All of this is by the by. Great Coates was a terrible location for a new stadium and even all those years ago everyone was starting to move away from out-of-town developments.

Whatever Fenty`s other failings in his years of being Chief custodian the lack of progress on a new ground over a 20 year period is alarming. I think it typifies short cuts and doing things on the cheap I mean Extreme Leisure for example how on earth did he/board expect them to deliver a stadium?
The new board have stated a new ground isnt THE priority and clearly the focus should be getting back in the EFL but we cant just forget the need to relocate. The Freemo/Docks area needs pursuing and im sure these guys will get it right by having suitable people running the project from day one.

Hope so, far better than Freemo in my opinion and again build the tallest stand facing the river/estuary so I can still watch the ships if the game is cr@p  



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

After the way he walked away 40 minutes before the takeover was set to be concluded I doubt 1878 want him having anything to do with a new stadium.

You obviously have some good info knowing he walked away 40 mins before signing. Please tell us more, as to why, and what was said and by who?


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Was fairly well documented at the time, and was mentioned by Stockwood on one of the various podcasts or interviews they did around the time of the takeover.
