The council can and will offer potential sites.
People seem to be forgetting this process was enacted 20 odd years ago and all sites failed - that’s why they ended up at LW in the end.
Being offered a site and getting planning permission is another story.
Forget any sites surrounded by housing - there will be big opposition and who can blame them.
Remember the Jubilee centre site? The locals turned up at the meeting and shot the whole thing down.
I see town at Beduth for years. Remember how many other clubs have lost their grounds and been in exile for ages. Bigger clubs than town too. Bristol Rovers were in Bath for years - Darlington still at that Rugger ground- Leamington? How many years have they been out in the sticks? Worcester? Took them some time to get anything. In today’s world planning is a mine field , it s very hard to get anything built in Britain these days without years of wrangling. And money talks and Town have very little . Take a look at google earth and the Borough plan - sites exist BUT problems exist with most, residential opposition and money to develop and provide access.
As much as I hate to say it LW as a site is probably the only option and only of a new relationship with Nuns could be build . Who thinks that would happen though?

Who knows who dares to dream?
