Barrs Court Red Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 This is interesting as I have read several posts from Mr Dunford on the Gaslist suggesting that supporters challenge the council regarding them selling parcels of land to enable the City stadium to be built.

Gazred Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 No suprises there then, jealousy, envy? Either way they are just cutting there noses off to spite there faces. I can honestly say if it meant the actual football World Cup coming to Bristol on the strength of them having a new stadium built, just as a fan of football i would be right behind it, even more so as a Bristolian.

Barrs Court Red Posted October 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 The Football club and Town of Swindle have embraced the bid, meanwhile the bitter blue few will do anything to wreck the bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinapig Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Is the support of the local milkman strictly necessary to the bid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 If the gas had backed the bid then they'd have probably got a new training ground out of it. Nevermind eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbcfc Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Is the support of the local milkman strictly necessary to the bid? It'll be a chance to use up all those milk crates and finally build their new ground. But I think the Rover's dont seem to realise what a chance they have to show off their new stadium because teams require training facilities and with Swindon jumping on board (they are using it as a platform to redevolp the county ground) even if you only get the chance to see Brazil, Italy or Argentina train on your pitch it's great for the City, and the west country on the whole. And we may finally get an arena out of this too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Other Rovers Forum (needs login) Can you tell me what was said and if it really is Dunford. I really don't want to join their forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Rovers are irrelevant to both Ashton Vale and the world cup bid. Dunceford being his usual unprofessional and clueless self would not be a surprise at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

numbeast Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I expect dear Mr Dunsford is a little unhappy with Bristol City Council at the moment. His Friends at South Glos's Filton College wanted plannig permission for a "Regional Construction College" to be built on land belonging to "The Beeches" in Broomhill but despite the planning officer recommending the applications approval the plannig committee refused it. Of course this upset dear GD because he was going to lease the college the land and make a fine profit on it. So it's a case of "If I can't use green belt land then no one can" Geoff Dunford and the blue few need to remember it's about the bigger picture for Bristol and the income it will generate not just in that summer but for a good while after the World Cup has finished.
