Ten pages of rubbish! all about something that is still speculation!

Are you really that slow?
1. You claimed that I was unable to comment on the location of the potential new ground because I live far away, but you were, even though your assessment was wrong and mine was correct.
2. You weren't sure of the development of plough lane, but I was....even from 12k miles away

Its not speculation...........it is a done deal.

my god what a pathetic thread. No wonder quite a few don't come on here.

When are the children going !!! Can't stand this forum.

Many, many years ago, Liverpool City RLFC played at the magnificent Knotty Ash Stadium. They developed it, within their meagre means, mainly by fencing it and erecting a nice little grandstand which had become surplus to requirements at either Saints or Widnes. The fact that the land was owned by a nearby Carmelite convent was apparently of little issue, though no doubt permission had to be obtained.

The convent did however reclaim the land, I guess when the lease expired, maybe 30 or so years later, prompting the disastrous move to Huyton.

I guess this stuff can cut both ways.
I know that Nottingham City Council own the freehold to both football grounds (Meadow Lane and the City Ground), which is why when some dodgy con artists bought Notts County thinking they'd get their hands on the freehold they came unstuck (though not before fleecing about £200k out of the club).
Trouble is, it only takes one money grabbing council to put the freeholds up for sale, and it could all go to pot.

There's quite a lot of circumstantial evidence pointing in that direction.

stop harking on about the past......London Broncos have no need of fans.....especially not away ones!

And yet this thread and it's brother discussing the new home before ETF was confirmed are responsible for more traffic than the other threads combined? Go figure! Those posters who no longer visit this site number in the dozen or maybe dozen and a half. Those fans who don't attend games any more number in their thousands, but let's blame Jim Pooley because he's discussing something that makes us uncomfortable.
What is pathetic is the number of fans willing to cast blame on an internet poster rather than looking slightly closer to home as to why we're a mid table team in the 2nd tier looking at playing at something similar to Chiswick Poly next year.


Is that why you've posted 165 times in 10 years.....or is that down to Jim Pooley as well?

Here's a gem of yours from September 2014.

...and people call me depressing!

Drone

Here are the owners of the freehold ]

He seems to be a very generous supporter of various charities. If this means we can buy into owning at least part of the facilities, and they can get planning permission to develop the ground (big ifs i know) then i might believe this is a slightly better move. I do agree with Jim Pooley on some of his statements. i am a late comer to the broncos started watching cup final year having moved to London, we then had 4000+ fans in a great stadium, we have fallen an awful long way and the mismanagement of the club has been breathtaking. Maybe this is rock bottom and the only way is up, but i am not sure. Fingers crossed............
