To save you some time, the most recent update is:

"Regarding project itself, we have had a very constructive meeting with Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council, in which they agreed to carry out a pre-planning and highways investigation on a possible site to determine whether there are any likely “showstopper” issues that could derail the planning process, should we apply for it.
The results of this investigation will inform our decision as to whether to go ahead and commission a site survey. "

To add context, we previously identified a number of possible sites for a new ground in Nuneaton, and following initial discussions with the council commissioned a feasibility study on what was felt the most viable site. This was carried out by FWP, who are architects with subject matter expertise on the matter of non-league football grounds.

The feasibility study on balance was positive but with a few issues to overcome, but nothing unsurmountable. This has been presented to representatives of Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council along with a business plan. It was after this presentation that the council agreed to carry on the pre-planning checks mentioned above.

We still haven't discounted the other sites, these will be probably only explored further if the need arose.
