I'm no expert but I would have thought a stadium built mainly out of wood wouldn't be allowed anyway.

I’m not surprised. I never thought it was sustainable from an environmental point of view sticking a stadium miles from population centres and public transport. I think it’s hypocritical even. DV then uses the excuse that the extractive industries say ‘I’m only trying to create jobs’.

If he is that bothered about creating jobs where they are needed and building a stadium in a sustainable location he should buy Fenty out  build us the Freemo-Eco Stadium. Win-win-win. As long as he doesn’t mess with our black and white stripes like he did with FGR’s. 😀


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Parish council objecting when planners had recommended....shoe in for winning at appeal if you ask me.  Mind you the fact he has included charging £7 for parking there i hope he loses the appeal...chucks his teddy out the pram and walks away.

Who would ever have wooden stands at a football  ground?

I am green with envy that they have submitted plans for a new ground.

DV is an arrogant tw*t. "If I do appeal, it will be an independent and far more professional decision, and I see little chance of losing."



Why did he not make sure the new stadium was in the local area plan?

Timber in construction nowadays is clad in fire-rated sheetrock and/or coated in fire proof paint, which essentially means it's the same as steel in terms of being fireproof. Loads of buildings are made from wood nowadays. The new Japanese Olympic stadium in Tokyo is made from wood.

I'm not going to try and count them, but there seem to be far more than 5,000 seats in that stadium

Yeah......fair enough.

Just googled it and wood in large construction actually holds its strength better in a fire than steel
