LOL I was thinking of the ones along Eastmoor Road, but the funny thing is the ones up North Avenue were bought by QEGS as well some time ago. They put a Rugby Field and a couple of Football fields on it. They bought it around the time they sold the land near the big roundabout at the bottom of Leeds Road/Bar Lane where some new houses were built.

While the idea I feel is quite good and the stadium issues could be resolved for a fraction of the price, I do think M62 is bang on.

We need permanent but need the capital and support for the council.

MC has said previously that he would love some other business man come on board to assist.

If only this person came forward.

I really would be happy for the two items in the second paragraph to bear fruit and BV to have a full re vamp.

I would happily move away for 2 seasons to enable this to happen.

For me 2 buildings stand in our way at BV the Kitchen Showroom and the building at the side that look a bit like flats. If these were handed to the ground owners there is quite a decent land area to work with.

I also said a few weeks ago that there is a building behind the North Stand that isnt used for much, if I recall for hoarding junk. If this space was cleared could be utilised too.5

Thanks Shifty, really should take more notice.

Yes seen the new houses.

My parents and in laws both live in Outwood and sometimes have gone that way from Thornes.

Think in the 4 years I spent away from the Merrie City quite a lot of things changed

Anyone know what this was used for? Tbh I've also wondered why we have never made better use of it over the years.

It used to be used as changing rooms for the academy games when they uses to play pre match but don't know if it's used now.

Is this in the north west corner?

Cheers.

Yes.

When I was employed by the club 2011-13 it wss used ad storage, mainly furniture etc, I believe from players houses etc.

Remember having to climb over everything to get to the electricity meters to take my monthly readings.

Hard to say the exact size given all the stuff that was in there.

Just needs a couple of hours, skip, a lick of paint and all of sudden, some useful area is useful again.

I was just about to say the same about the changing rooms a few years ago.

Now that's it's been mentioned , I think I've been told before what it was used for.

in mid to late 60s it was used for changing rooms for Wakey Trinity under 17s & under 19s
