Is now dead in the water. In terms of getting a new stadium this is not great news I’m afraid.

If Mowden go bust there's a stadium we can probably buy for a quid! Not that we could realistically afford to run it.

It might get demolished and we might be able to use some of the land, you never know. Anyone got a spare £10 million?

RS has always had an eye on that land and has even loaned money to MP in the past.

I just wonder if this is the opportunity Raj has been waiting for with the SV a thing of the past, rather than propping up Poolies with nothing to show for it.MPRC did state they had another option to look at.

10m doesn't last long sometimes, just tell that to Mowden

Let them demolish 3 sides then ask them to leave the Main Stand up.

Then transfer the Tin Shed behind one goal and the seated stand at BM behind the other. Oh and leave the toilet blocks up.

If we did get the Arena, let's arrange a friendly with Poolie and let them demolish it for us. Oh and we don't want toilets that block up ;)
