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.

"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.

Just googled it and wood in large construction actually holds its strength better in a fire than steel   When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Have you ever been to FGR. The stadium is in totally the wrong place. At the top of a massive hill in a village with totally inadequate parking facilities. Each time I've been it's been a nightmare getting away after the game. It struggles to cope with any decent away sized following and if they are ambitious and looking to climb the leagues there's no way they'd cope with an away following from the likes of say Sunderland or Portsmouth.

The big bit is the development he wants to do around it, there's money in them there industrial units when built right on a junction.
