    Doing a bit of digging online it seems the school closed in July 2016. There was a suggestion to mothball it so it could be reopened as a school at a later date if the demand was there. That doesn't seem to have happened with the education minister describing it as 'very uneconomical'. Not much...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    But on the Wasps forum they claim there can't be any issues at Wasps as they're about to move in to their new state of the art training ground :pompus:

    I had a look last night and I can't find anywhere on the council website that shows cabinet approval. Can you point me in the right direction. Given the time the council have been claimed to be sat on this proposal from the club, something the council haven't denied, I sincerely hope they...

    Could not agree with this more. Pressure should now be on the council to either clearly state why this is a non starter or to do a deal similar to the one they have with Wasps for car park C at the Ricoh. They have given Wasps an 18 month license there in which time they don't have to pay a...

    Believe it is education and sporting so that wouldn't be an issue. It was Cllr Maton, when he was the council chair of planning, who first mentioned housing on that site.

    They're building from the Windmill out aren't they. That might not be what is being referred to hear.

    No haven't seen that. Can see there was a consolation that ended in December for a school and sports village but nothing since then on the council site. When was it approved? Of course reusing the existing buildings doesn't necessarily rule out other uses for the rest of the site. Keep saying...

    You can demolish grade 2 buildings with permission from the local authority can't you?

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I would like to say people aren't stupid enough to fall for it but evidence would suggest they are.

    You might want to sit down as I've got some shocking news for you. Bus routes can be changed. You can even, get this, have special match day bus services. Unbelievable stuff.

    Wasn't me who said they could block it. Just after more details than a vague 'it will never be allowed'.

    A lot of what is being thrown around in this thread could apply to pretty much every stadium under construction. The new Tottenham Stadium, Wimbledon, Everton, Brentford, Luton etc. London Stadium is a nightmare to get away from, I got stuck there for nearly 2 hours. No doubt it will be...

    On what specific points would it be blocked by the Highways agency and fall foul of planning regulations? People talk like every other ground is next to a motorway with parking for 50K cars. There's plenty of grounds, and venues for other events with huge numbers of spectators, that are in...

    Everyone should be behind this. If you don't believe SISU will build a stadium then pressure on the council to move it forward and calls SISU's bluff. If you do believe SISU will build a stadium then pressure on the council to move it forward and get it built as quickly as possible...

    Statement- EFL has written to its Member Clubs regarding the Sky Blues.

    Its interesting that last time nobody wanted to and this time we seem to have a choice of a few grounds. What has been said to those clubs to make them think this time is any different?

    Derby County sell stadium

    Absolutely, it could take decades to get all grounds under club ownership but allowing things like this is going backwards.

    Works for me. Over to the council. Let’s see things moving forward. Then SISU have to get on and build it or admit it is BS.

    Should have imported drugs, you'd be able to buy the club off SISU by now.

    24 Hours in Police Custody

    I need to stop watching the bit where they tell you the sentences. Imported £2.5m of drugs, been jailed for it before yet only got 25 months, will be out i a year.
