Work on Brentfords new ground has started

[Kevin Mcleod]

Dont give a shite about any other London club anymore, in a good or bad way.
That ship sailed years ago.

[Hitman34]

OP stirring? Do we really need salt rubbed into our wound like this? So what if our stadium plans are faltering, we need to have faith in the club leadership, they are competent businessmen and we will get our new stadium, screw Brentford.

agreed, uncle will sort it.

[Hitman34]

Is it failing though? Brentford have been in talks for a new stadium for almost 2 decades, they've gone through all the issues we are facing. Securing a site, planning permission, objections from the council/residents etc. Thats why I found it hilarious when people got annoyed 5 years ago when they announced we were looking. Did people assume we would get a 35k stadium just like that?

17.5k for Brentford seems a bit on the low side considering it will be their home for the next 100 odd years

uncle did say it will be built by 2018/19.

[Hitman34]

The former QPR sponsors hold a 30-acre plot on the Old Oak site where the west London club hope to build a new 40,000-seater stadium.

Rangers have support from all the major bodies required to build the new ground as soon as 2018,

He actually said it along with Phil my beard.
Will try and dig it out.

That article was written in 2014. A lot has happened since then. They thought they would be able to just flex their money and muscles and get hold of the car giant site and now who knows what's going on with the Linford Christie site. Unfortunately I can't see any of this coming to fruition before 2020 at least, and that goes for the training ground too.

Was talking to one of activists that oppose W F yesterday and she really didn't have a clue about what they are argueing about , when I told her she had bigger worries closer to home as the fields on the other side of railway were brownfield and in a bigger danger of housing development and she should be fighting that rather than W F which would remain mainly open ground available to the community , she looked shocked

With our current financial plight and crowd size I won't be losing too much sleep over a delayed new ground. The training ground is more important in the short term imo.

agree with that, only problem is that we are no nearer a new training ground than we were 2 years ago.

what is wrong with just building on harlington and getting that up to standard instead.

[West Acton]

Harlington not ours so we would be paying to improve someone else’s property with no long term benefit

We should have gone and purchased old Barclays training ground as it's been abandoned last ten years but too late now as twyford school are developing it.

Should now try and get wasps training ground back it’s only now used for their kids teams, proper side train elsewhere here
