HHP planning application recommended for approval

Plus you need a rich yank or russian to fund such a move

Sad times. Seems like a foregone conclusion now, can't even be arsed to get worked up about it. Disappointed in the Trust, thought they could have done more myself.

From the outset, I was sure it would be approved.

Some bits (hotel, ice rink) I'm pleased with, others (cinema, retail units, stopping possible expansion in the future) I'm against. Some bits don't bother me one way or the other (school, dentist).

A few are against any development at all, some have fallen in love with the whole plan.

I don't see what else the trust could have done - they put together a much better plan, they asked for members' views and presented them to the club, individuals were encouraged to write to the council (and did). In any event, a letter from an organisation, like a petition, only counts for 1 vote.

What do you suggest - sit-ins in threatened trees, chaining yourself to the fence, lying down in front of heavy machinery?

Agree with most of what you say although i do believe the trust could've been more vocal, those who shout the loudest tend to get heard, a bit like IJN at a FOCP meeting !!!

The trust are now cosying up to the CEO. Now that the reluctant bidder and his jamboys seem to have got what they wanted and basically screwed any future ambition and the opportunity of attracting the latent fanbase with a stadium showing real intent, it would seem time to 'fit in' and  the resultant photo shoots of the leading players and their offspring enjoying their deemed celebrity status, will soon appear on GOS.

Only the self promoting, the terminally addicted and the dim, will be interested in following this parochial football club.

For a city club, if the PL isn't the clear target, you can forget any serious support and the odd foray into the second tier will be as good as it gets for the next 50 years.

The reluctant bidder has played a blinder and the dream is about to die.

what will happen is a stagnant 6k will follow until the side does well then the armchair fans will come back until the inevitable shit period returns and then it will be the stagnant 6k who are left.

and so on.

shame really because with money put into the club properly brent COULD make argyle a 2nd tier side easily.
im afraid he isn't THAT bothered.

And meanwhile on page 5 the Avivas are saying that they hope the micro-stand ensures we remain in the lower leagues as they like being a big fish in a little pond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Were wont even that dubious honour any-more you idiots      God give me strength.
Village team, Village supporters,Village mentality, Village ambition......As Tringy says "Aviva chose well"

Had to read it to believe it. But those individuals with their inverted outlook who wrote that will get their way and much, much more under their beloved brents mini-stand and 'development'. They will eventually realise their ultimate wet dream of expulsion from the football league and permanent non-league status.

What a bunch of W@NKERS

Brent has already said in an email to Damon (I think it was) that his priority is him and his wife only as shareholders.

Brent cares only for making as much profit as possible before he dashes off into the sunset with another fortune in the bank.

I maybe over reacting a bit but the new stand looks a bit embarrassing. I haven't shared the detail with a couple of my Cardiff mates as I think they will be shocked with how small it is. If we get up the leagues again I think the away fans will have a field day! It just doesn't look right with the shelf bit. I wonder what JB thought of St. Andrews?

The stand is embarrassing.

Who in their right mind would put concrete structures in each corner that look like German defense bunkers on a Normandy beach?  Can you imagine the sight lines sitting close to one of these?  Never mind what they will look like in a few years...  Unpainted, weeds growing out of cracks in the walls, and covered in seagull shit!

Anyway, who wants seating in a stadium when you can have a dentist?

There's a few on farm now worried the mini-stand may actually look a bit small and silly. That's becuase it is small and silly you idiots. Too late now though.

I see the "development" is taking a shoeing in the thumbs up/down .
Popular?......MY ARSE

What else should we expect from this rubbishy rag. It's not journalism - it's Brent's PR machine. Well just wait until they have to report a call in from the Secretary of State. Now that will make interesting reading.

Retard Alert :: ATD_Moderator :: their lack of grammar and style of posting looks strangely familiar, obviously a reader of this site, even gives some of our distinguished members a mention(your all famous now, the 'erald has got a worldwide readership you know !!) wonder who it could be ?

It's not one of the current mods.

We all have intelligence to be able to string a sentence together without,overusing,commas.

My guess is that it is Paul Thomas or (and probably more likely) a Nooligan pretending to be Paul Thomas pretending to be an ATD Mod.

Updated report in today's Herald.

That's interesting. Quite a different picture than the E'rold was peddling not so long ago. Perhaps De-Liar has run out of funds to influence the journo's convenient pro-mini stand slant on things?

A treble agent ?

I see that Conor Hourihane and the Argyle Angels  (cheerleaders) will be at the council offices at 1520 on Thursday.

Yeah, be party hats galore - few years down the road they will learn what long the banking fraternaty can do!! 

They're absolutely balling their  eyes out on Pasoti with reference the Herald poll, whining about being able to vote from different computers and you guessed it.......multiple accounts     As far as pot calling kettle black goes this has got to be up there with the best of them all.
Can anyone who has not been "silenced" go over there and educate those Plums on this point.

 If Newell and the gang think they can try their rent-a-mob tactics here they are seriously deluded.
I almost hope they try on what they did at the FOCP meeting, see where it gets them...the bloke and his chums are too thick to realise the damage it will do to the credibility of JB.

Sounds just like when the Pasoti multi brigade sabotaged the legitimate petition that was set up not long back.

I don't think they're that stupid. Everyone knows this is merely an approval exercise. The cheerleaders, Conor and the fans dressed in green will all be there to make good TV. Cue reporter in the foreground declaring that planning permission has been granted whilst all the janners interviewed delight that the club has been saved, momentous day for Plymouth Argyle, can't wait to get shiny new seats to sit on etc.
