Just seen it on Sky Sports News , 12000 capacity , £20million , looks fantastic , so why can't we have one like that instead of a 6000 capacity thing were supposed to be getting & best laugh is the Rotherham ground is called "The New York Stadium "

Barlby,

Hope your well,

You also have to ask what on earth the COYC Stadium 'Tsar' has been doing for £60k per year ! He can't have been talking to the right people as there are many stadium development models he could have followed, several all over UK have been developed far quicker and more appropriate

somewhwere with good access including a rail link somewhere like the old civil service.
question, how are 1to2 thousand away football fans who have arrived by train, then had a drink in the city centre, going to get to monks cross?
