What because you have planning permission now? so your in the same block as us, planning permission but nothing built,

*Colliery (iPhone mishap)

Let's get something straight, we aren't talking about the Yorkshire Dales or the Chilterns, this is a former pit left to recover after years of mining.
Having walked over parts of this site, it is only green belt in name alone.
Secondly there will be a net gain in the district, so we aren't actuall losing anything but gaining.
Sporting facilities are allowed on green belt as far as I am aware, so it makes sense to allow the infrastructure needed to make it work also.
I really cannot understand any genuine beef you have.
The SOS seems happy enough following a lengthy inquiry with some conditions, so I can't see why you can't be, unless.................

Don't think good news will be apparent at Cas for a long time

Facts have no place in this brave new world, in which the residents of a district poorly served by sports facilities object to a brand new shiny one at zero cost to the tax payer, purely to keep a rival club down.

Think of the children!

The obese ones or the ones with asthma???
