Barrs Court Red Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Plan B has been engaged...watch this space (probably for a couple of months yet, mind ) It's what they should of done in the first place, but Nick Higgs couldn't resist a willy waving competition against a billionaire.

Bristol Rob Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Plan B has been engaged...watch this space (probably for a couple of months yet, mind ) I thought Plan B was move to Bath after Severnside went tits up, redevelopment of the Mem and playing in Cheltenham was Plan C, new stadium was Plan D. A few more plans and they'll be able to spell DISASTER. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 But if they do that they might be in for a battle with the nimbys because losing the car parking would mean supporters parking around the streets on match days, and wouldn't the houses also generate extra traffic? I'm sure they would, but imo (no planning experience) I doubt their opposition would be enough to stop an urban development for housing.

I use the term stadium loosely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the term stadium loosely. If it did then Rovers would hurriedly put out an appeal on the social media for someone with an appropriate license to help out on a casual basis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 The possibility of building flats on the existing car park to fund redevelopment would cause a two fold problem. It's usual practice to build flats with one parking space per flat, so space would be needed for the flats and their parking. This, combined with a bigger stand would reduce parking for football to almost zero. I believe Rovers previous plans for redeveloping the ground included building flats for students, without parking. This would reduce the problem, but is there much of a need for more student accommodation at Horfield? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Are they sponsored by a little village but have misspelt it? Pensford? I don't like our new away kit but **** me this is hideous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRFTG Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Are they sponsored by a little village but have misspelt it? Pensford? Could be cynical and suggest The Gas' dyslexic marketing manager saw a proof of the shirt with a generic 'sponsored' banner. In reality I reckon if you check who prints their posters / programmes this year it'll be a backdoor deal with the print costs subsidised by the value of the sponsorship (i.e. not much.)
