Council making excuses again hahahaha
They won't stop till they finish us for good, it's like they don't want a new stadium as it would fuck up the wasps project
Did he say that or are you clutching at straws?Wow you actually believe there's gunna be a new stadium. There isn't. Sisu are bluffing.
Has planning permission actually been submitted? Any of the correct procedure been followed?

I know we like to think that the Council have it in for us and granted some of the politicians have done some questionable things. But the planning department is operated by genuinely decent people and I just cannot accept that there is a case of things being made intentionally difficult for SISU. I do believe what Duggins said in that any planning application will be considered as fairly as any other application which falls into their in-tray.
tbf, all he said was 'hahahaha' so he wasn't giving much to go on in pulling up the level of debate!Did he say that or are you clutching at straws?
They're not problems with this site though, they're "problems" that will need sorting anywhere.
And as it stands unfortunately it is a matter of build a new ground or stop playing football, unless the wasps have a change of heart, or sisu drop legals...

How can they back something that doesn't exist? Two sides of A4. Really? How Mickey mouse is that?Isn’t it SISU’s part in dropping the legals ? The council need to back it. Legals will be dropped and a rent agreement can be struck at the Ricoh.
I would expect there to be some kind of binding legal agreement to prevent a bluff on the build.

Isn't that 4 sides then?!How can they back something that doesn't exist? Two sides of A4. Really? How Mickey mouse is that?
Unfortunately, getting a Supermarket to buy into the project will be difficult as the Grocery/Retail sector isn't in the same place as it was when the Ricoh project started.I mean re: funding, is there land to build a retail site and a training ground with a stadium? Could It be like the Ricoh and selling of a chunk of land to Tesco? They paid 60 million, that would fund a stadium surely?
SISU said they have been in touch re. site/s, and had no reply from the council didnt they ? the council replied by saying "SISU have been talking about developing a new stadium for almost six years now but we have seen no evidence of any real progress or intent' ... thats now changed to 'oh, well they submitted a two page document re. a site'
so the goalposts are already moving id suggest. Or at least things. are becoming a little more transparent. If they did indeed respond to that enquiry from SISU then lets hear about that reply, or see their response. If they didnt reply then basically what SISU said is correct .... isnt it ?
I think the 2 page document shows Sisu have no intention of building a ground which we all knew already to be fair.I think Sisu are hoping wasps give in for us fans maybe or a groundshare till wasps collapse.
Size isn't everything, depends what the two pages say...I think the 2 page document shows Sisu have no intention of building a ground which we all knew already to be fair.I think Sisu are hoping wasps give in for us fans maybe or a groundshare till wasps collapse.

Is it possible to create a leisure/entertainment hub? Use the facilities to keep power league open, restaurants and bars would look at a football groundUnfortunately, getting a Supermarket to buy into the project will be difficult as the Grocery/Retail sector isn't in the same place as it was when the Ricoh project started.
Traditional supermarkets are economising as they have too much space, hence you are seeing more concessions (e.g. Sainsbury's/Argos/Habitat), anything they can do to fill the space they have.
Aldi and Lidl are looking for more space, but they tend to rely on Retail sites that are already empty, or will be emptying soon. I don't know if either business would build a new store from scratch, but I doubt they'd want to spend £60m on a site.
The only way I can see it could be managed is if an investor was to build a new Retail Park and lease out the space. Maybe this is in SISUs grand plan?
I hope it happens but it does seem pie-in-the-sky to me still.
Yes I’m sure
What are sisu supposed to do when the council won't even meet with them ffs.
Completely agree. What’s coming out of the council is inconsistent at best. They say they’ve ‘only’ had this yet have confirmed meetings have been taking place. Why are they having meetings then?I know people will / are saying about it being on two sheets of A4, but this is an initial enquiry - most likely just to see if the site is even available to purchase & enquiries about the listed buildings and such, wouldnt it ? the first enquiry someone makes on a site is not going to be a fully loaded planning application. Come on , you can have the wool pulled over your eyes by this 'two sheets of a4' flippant comment... or you can accept that , for an initial enquiry, two sheets of A4 is more than enough. You could say a 2 bloody line email would be enough for an initial enquiry !! and certainly enough to warrant a reply - especially given its form the City's main football club
Thing is, they met with Council people a couple of weeks ago. It doesn't add up what that was about if it has been on hold at the council end since March 2018.
I'm sure more will be said about it.
Please please stop instantly believing what the Council say. Question everything from everyone!!How can they back something that doesn't exist? Two sides of A4. Really? How Mickey mouse is that?
The game changed with SISU’s statement.
This new stadium, bollox or not; SISU are forcing hands. I bet there are council rooms full of people repeating the word ‘shit’
Tough shit!As much as I want this to happen, a new stadium, fuck wasps up, fuck the CCC off completely, CCC will not want a 2nd major stadium in the city, unfortunately as it would fuck wasps up and leave an empty Ricoh.
I bet there's not.The game changed with SISU’s statement.

Agreed, but they'll find a fuckin way to stop it.Tough shit!
Did he say that or are you clutching at straws?
I bet there's not.
Why should they be bothered?
Just bide their time let it run its course and start again.
Rinse / Repeat......
I said open letters from the start.That's when Duggins became uncomfortable it seems.
I can see an "open letter" coming out after this one too with some emails on it or something.
