  1. what do you think they've been doing and spenting millions on twiddling their thumbs?

    If we've settle for the revamp it means there is no legal way we can win Ashton Vale, if the club want a new ground with Ashton Vale off the table then they have to move out of the city to severn side or portishead or something like that which isn't going to happen,

    27k isn't the maximum we can have, its whats being banded around with 3 stands being devloped,

    The club have silently been buying the houses and areas around the ground for years, if we started using the 27k max then they atyeo would be redevloped (if planning permission were to be agreed) filling in the corners and slightly highering the stand which would make it a capacity of problliy 30 - 32k which is the absolute max we could get on the current land we own,

    Yes Ashton gate is the second option but it isn't a poor second option, the main revenue we are missing out on in footballing terms is conferencing and boxes something thats been incorprated into the re-design, thats the main reason we were never on a level playing field in terms of cash in the championship and thats the main reason we want a new/redevloped ground not some fancy hotel or nice housing estate but some boxes we can sell and make additional money on match days for both the rugby and the football club

    Do we know the club have been buying up houses or just hearsay? Atyeo can't be increased in height as like the dolman of light problems for the residents.

    Don't think we could fill in the corners for would mean the pitch wouldn't get enough light on it and as of next season with it being used double the amount needs lot of work on it even when it's moved.

    We also need av for the hotel retail development there which makes extra money. Parking at ag is bad enough already, would the council let us build boxes conference facilities without looking into traffic management in the area.

    Amount of money we would get from a few boxes is nothing compared to av, and with ffp next season in the championship as well we need as much revenue as possible to compete.

  2. Signed it, don't think what has happened is fair, but rules are rules and if you aonly fine clubs for braeking rules going into admin etc. where is the deterrant for it to happen again. Leeds got punished as have rotherham, bournemouth etc over the years. Not fair but where do you draw the line?
