Utah Owl Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 4 hours ago, tarn owl said: Couldn't we just move across the road? Largely empty land and by my clearly perfect measuring with my fingers on my phone i think the ground would fit there. Apparently when old man Edwards owned Manure he spent years acquiring as much of the land around OT as possible. He had a long term vision for the stadium and the area. That is what we have lacked for years and it has to be said we have had the opportunities (i.e. Wednesdayite car park). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S36 OWL Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 1 hour ago, tarn owl said: Ok so the Triangle pitch idea is gaining traction, but there is the fact a Mcds and costa are going to be built on this next year does hinder this somewhat. So i am one for coming up with solutions, so how about this plot of land next to the M1 and large enough to have a giant pitch on. Could have parking and the stadium and with the M1 easy transport. Also could have connections to meadowhall train and tram. winner, winner i say. thoughts? Its currently being built on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howards back Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 If we were to move from Hillsborough the last place to move to would be anywhere near Meadowhall, the traffic problems would be horrendous 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better Transport links and much more space to develop a stadium. Being totally selfish a brand spanking new soulless bowl around the manafacuturing park just off the parkway will do very nicely. Bang next to the M1 with plans already in place for the trams coming out this way. Get on it DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're saying Meadowhall, then where are the shoppers going to park? You're suggestion causes far more probems that it solves. You can park easily anywhere above the Horse and Jockey even on the busiest of matchdays. it's a 15 minute walk from the ground. Don't give away my parking space or pre match pub!!

metroguy78 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 How about we buy Owlerton stadium and just move the rebuild a matching stadium to Hillsborough over there? Gives more parking spaces, room for expansion, keeps us in the area? I'm bored and love this kind of sim city style poo!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
