ha ha your at it again SDD, let me explain to you one more time because your clearly not getting it! It was 'THE CLUB' that suggested a new stadium not me. Their infrastructure increases, only increases mind, their chances of promotion, not just the stadium. We'll see where we will be playing in 10 years time because I don't think we'll be playing in the same league as reading, brighton or southampton. The new stadium would be my preferred option and that would be a 'LONG TERM INVESTMENT'. It shouldn't take a genius to work these things out. Why build the new wembley, the emerates, the new stand at anfield, saints present ground or the new white hart lane....... LONG TERM INVESTMENT.
Forget what the club said - they've since said that it's not worth the investment (in so many words) so we know what they think about the situation.
I'm talking about what you say. You are the only person who says it doesn't matter if we only get 16k in the championship - it obviously does because the ground gives a poor return even if we stay up. If we go down it is a dreadful investment no matter how many times you say the return doesn't matter. Maybe if you'd have put LONG TERM INVESTMENT in capitals a couple more times the numbers would actually add up.
To completely dismiss the financial realities of the situation and practically demand a new ground whilst ignoring the consequences that relegation and 16k attendances would have for the owner is a staggering level of entitlement. The guy didn't need to invest a penny in AFCB - but he did. He owes you absolutely nothing.
