RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Ciscokid - 07-03-2024
how about we buy the greyhound racing place and develop it. It's big, next to the river nearly and closer for me. they can move easily with a bit of Greek help.

4. between Glasshouse st and Huntingdon St. (oh mist rolling in from Viccy flats)
The thought of having to head out to M1 every game is depressing.
Eastcroft? That'd probably be big enough if they could flatten everyhting but there's a lot of businesses on there that'd need relocating, including the incinerator. Plus we'd be even closer to Meadow Lane.
The ideal spot was the Eastside development the other side of the train line, between the BBC building & Manvers St but that has now been sold off and building has started.
I don't think Holme Pierrpoint is suitable for a Stadium, however they did look at building a new training ground up that way.
Anything beyond Wilford on the A453 is too far out of town for me, so Ratcliffe would be a massive no. However it wouldn't surprise me if they looked that way for a new traning ground.

What about the land currently used by the rugby club on the other side of lady bay bridge?

Its all flood plain I believe.

The old soap factory site on Wilkinson Street (across the road from the tram depot) would be a good site but I think it's been allocated for housing by the council (it may actually have planning permission for housing, not sure). Trams are already there on the doorstep and a new railway platform could be built on the rail line that runs right past it. Be a bitch to park the car up around there though.

We would still have the river too.
Problem is it would be the river Lean.

Would there be enough space in the Lean if Yatesy scored?

Think all the shopping trolleys and car tires would have to be removed first Pap.

If we're going to stay in the city, its the kind of site we're going to be looking at. It's vacant and it's possibly been contaminated by it's previous industrial use so possibly uneconomical to develop for housing. These kind of large sites within the city simply don't exist. Eastcroft would be ideal but I'm not sure if the land which is owned by the council is large enough. And anyway the City council, in its current predicament, would need to obtain full market value for the land if they sold it to Marinakis anyway so I doubt he'd want to deal with them.
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - McDurban - 08-03-2024
Switch with the cricket ground, they only need to hold 20 000. I'm sure they could squeeze that into the land the City Ground in on.
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - nffc93 - 09-03-2024
So the council are offering us land in Toton. Is this there way of trying to double bluff us? Fair to say this option is a no no.
Absolute charlatans. Imagine having to deal with that shower of shite.
