They are building on it as I walk past there a lot, but it is a huge space ideal for a new stadium.Then again I live fairly local so as I walk to the Ricoh on matchdays I would say that !Old Courtaulds site, Old Church Road? I'm not sure if there's something on it now, but I think it's big enough.
I have serious doubts about the veracity of the idea though, as others have said, why would the FL need to get involved if it's within the city?

In a meeting a year or so back Maton stated the largest site available in Coventry was the Dunlop and Meggitt site (even with a large amount of it already put aside for housing). Fisher replied that the size of that plot was no where near the size required. There were also problems with access.

Wasn't that him just spinning though? He basically named a site, people went mental saying "SISU buy it etc etc" when it wasn't actually viable anyway.
Personally, I think the only way we'll move forward is for the respective parties to disregard what the others have said ref: plots of land available, and size of plots required.
Clean slate, identify space, work together to claim space and build place.
(well, as long as it's not anywhere near my garden, anyway)
How big is your garden?

On the note of the club talking to the council, it would be ideal if Lucas, Matton etc could be replaced so that Anderson and a new person at the council could talk afresh.
Wasps only paid 5.5m for the lot. Yet you think sisu were wrong not to pay 5.5m for half? Not forgetting it would be the club paying wouldn't it? Well that's what people like to say when talking of a new stadium. How sisu will lumber us with millions of debt. How it's all part of their get rich scheme. Yet people advocate us paying over the odds for something we were already paying over the odds for. It's unbelievable
Was it 1m? Thought it was about 2?
£2m was the offer for the whole lot.

Hearsall Common!
