new stadium on the East Marsh I was wondering what will become of Blundell Park.
I presume the land will be sold for housing.
If so, with JF having his loans secured against BP, does that mean he gets the money the land makes and walks off into the sunset or will he take the money and stay on the board until he gets the rest he feels he is owed.

Quoted from mimma
The government money cannot be used to favour a particular business or company. It can only be used to help in regeneration of the area to make it more attractive to investors.

What I am trying to say is, this money cannot be used to fund the stadium but can be used to help with infrastructure, roads, streets and the like, to make it more accessible.


Which is what I was saying yesterday. They may however be able to build a stadium if they build it to own it as an infrastructure project if they can show that the investment in it will act as a catalyst to bringing other investment in together with new jobs etc. This is why for me there are lots of unanswered (not surprising given the newness of all this) questions about what GTFC can hope to get from it in terms of extra revenue.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Not even in the top ten! If you go to the forum homepage and scroll down and click on “view extensive statistics” you can see the top ten threads and posters. There is definitely a visible correlation between the two.

So have I missed something.

Does that now mean that the Conoco/Great Coates plan is now definitely not going ahead ?? !!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
