Just from a personnel point of view belle vue 5 mins from home park at bottom of heath common 5 mins walk to ground, not too bothered about facilities as i can get a drink find a toilet easy enough watch boys 5 mins back to car 5 mins home, job done. As for the ground just a coat of paint and a new stand on the west side will do for me . as i say just personnel.

Hope you are not driving.

He ment to say a beer shandy

For sentimental reasons Belle Vue, but i have serious doubts to whether enough funds could be raised to make it look anything other than a bodge it up job as it's so far gone. In an ideal world the better, more practical, choice would be starting from scratch at Newmarket although like others i was never struck on its location.



My worry is that if we don't get anything out of Yorkcourt then it will ultimately be neither.

Still alcohol isn't it.

Old Jim lives on the bella, was watching Wakey before I was born, I'm sure he'd agree with you if you told him he was too idle to bike it up there.

I think he's drinking something a lot stronger than Shandy (possibly 24 hours a day with some of the utter tripe that gets posted)

Newmarket will be a no starter, and that's fine by me. Trying to get the public to visit a stadium with nothing around it in the middle of an industrial estate, and only one A road to it would have proved troublesome . Free buses I bet,

Wipe the slate clean, back to the drawing board and start again.

Thornes Park would have been perfect but we have a backward council. Newmarket was then stated as our only option but that looks unlikely now and is abit out of the way, they're plenty of other sites within the City boundary old empire stores site, paragon etc but if our only option is to stay and upgrade Belle Vue I'd be happy as long as it's well thought our and a proper redevelopment.

I would sooner visit an area that you describe as opposed to Agbrigg. Lets face it apart from the ground why the hell would anyone want to go down there. You can create a great ground down there if you have the money but the surrounding area will always massive negative.

A industrial estate? I suggest you walk on Aberford Road and look how beautiful the fields are and the River its picturesc. The KC doesn't look that bad does it? Aggbrig is beautiful and the empty superbowl and the empty montys bar. Look amazing?! I travel 5minutes by car to belle vue or I pay 6 pound in a taxi not once do I moan if people think Newmarket is a bad location you are crazy, its only bad for lazy people who ain't true fans. Away fans its ideal also.

As it's taken you an hour and a half to reply, I take it you have been having a stroll in the fields and by the river to back your statement up and make you feel better?

Do most fans frollick in the fields before a game?

It will take more than fields and a river to get the fans flocking in!

What about the Conny Club? The Duke? The Ruddy Duck?

I praised the KC, if you missed that?
