Quoted from dapperz fun pub


With a little bit more demolition it will be big enough , it’s the ideal site imo it could possibly rejuvenate the east marsh beyond belief


First time I've seen an acceptance that there is the need for further demolition. I've walked that area and it is criss-crossed with rows of town houses/maisonettes. I've never heard anyone talk about that as a consequence. Without that level of demolition the proposed site is not a regular shape.


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

If it becomes a community stadium owned by the council, apart from match day revenue where does the club get the additional revenue Mr Fenty says we need to progress.

Only if the 'little bit more demolition' covers the entire East Marsh area, now that would be a real boost for the town after all who in their right mind is going to want to park a car anywhere near there while they're at the match

Plenty of folk park around there...have done for years...and again, sort of proves the point about lack of vision or forethought.

People should be encouraged to use public transport etc.

Heard the same about a run down pub in the area that the brewery/owner are demanding nowhere near its actual worth

Exactly remember this would be an infrastructure project as well so I'd expect to see some form of bus terminus around there somewhere. Lets hope we can land it, I grew up around there and when I go back for games and to visit relatives every 2nd weekend it's certainly evident something.needs to happen.

Quoted from gtfcmd
don't shoot me down I want to move grounds as much as everybody else but I still think freeman street not the best idea for a stadium, doesn't look big enough for a start and with all the football traffic its going to be a nightmare around there, yes you got parking for fans down the side streets, would be nice to move to new stadium after all the years of going on and on about it


Ffs where ever the ground goes the traffic will be a nightmare for 30 minutes after a match

If folk get their knickers in a twist over traffic then we may as well just give up and not redevelop anything.

Out of town stadiums are dead. They don’t work and promoting public transport and more sustainable and environmental ways to arrive at the stadium should be encouraged.

It's to be hoped that having someone of Ian Holloway's character as an investor might make others think the same too. Regardless of what political persuasion anybody is, the only way it will work is with full political co-operation. Let's hope that grandstanding and willy waving don't stand in the way of progress.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.
