If we are going to fit the crowds in for European football, we are going to need a bigger Atyeo. "I love this plan". tfj Yep, the countdown clock to the Europa League is ticking!

What would any employee of the club say about what is likely to be a confidential matter? If it was true, I'd imagine @Mkelly would have remained silent or gave a politician style answer (ie skirt around the answer). The fact he used the word 'false' indicates it ain't happening.

Unless we've bought the houses and intend on demolishing them. The original Atyeo was meant to be larger, but due to the laws it is at it's maximum height for as long as those houses exist.

A mate of mine said SL has bought all put two of the houses behind the Atyeo. Not sure if this is true? If it is you'd be wanting top dollar to sell. What is the market value of those houses nowadays? Quite a bit I would imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 **** me Robbored. Why have you done this? People were just thinking about letting you back into the bosom of the forum, and you start a thread like this. Why?? FFS, why? We have a lovely stadium now at AG, thanks to Steve, but most observers now look at the Atyeo end, and it does, relatively, now let the ground down. If we could redevelop it, it would truly make AG a Premiership stadium ............ But the houses behind ****ing block it. There would be no point in doing anything at that end without flattening that row of houses - which are peoples homes. Unless you know the club owns these houses - all of them - then you are a cruel, teasing ****ard. Tell us this is not the case, I beseech thee. tfj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realise I'd been evicted from the "bosom" of the forum........who are these "people" anyway? if you read through this thread you'll have seen that the source of this info reckoned that there is enough space between the Atyeo and the wall of the car park to expand outwards but more importantly upwards.

I'm sure there was a house on Ashton Rd that was recently sold and then put back onto the market later (possibly after being tarted up). Can't remember where I heard this from but it would be an indication that the club aren't making serious efforts to purchase every house in that row directly behind the stand. As far as a redeveloped Atyeo the same height as the Dolman....absolutely no chance whilst those houses are there. It would be amazing, however I'd also like to see the Atyeo in its current form joined to the Dolman if at all possible. It would give the stadium a more enclosed feel.
