The difficulty in buying a farmer's field is the risk.

If NTFC wanted to pay the minimum agricultural price, that would be a great risk.

To lessen the risk, they would have to discuss the land with NBBC, as to the likelihood of achieving a satisfactory Planning Permission.

If the football club received a favourable response from the Council, then the intended site would have a 'hope' value & the purchase price for the land would increase.

Edit:

If you wanted to take that further & the Council advised that a satisfactory Planning Permission could be achieved, the farmer would then receive a payment based on Building land prices, on condition that he paid the football club's Planning costs.

So there are different scenarios that can be played out.

Second Edit:

Just to clarify:-

The football club would pay for the Planning costs initially & then when the satisfactory Planning Permission is gained, a purchase price would be agreed with the farmer & at that stage the Planning costs would be deducted from the farmer's payment.

So, the Planning risk will always remain with the football club.
