Thanks for this Gustavus.

Eureka!

My advice to NTFC's Board now would be to ZERO-IN on AVENUE ROAD & don't waste any more time looking at the other proposed sites.

The cost of a Site Investigation & producing the other biodiversity/ecological reports should be a lot more manageable at the Avenue Road site.

Regarding Vale View, I would refer the Board to the problems that Scarborough Athletic have faced at their Stadium, where the pitch drainage has failed & the remediation works to rectify the problem & lay a new 3G pitch is costing £3million+ all paid for by North Yorkshire Council, who own the Stadium.

The long term problem at Vale View could be the prospect of settlement/differential settlement on that site, given the underlying ground conditions, this has to be considered if this site is preferred/chosen.

Also, the unknown extent of the potential exceptional costs due to the ground conditions that could be encountered on that site, which will have to be paid for by NTFC.

Edit:

As an aside Gustavus, is there still a glimmer of hope at Liberty Way?

I respect your choice not to answer that question.
