Building a ground at Woodlands? Utter rubbish. Something for the local press and this board to get excited about but anyone who believes that SISU will build a stadium anywhere is seriously deluded. Treating the supporters as fools-again.

ExcellentNot a soulless value engineered bowl like the Ricoh would be a start.
Something a bit different would be great. If this miracle was to happen I'm sure it would conform to the usual sort of thing you get.A new ground, individual stands as opposed to the standard "bowl"?
2 tiered stands and a new west terrace would be great!
Honestly the number of wankers on here saying that they’ll be no stadium and NOT on the SISU statement thread is amazing.
Got fucking nowt to say on the council but fucking tons to say about SISU not building a stadium.
Total cocks.
Can’t we wait and see what happens before ridiculing the whole shebang?
I presume the very same knobheads were equally as vociferous when Bryan Richardson announced stadium 2000?

I genuinely think the new stadium talk is just bollocks, no chance of it happening.
But the fucking council need to grow some balls and put this to the test, call their bluff to prove it. Someone has to blink first, we're the football equivalent of brexit.
That's a fair copJust to correct, the drawings looked awful.
Just been on the eastern green group on Facebook. (I lied earlier about being banned for comedic effect) And they are surprisingly receptive to the idea. There’s one with just over 100 comments and it’s about 60/40 in favour.
Much needs to be explained though. You can't take any of these chancers at their word.Depending on how they develop the site it could bring jobs, shopping, entertainment, etc. There are always positives to counter balance the negatives to the local area.
When was the building put up? Grade 2 listing is not much of a protection. You can apply to de-list. It usually just means older than 1840 and was part of a general listing of old buildings done in 1978.(iirc). Depends on the historical significance, the surrounds and state of repair of the building, or so I was advised when I tried to get a building de-listedYou can demolish grade 2 buildings with permission from the local authority can't you?
They're building from the Windmill out aren't they. That might not be what is being referred to hear.

Especially gven that we've heard so many different stories over the years, why only 3 months ago the Ricoh was plan A & there was no plan B.
1) How will it be financed so that the club isn't holding massive debt (like Wasps are)?
2) Who pays for road improvements?
3) Where is parking?
4) Site plan, what else goes on the site, what is lost/demolished, what additional facilities are expected to be provided?
5) Time frames?
Really surprised they are listed, what is it with English Heritage treating Cov like a museum of post war shite? Some of our post war buildings are good but the Circular Market, the building opposite Drapers and Woodlands School, do me a favour!Here I've suprimposed the Ricoh (less jaguar hall /most of hotel / casino etc.) over part of woodlands site without even touching existing school buildings.

That just cracked me up. Was a former student there myself and remember Mr Hoy. Short, fat, bald little Irish fella we knicknamed ‘Penfold’Remember it well. We got moved to portacabins. One day, science teacher “mr hoy” saw someone through a window trying to steal a bike from the bike sheds. He opened the door and asked us to run after them. Cue 25 kids running towards a guy trying to cut a chain and steal a bike.
Imagine that these days

Sisu are going to build a tube line to the new stadium too?best comparisons of urban sites so far are London and clearly they have a tube network and isn’t reliant on roads to move people about.
Yeah, but Brexit was 52/48 and look where that got us.Just been on the eastern green group on Facebook. (I lied earlier about being banned for comedic effect) And they are surprisingly receptive to the idea. There’s one with just over 100 comments and it’s about 60/40 in favour.
