I suspect NBBC are tearing their hair out over that situation.

The NBBC Cabinet Report makes it clear that the Cabinet will not support the building of another football stadium.

Realistically who can criticise them?

They already own two football stadiums in the Borough, albeit one is also an athletics stadium.

Their concern with Vale View, or any other site for that matter, if they grant a 49-year lease, is whether NTFC is a sustainable business on Council owned land, hence I believe that is why they are distancing themselves from providing any financial support for the project & who can blame them?

The telephone numbers being talked about in the costings at the moment are extortionate & the sooner the FWP Budget Cost Plan is updated to include their exclusions, the better.

Then NTFC can get the knife out & bring some reality to their expectations & make radical changes to the new Stadium design & we can start to see some real progress being made & NBBC might start to take more interest in the project.

Edit:

I have seen it all before!
