vulva Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 I thought we tried to sell Middlewood Road to Asda? If we don't own it, that would have been a brilliant deal. TBF Sheffield City Council wouldn't have a clue either way. Right set of left wing dumplings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both would have seen us split the cash with the council and both failed due to planning issues (in fact we didn’t even submit the housing one as it had no chance).

Offside_Owl Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 The council own the land, we have a long lease. The deal to sell the training ground would have given the council a big wedge for the land while we would have got £10m in compensation for surrendering the lease.

That's correct - there's about 50 odd years left on the lease and that's why Allen struggled with the negotiations, along with him misreading the council's appetite to change the use @ Middlewood to housing and getting Westfield as part of the deal. The back-office of the SYP police and Fire Service are merging shortly with a lot of assets likely to be sold. As we don't need to change the planning use at Niagara, it's likely we would be in a good position if Niagara became available. There are two full size pitches which would make perfect sense to merge. Just the issue of getting consent for a footbridge across the Don which shouldn't be hard.

Can't get my bearings with that picture. Is the Jubilee next to it, or is it all classed as Niagara? Used to be a decent pitch that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The back offices of SYP and SYFR sharing some facilities / premises will have absolutely no impact on whether SYP sell Niagra or not, it's still years away as a reality .

Burnsie Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 When I worked for the police, I was told that Syp swfc and another organisation that I can't remember we're in talks to merge facilities, such as a medical facility.... Apprently, too many big personalities around the negotiating table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
