This sort of thinking is part of the problem Swin.

Look at the calls in Leeds or Liverpool docks. Previous excrement holes transformed by money and vision. Places evolve, some get worse and some get better. The money for Freemo and Grimsby has been secured and I’m confident massive improvements are coming.


Redeveloping disused docklands is a totally different proposition. We are not just talking Freemo here, it's the rabbit warren of terraced residential streets that will be on one side of the ground development and the residents thereof.

If they demolish the whole of East Marsh up to Park Street I might agree with you

Seriously even you don't really think it's going to be like the artist's impression do you? Surely not (for the first month or so maybe)

And it will remain a shithole even if the new ground is built.

Artists impressions are all very well, nice tree lined walks, benches with nice couples sharing a picnic lunch in the sunshine, flags proudly flying, wide clean pavements, hotels, restaurants etc etc

In reality it would soon be a shitty area with branches torn from the young trees before they even mature, the benches occupied by East Marsh dossers out of their heads on spice or some other such noxious substance, the walkways littered with KFC, kebab and or MacDonalds wrappers, burger vans on matchdays competing with the over priced outlets inside the ground and a no go zone after dark.

The perfect place most definitely with the iconic Dock Tower in the distance but sadly those fantastic images my well be just that, fantasy


With an attitude like that I’m glad you’ve fuked off. I guess you have been lucky enough to have a decent start in life.  The low life p1ss me off as much as anyone else. But at least now something is being done to try and sort it.  I personally doubt if the ground will be there unless we get a new owner. But I’ll try and be positive that things will eventually be ok. Both football and regeneration wise.  I could always fcuk off and snipe from afar. But that’s not my style thankfully 😅  


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'

You only need to look at Cardiff Bay/Harbour for inspiration..
Absolutely run down, had a problem with rough sleepers, drug users prostitution until ABP and the local council got together to form a plan to completely regenerate the area...some very close similarities between what happened there to what should happen here .


If Freeman Street comes anywhere near Cardiff Bay I'll be amazed

Believe me so would I, but, for what is the most deprived constituency in the country it does need raising the ground and what better idea to start the regeneration is a new, state of the art community stadium...alongside affordable housing, leisure facilities and open areas..
