Should have added the walk from either Tooting or Wimbledon is about 30 mins depending on your mobility. Could also try mainline from Waterloo/Clapham Junction to Earlsfield & walk from there about 20 minutes or so.

| Quote: Mash Tun "Update from tonight’s Dons Trust meeting.
The chief exec says Broncos are “chomping at the bit”
Three hoops to jump through before it’s a done deal
If there is any "chomping at the bit", it must be Buck & Dusty as that's what horses do!
Of the 3 hurdles, it is encouraging that the fans seem to be welcoming. I don't know how much of the site Galliard have sold but with prices from £450,000 for a 1 bed up to £750,000 for a 3 bed apartment, but i wouldn't buy there if there was a chance of not only having my Saturdays blighted by football fans but my Sundays in the summer too by rugby fans. It is a densely built site.
As for Merton Council, that will probably depend on revenue & votes. Still a long way to go i think.

Or a 7 minute walk from Haydons road Thameslink.

Yep but 2 trains an hour is almost Brentfordesque.

| Not sure anywhere it has been said that a move would would solve all the problems, and as such not sure why its a pile of sh@te.
Trailfinders is a nice little ground, but its just that, little! As many have pointed out.
The club is not in a financial position or unlikely ever will be in a financial position to own its own ground, so next best thing is going to be a ground share of a suitable stadium. I like many would have loves Brentford it didnt happen.
Wimbledon personally access for me not good, but again for me at least its not east london.
How wimbledon would work with training facilities i dont know, but the club must have thought of that.
So far from being a pile of! as suggested, it might be the change thats needed, is it worse than doing nothing?

| So ....Plough Lane is quite a way off being a done deal....What has this done to our relationship with Trailfinders?....Do we just return next season or have we managed to pi$$ them off with our loftier ambition ?....Hope not.....

| If it was possible, being based at Ealing (training/admin etc) and then playing at PL would seem like a decent idea.

| I'm suprised they're crowing about it before it's even completed remember when Hounslow Council promised we'd be co-tenants with Brentford FC at the future Lionel Rd Developement?

You're a dishonest poster.
The club could say and do absolutely anything and you'd find some way to agree with or defend them.

| Why does stating my opinion make me dishonest?
Maybe i understand that i am a supporter of the club, a fan, how the club is run is up to them. Have said it many times i turn up i support the club, or turn up and work for the RFL. I dont presume to know how to run a club or know better than those that do.
If i disagree with what the club do then its pointless constant whinging as what i say or what i think aint going to change it.
More to the point, everyone can have an opinion, if you dont like someone elses opinion that fine.

An opinion would be something you'd thought about and come to a conclusion on.
You just parrot everything the club do and say.
