Hopefully the Premier League clubs vote in favour of scrapping VAR at next months AGM. It's got worse each season sine it's implementation. Fingers crossed. 🤞🤞.

Won't happen mate don't think top 6 will vote for it

They'll promise to make it better blah blah n we'll still sit for 3 minutes not having a clue what's happening

Don't necessarily blame the tech its the incompetent clowns who operate it and decide when n when not to use I. e. mr ant Taylor n his luton mate.

The cost of Everton’s new build has risen from £500m to £800m, they are looking for investment for the£300 m extra needed.
These figures just make moving another crazy decision from theForest Board, they don’t even want to pay an £750, 000:a year in rent.
Season cards would cost tons more and if relegation calls a ground at Toton would be half empty and the atmosphere Silz.
Time for of owner to grow up and start being realistic.
All pie in the sky.
CARLO.

There's a reason though carlo
Brexit and covid put the cost of building materials up massively
If marinakis wants to build a new stadium or revamp the city ground then that's a good thing surely?
After all its his money
Everton have many more problems than just the stadium, Russia going to war hasn't helped them either and an owner that wants out.

Your right but as has been mentioned he's a business man that's what unfortunately football is today business and money. If the idea makes an extra 20 30 million plus a season, then more sponsors, promoters ect, ect the extra money stacks up as a long term investment.
Look at Aresnal I bet the fans were livid at the time on the move from Highbury. But now all settled, atmosphere different but getting there plus a new generation of fans
Still think 50, 000 is a lot of fans, I would say teams like us, Fester and the shaggers could fill 40, 000 if in the prem. Still there's no place like home and the City Ground is that.

16 May 2024 14:46:42
Teams like Chelsea, west ham, Newcastle are averaging 10 to 15 thousand supporters extra every home game. If we are trying to compete in the Premier, we will have to inprove the attendance.
If we move why not a ground share with county, up there stadium to Premier standard, it's a win, win for them. And just down from the City Ground is a piece of land with a car wash place on it, going for auction on Friday for about two million, land does not come cheep, so building in West Bridge ford area I can't see happening.

As with all old things, they come to the end of the road, just like us old gits that love the City Ground, we die off, and eventually forgotten, when our generation and possibly the one attending the City Ground today dies off, if a new ground is built The City Ground will just become history and forgotten. How fantastic would it be though for the younger generation to attend Forest matches in a fantastic new stadium, but for me not at Toton. Another part of the city fine, the land at the other side of the station great if large enough, I’ve seen all my Forest games at the City Ground obviously and would love to see us stay there with a completely redeveloped Ground, but If that's not possible, and I mean really not possible and we have to move, so be it. Just Football Progress.

Sorry lads got called for my tea, and when her who shall be obeyed calls 😇😇anyway what I wanted to add was, if we do decide to move, I should say that if Mr Marinakis decides we move, I hope the money is fully in place to pay for it, we don't want Mr M spitting his dummy out half way through the build and walking away with the job only half way done, leaving the club in the sh/ + and in big debt, get your money out upfront Mr M. Don't come with big ideas, and not enough cash, I’ve seen it with my sons business, big money people wanting jobs done, not putting money upfront, and going bankrupt 🤪🤪😂half way through the job, with the subbies and workers hundreds of thousands in debt.
So for all our sakes get the financial side sorted, obviously I know that Mr M and his advisers have far more experience than me in these matters, but we have seen these things happen before.
So with an old supporters hart on his sleeve, with my love for my Forest club, all I ask Mr Marinakis, if we leave the City Ground, YOU Better get it fu (£/ #@ well right. 😤😤.

Terrible, non-dual carriageway roads in the Toton area, flooding on roads which are badly in need of repair, congestion every day around Beeston and the university, lots of speed cameras, traffic lights and appalling drivers. And as you say difficult access for people on the East of the city - Nottingham centre will come to a standstill without infrastructure development. A nightmare.

97% of season card renewals great.
But how many season cards are there?

16 May 2024 13:48:08
Apparently as of yesterday morning only a thousand hadn’t renewed, with tonight the Final Cut off,

15 May 2024 18:50:39
If Toton goes ahead half of us on here will be dead before it’s ready 😇😇😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️
CARLO.

Age is just number carlo
The main thing is to be as healthy as possible and forward thinking.

15 May 2024 14:09:19
Should we stay or should we go?
If we stay, there could be trouble.
If we go it could be double?
Option 1. Council sells land to Maranakis, CG is developed, we stay.
Option 2. New purpose built stadium, training ground and facilities.
Can we have a poll please Ed's?
Stay at City Ground or Elsewhere?

{Ed033's Note -


City Ground or Elsewhere poll

15 May 2024 15:02:08
Can’t really vote on the above, as we would need to know what and where we are moving to, and what the city ground development would actually entail,

15 May 2024 15:17:37
We will definitely be in toton, mr m can see a blank canvas to make a lot of money there. You only have to look around the area and see that there is little or no facilities for the supporters, he has the room to put in place bar’s cafes anything that will bring in money. He can’t do that where we are now, he’s seen how much money we supporters spend around the ground. Toton gives him the opportunity to take that money for himself. He didn’t put the new fan zone in for love, it was put in to test the water. You don’t become a billionaire without taking a chance.

Geographically Toton is awful. It's virtually in Derbyshire. An absolute nightmare to get to unless you are using the M1.
Anyone travelling from East of Nottingham would be really peed off.

15 May 2024 16:46:36
Not sure where exactly they talking about in toton you've got the school n behind that are couple of fields and a rubbish farm but then you have toton sidings a main through route for trains.

Plus toton full of plastic snobs who will oppose it big time on their doorstep.

15 May 2024 23:09:51
Cameron island, near Tollerton airport, that is the best place.

16 May 2024 07:47:48
Gamston, not Cameron. Stupid predictive text.
