Hi Ed latest news on the new stadium site saying we have purchased land from Peel Holdings, have you heard anything yet mate the wheels seem to be in motion, bring it on we have waited for this moment for so long, onwards and upwards we go, GuernseyBlue.
{Ed002's Note - As I explained the other day, it will need a planning application, consultation, planning permission etc. before work can even begin - I suspect it is still some way off - 2020/21 perhaps?}

Do you mean to be built or to start building ed.
{Ed002's Note - Once the application is made I would expect it to be three years before it is ready to use - if the application goes in soon then that should hit 20/21.}

Quite right ed but we don't know what work has been done behind the scenes. Plans and planning permission etc maybe done and dusted based on us buying this land. May all have been done on the quiet. (we hope)
{Ed002's Note - No that is not how it works. Planning permission is based on a public processes where the plans need to be reviewed, there needs to be consultation with all concerned parties, objections need to be addressed etc. before permission is granted. None of that has happened.}

So we are looking 3/ 4 years? D.
{Ed002's Note - See above.}

Sorry clicked too early. Do other countries have to go through all this beauracracy?
{Ed002's Note - Of course.}

We can but wait. Looking forward to seeing plans and designs. Could be the massive boost the club and that area of the city needs.

Would be interesting to see if Liverpool got the CW games in 2020 would that hold up or speed up the procedure as always politics and procedure would be the biggest hurdles. interesting times ahead for the city.

My mate Jakub from down the pub who happens to be a polish builder reckons 3 - 4 month build if he and his 3 man team get the contract. Says he will need 75% cash upfront :-)
