Other clubs managed it in different financial times.
We can't currently afford a new ground. Building costs have shot up and anchor tenants have faded away.
Not much point speculating on what we need/want, when it isn't going to happen for the foreseeable.
I'm with you on this one. We have debated it on here many times, in the past, and when JS & AP say it's not going to happen then any further discussion is pointless.

Yorks is a full leisure complex isn't it as well?
That is true, but isn't that the way clubs are having to go in the future?

Most of the aforementioned clubs managed it by the owners being smart…….
It’s a a good point - we’d need £40m-plus, no doubt, but others have managed.
Blundell Park isn’t good enough now, and it’s only gonna get worse. I suspect it will be the one issue that encourages JS and AP to get the hell out of dodge at some point, and that’s not a criticism of them, it’s just gonna be tough getting the funding.
Blundell Park should have been demolished in the 20th century, and we’re already 23 years into the next one now!
For what it’s worth, and I admit it, I have zero clue what the solution is.
Somebody needed to say it, well done sir. To replace the Main & Osmond Stands won’t come cheap, if The Imps renovation of the Stacey West is anything to go by. It’s interesting reading this thread with all the prophets of doom speculating on our impending demise. It’s 40 (FORTY) years since Town matched attendances at old Sinny Bank. 9th in League 1 is realistically the best we can hope for in terms of club size compared to our rivals but aspirations are higher. This has been achieved without our 1st choice strikeforce (Walker, House, Hackett) and best defender (Montsma) …. imagine where we might be if they’d been fit? Despite personally wanting the Cowley’s back and the feel good factor they exude within the City, I trust Mr Nates/Jibaras have chosen wisely in Michael Skubala and will back him in the forthcoming windows. 25k at Pride Park with all away tickets sold on the Thursday night before Christmas is far more preferable place compared to a trip to Rodney Parade, don’t you think?

Quoted from 123614

When I say a full leisure complex, I mean they have a cinema and all sorts involved within it.

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

Come back when you've beat them 1-3 in the Championship at Pride Park. SB like BP has one good stand .After that you have one mediocre and two abysma stands so you have plenty to do still

Your own ridiculous forum shows 'distain' towards anyone who doesn't toe the line, a reminder that your attitude and language as a guest here on the Fishy would have you banned by the cry baby admins on there, as has alway been the case, but some general footy talk is a little too much to ask for from post-Cowley glory seekers and wavering Citeh fans it would seem.
