Surely planning would be Warwick District rather than Warwickshire County?
Strangely seem to remmber half of it was CCC for planning permission and half WCC, but the new terminal was in the WCC bit.
Shouldn't have been a problem anyway as WCC had granted outline permission for a terminal up to 5million people a year I think for years, but somebody on the airport legal side fucked up and allowed it to lapse, hence the locals able to get their objections in.
I don't usually get involved in all this hearsay.

Is it not about the same distance as ricoh?Why do i want to watch CCFC at Baginton Airport, if they want to get fans on there side move back nearer the city centre where we belong

Good look to Fisher and co if it is the airport site for our new ground. They couldn't get planning permission there for a poxy little terminal so how are they goig to get it for a football stadium and all that goes with it.
One difference between the terminal and a football ground was that the terminal would have been used all day, every day from 6am through to 11pm/12am. The NIMBYs were challenging the ever-present noise issue. Any ground Cov build would only be used once or twice a week for a shortened period of time and at more reasonable times. If it is at the airport, I foresee a lot less protesting from the locals.
Have you been at that location at 5 O'Clock pm ? and i include Saturdays. There is one road in or out at the moment, unless they let you drive through Baginton village and across the runway, could be a bit dodgy that though. No buses, no walk-up unless you like hitch hiking. No chance of it going there imo.One difference between the terminal and a football ground was that the terminal would have been used all day, every day from 6am through to 11pm/12am.

There is significant roadwork development around there which will mean traffic systems will be fine.
Buses go to and from there now every 15 minutes.
I think he means the single road to get to what will be the improved Tollbar Island not the island itself. He's right too it is a nightmare. The mini roundabout grid locks and the resulting traffic jam goes all the way past the airport and right back into the industrial estate.
I work on siskin drive and there will still be only one road in or out when the tollbar island improvements are finished.
Isn't that a bit dumb? Didn't they have the opportunity to sort this out, along with the rest of the roadworks?
All the storys about a site till now have been about Rugby or Nuneaton, so it was bound to be the Airport all along, because that is in Warwickshire isn't it?
Distraction tactics.
Really excited about the possible new stadium near Baginton Airport - this is Cov to me (although it might be under RBC's jurisdiction) - I think this would be awesome - and no need to worry about the traffic, the work they are doing on that area and kamikaze island is going to make the traffic flow so much better through that area.
Plus you get some cracking views of Cov from around there (from Baginton), especially of the three spires.
PUSB!

Does the distance from the ricoh to the city change based on where you live?Not if you live in Holbrooks

Bring it on. Then we'll never have walk into the Ricoh again. (unless you are one of the new Coventry Wasps fans who any real CCFC/CRC fan or true Coventrian would not piss on)
If there's actually anything in this Baginton Airport is not a problem for me. Would add that to Warwick Uni, Ansty Business Park and Broadstreet as potential sites whose location I would consider near enough in Coventry to make no difference.
Certainly a lot better option than ending up near the NEC or something like that.
Hoorah! We now have 'true Coventrians' as well as 'real supporters'.
