I am not a fan of Fenty. He should have resigned after we got back into the league in 2016. There had to be something rotten at the club for Amond to leave us for flipping Hartlepool.

I searched the net for "dock infill cost" and found this article that suggests £18m for a similar scheme at Tyne Dock:

https://www.constructionenquir.....8m-tyne-dock-infill/

Maybe Shutes thinks he can get that sort of money from a Government grant.

Has the ownership of the Freemo flats site been established? Some people here heard rumours of the council using the community stadium office space. Is that still the case?


That article was written 6 years ago

Quite possibly adding things like inflation, material and labour costs etc, I would ‘guess’ you can probably add £10m on top

White Shorts - are you one of the Freemen by any chance? What do you stand to gain from having the development at Freeman Street?

BillO investigated this possibility around 1998. I think the outcome was that the tides would undermine something as big as a football stadium. Nick Osborne went onto the North wall to have a look I recall. In any event, it was dismissed for construction reasons, not the money.

I don’t recall any mention by Shuteses of filling in the dock. The plan showed the stadium built by the dock not in it.


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.

Not great resolution but you can make out where they are planning for the ground to be in this picture:

Looking at that some of the dock would require infilling?..still think Freemo will win in the end, although personally I'd love it to be on the Dock..

I'm not sure Northbank.  I don't know the docks area well enough myself but hopefully that pic will give someone on here an idea. I'd love the idea of the stadium being on the docks too.
