leylandsroad Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 why not wait until they've laid a single brick yet, with this credit crunch I'd be suprised to see it go ahead for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke to one of the blokes at the presentation, and he said now is the ideal time to build it , as all the contractors will be falling over themselves to get the job, Timeline is roughly; planning application, early this year, if succesful, contractors move onto site later this year, 2 years to build, 6 months to landscape and lay pitch, ready for start of 2012-2013 season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leylandsroad Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Yes but in two or three years time will 20,000 or more people be able to pay this sort of money to watch football? It's very bad times ahead. Look at Middlesboro or Southampton for example I'd rather see a full Ashton Gate than a half empty or less 35,000 seater stadium , we will not sell out this sort of stadium unles we are facing Liverpool or Man U. We have not had a single sell out this sason despite 14000 or more ST holders. Sounds like a wonderful idea but look at Darlington ? I just hope Mr Lansdown is very rich to bail it out if it goes tits up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or gamble the whole existance of the club, burden it with huge debts and risk bankruptcy. We do NOT need a 40,000 seater stadium. It's all about opinion but I for one am genuinly worried with this plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
