Not a soulless value engineered bowl like the Ricoh would be a start.
Not a soulless value engineered bowl like the Ricoh would be a start.How can you make a modern version of Highfield Road? What would you be expecting?
Who cares if it is?...suspect a SISU PR stunt to hustle Wasps into agreeing to a rent deal.
Half of that is Tile hill wood nature reserve.Also Dean has tweeted the site boundary.
Maybe it is the land owned by CCC rather than the land under discussion.Half of that is Tile hill wood nature reserve.
I agree. Can't quite imagine SISU having a feel for supporters' needs, mind you!Not a soulless value engineered bowl like the Ricoh would be a start.
No idea, but I wouldn't cross him if I was you.How old is that zebra ?
Yup. If they are looking at concerts etc, it's quite likely to be another 'soulless bowl.'I agree. Can't quite imagine SISU having a feel for supporters' needs, mind you!
On what specific points would it be blocked by the Highways agency and fall foul of planning regulations?The highways agency wouldn’t allow it full stop and it would never get planning permission
Woodlands Academy is a site that stands out from that list.
If SQM in the columns relates to Square Metre, then given the size per SQM only a handful of sites are realisitc. As a comparison the Ericsson Exhibition hall inside the Ricoh is 6,000sqm, which Woodlands exceeds.
Half of that is Tile hill wood nature reserve.
I did suggest this would be a good site on Friday on a seperate thread, the only problem I can foresee is that some blocks are listed buildings.
Which is disgusting. Directive from central govt and local govt complicit. Can't trust any politicians ever.So what - the council and Solihull council are allowing the destruction of a massive green belt area to accommodate 10,000 houses and a shopping precinct which everyone locally objects to
As an ex pupil — this surprises me. It is 50’s concrete and was falling down when I was there 30 years ago.Some of Woodlands school is listed? Never knew that

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 locations with similar issues. They all cope somehow.
Bugger! Sold my house years ago! Wish I'd known! I might've been able to walk along to the City ground!
EtihadCurious, could you name any that have been recently built in such a built up residential area as this ?. Access would be shocking

Not a good move for me personally - it's another 7 or 8km further away from me taking the journey up to 1663km.
