It’s not in Sainsburys interest at all, they got a good deal of Boyle years ago, why would they give up their land. Edited by Painter (05 Dec 2017 2.04pm)
As for South Norwood folding years ago...that's nothing compared with what would happen without any matchday crowds at all.

A map of SP in 2013 sent in for planning application. I think we own everything inside the bold blue line. Sainsburys definitely own the shaded car park that shoppers park in. Surely we'd be building at least slightly on their land there? The boundary is 12 yards up the pitch and making the pitch longer would make it about 15/16 yards and almost on the edge of the box. Maybe the curving of the stand gets round this but then there's the middle bulk of the stand. Don't they own and lease to us the white shaded car park, which we definitely need to build on? The 4 houses are definitely closer in that map than on the model and would need a CPO, which would probably happen. They've been moved back on the model to avoid any negative reactions because if you dropped the new stand in place right now it would go on top of those 4 houses. The new stand goes back a long way!

Maybe that's Parish's aim because there's certainly been no price agreed and it looks as though we need land to do this that they own.
I really do hope that SP has done his homework properly on all of this before releasing yesterdays scheme as there would be huge disappointment if this is a damp squib.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Stadium plans' by bexleydave Sainsbury's along with all food retailers are struggling to know what to do with their larger stores as sales have been massively hit by internet shopping and changing shopping habits. Not sure how big the store is currently but I would suggest they would probably welcome the opportunity to downsize and have a refit funded by CPFC via land sales / swap / possible use of the full CPFC car park during non match days. Possibly better frontage on to WH road.

Possible but actually increase the percentage of land they own? Very doubtful, surely.

Will take "creativity" and "good will", I just hope Parish is a smoother operator than Davis. Either way, when you explore these pitfalls, it does really expose the complexity of this that maybe some are underestimating. Edited by Mstrobez (05 Dec 2017 3.27pm)

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Stadium plans' by bexleydave Maybe a stupid question, but does anyone know why the club and Sainsburys don't seem to want to work together ? Would it not be beneficial to both parties to reach an agreement that sees us redeveloping the main stand and whitehorse, with Sainsbury's losing some land in return for a new store on a new stadium in a soon to be gentrified area. Is it because the club only want to do it stand by stand or are Sainsbury's just not interested or expecting us to buy land at a premium and then build them a new store also ?
