Bluedell 5,348 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Has the Albion car park been sold? I remember hearing something about it on FF, but I don't think I realised it had definitely gone ahead, but I heard yesterday that it had. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been sold for housing apparently, but not sure if it's the Council or a private developer. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,166 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I'd be surprised if that was the case without a suitable alternative... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard that it'll be replaced by the ground behind the petrol station, but that's far smaller, so I'm not quite sure what the story is. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie - 4lads Blog 922 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 As far as I’m aware only part of the ground we own has been sold not the carpark The car park is a requirement of the club deck & main stand capacity IIRC 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should be looking to extend our footprint, not reducing it. What part has been sold? Yes, the Albion was part of the club deck requirements, but I wouldn't be surprised to see that waived if the Council were to benefit from it by allowing them to buy the land. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
