Maybe that could be the stadium name then, the So Many Previous Disappointments Stadium. The stadium of shite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebristolred Posted April 9, 2023 Report Share Posted April 9, 2023 Surely if they are relying on the developer (who will want as large a margin as possible) to build a ground for them in exchange for land, they will be looking at a full on barebones stadium in the guise of the Kassam or New Meadow rather than anything better? Possibly something like Rotherham's at an absolute push? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hilarious. People saying the stadium isn't on a good location because there aren't many busses. I wonder - before it was built - how many busses went to The Mall at Cribbs. Well, given it didn't exist, you would have to say the answer is none. Some of them are thick as mince, they really are. The fact a new service could be introduced is just beyond the tiny minds of a few. At least they have the odd sensible voice over there, but no doubt they'll probably get told to 'Get back to Trashton' by the end of the day, such are their insecurities. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's standard to be fair, SL is looking for additional investors for the Sporting Quarter, it's just a way of spreading the liabilities.

I'm guessing connections, but I wonder would they be willing to do that for free ? What would investors get out of it ? They would want to make money so Wael would be in the same position he was in with the UWE site. Not completely owned and having to pay rent or interest, the big difference being the build would be massively more expensive now. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Open End Numb Legs Posted April 9, 2023 Report Share Posted April 9, 2023 My honest view is their plan would have a much better chance of working before COVID and before Putin's ego went nuts. The money will decide it, not the football sentiment. How many football clubs make profits to be shared out to investors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to that particular poster, she has mentioned previously that the investor who was approached is known by a family member and, in fact, declined as he did not consider any possible investment to be of interest to him. Nothing more or less to be read in to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted April 9, 2023 Report Share Posted April 9, 2023 Well the bit about Conygar buying the land is an out and out lie, based on reports in all other outlets. He says he told them there would be a stadium at the Fruit Market, but skirts over the original timeframe and then goes on to talk about building at their current stadium. That last bit should give the Gasheads concern because either the timeframe is such that developing the Men makes commercial sense, or they are nowhere near as certain the stadium will be built as they suggesting. It's all Emperor's New clothes, and he will keep stringing them on as long as they let him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
