RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Salvatore Matrecano - 18-12-2024
Interesting stuff!
Hope we can buy those last 2 houses on Colwick road then!
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 13-01-2025
You just beat me to it. This is the text without having to click on the link - it's from Daniel Taylor's article in The Athletic today:
"As for the long-awaited development of the City Ground, that is another vision for the future. And newsflash: Benoy, the architectural firm run by former Forest chairman Tom Cartledge, is no longer driving the project (Cartledge left his role at Forest in October and was removed as a club director the following month).
Talks are understood to have been held with Foster and Partners, the architectural firm that helped to design the new Wembley and has also consulted with Manchester United about Old Trafford. New ideas have been shared. Marinakis wants the new-look City Ground to take an upwardly mobile club to another level. And, though the redevelopment saga has been dragging on since 2019, maybe it will be worth the delay."
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - nffc93 - 13-01-2025
Bloody hope so. It's dragged on enough.
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 13-01-2025
I just hope that means we don't have to request new planning permission if the new architects' plans are vastly different.
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Salvatore Matrecano - 13-01-2025
Bloody hell, chairman Tom really burned his bridges didn’t he?

I don't think he was ambitious enough for EM.

I guess our recent successes probably amplifies that too.
Need 50k if we're going to be a regular Champions League team right?!

I remember that discussion Wassy.
It was more of a conversation about us not being able to compete if we didn't have a new stadium.
We can now put that bollocks to bed.

It was in jest but obviously our recent successes do mean there is more scope to be more ambitious.
Certainly, you'd hope this season has cemented our place in the league for the forseeable so we can build with a bit more confidence now.
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 13-01-2025
Next season will be the first time we've had four consecutive top-flight seasons in the Premier League era.
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Fumanchew - 29-01-2025
With the announcement of the government backed regeneration of the old Trafford area, do you reckon something like that was what cartledge would have been angling for if the tories had stayed in power with the new ground at the centre?
RE: The Infrastructure Projects - ozzyten10 - 29-01-2025
My guess is that cartledge was chummy with the tories - our new director is a labour man! Coincidence?
