Certainly no ' ducks in a row ' !!!  

Fair point Mr Moosey

No ducks in a row

Just 'they will build it because they can ' (extreme)
And pointing at a plot of land around peaks parkway and saying 'I want it there ' are hardly the best presentation to potential investors are they .

The peakes parkway vanity project that cost ‘the club’ £2m but ‘the club’ never got anything from.

And no, am not saying that there was something amiss and brown envelopes were exchanged or Money was swapped under any table.

But, it would be interesting to know :
how much any redevelopment of the main stand/osmond would cost or:

IF any extension to any of the stands is allowed or is indeed viable.  

The timescale for any redevelopment.

Is a change to the blueprint (main/osmond) indeed allowed

So many questions that keep being Asked without an answer hi

Quoted from rancido

I think you will find that a precedent had been set as regards councillors voting on football ground expansion/developments. When it was proposed to develop Anfield in Liverpool, several councillors were excluded from voting for the proposals because they were ST holders and as such had a vested interest.

That's an interesting point. I wonder how many NELC councillors who shop in Freshney Place voted for the council to buy it! A similar principle surely.

To be fair to Fenty if he’s actually delivered on the stadium I couldn’t have begrudged him taking a profit from the housing or retail  development attached .
Whoever is going to fund a new ground isn’t going to do it out the goodness of their heart .
Unless it’s the council or some stupidly rich Grimsby town fan we’re going to have to deal with investors looking to make money

The council & politicians though won't want to be seen spending any grants, budgets, council tax etc on what they see as a private asset, that only 6k of the voters regularly attend, that's always been their viewpoint......until of course we reach the quarter finals and they suddenly see the worth of GTFC to the community then they can't do a photo op or ask a question in  parliament quick enough.
Instead they will happily blow the budget on buying a dilapidated outdated shopping centre.
