Quote Hatfield tiger="Hatfield tiger"But why at the begining of the statement say that the club are not concentrating souly on NM, then list a number of alternatives and then revert back to discussing the NM project which previously was stated as being something which you have little control over at the moment.
Not the clearest of statments i am sure you would agree'"
He says Newmarket is Plan A which means to anyone with half a brain cell that they must have to other plans and low and behold, he tell you about some alternative plans, but goes back to discussing Plan A because it is Plan A! How anyone could read anything more into that statement, other than exactly what it said, is beyond me!
As for time frames I think he is unwilling to comment because it remains possible that things outside the clubs control (and others control) could still change that BUT, we are hearing that the public hearings have been tacitly scheduled for later this year (and normally a decision comes three to four months following this) and also the LDF is scheduled to be completed to be ratified and approved by the full council in March 2012. The LDF is on quite a defined and reasonably rigid time line and the chances of this being delayed more than a couple of months, never mind a long time beyond this are very slim. The chances are by March/April 2012 the future of Newmarket will be known... of course, we can't say with any certainty what the outcome of both process will be yet and that is the of course the £20m question!
