TUFC Consultation Survey 2017

[Neal]

POSTED THIS MONTHS AGO!

The business model will be, make money on the land at Plainmoor, what ever way they can.

Build a new stadium, owned by some company owned by Osbourne. They will then get rid of the club to whoever (could even give it away), BUT the rent will be extortionate and will be on a short lease. All the other enterprises at the so called stadium will also pay rent to GI, NONE of that money will come to the club. The clubs revenue will depend on us the fans and the new owners generosity. its simple and obvious.

If that penny aint dropped yet, you are so naïve it beggars belief.

We will see if Im right in good time

You're wrong. The ground will never come across the Severn Bridge

The purpose of this survey is simply to show that fans want a new stadium, with questions loaded to produce the required results. It's a common tactic.
They will get lots of people saying yes it would be a good idea but not thinking through the downside. Other clubs have done the same.
We need an independent survey with neutral questions as anything set up by the owners will be biased to the outcome they want.

Well done for stating the obvious...that not sarcastic by the way!!!!

It's Looney tunes to think anything else , as osborne says he is not a football fan but a but a business man! , not alone a torquay united fan with the club at heart.

Once his nails are firmly gripped on this new stadium god help us. No longer a secure and reasonable rent to pay with a decent lease but instead it will be that dodgy landlord we have a had where rents only increase, any income will be passed through his lap first and of he was still controlling football club it would starved of any squad investment

DON'T fool for the propaganda talk of this club moving t
Up the league's and this that and the other. Shown there bloody hand in April with 1 goalkeeper and semi retired manager on the bench consisting of 4 bottoms.

Watching that last game on video it's a ground to be proud of and I hope it stays that way. What a insult to demolish that lovely new stand.

Exeter Chiefs announce plans for new £25m hotel at Sandy Park: http://www.devonlive.com/exeter-chiefs- ... story.html
They're in Rugby Union's Premiership, of course. When we reach the giddy heights of such a stratosphere at Plainmoor (e.g. top of League One), then perhaps will be the time to think about a new stadium and developments. After all, Plymouth Argyle are now back in League One and are still waiting for their new grandstand. And Exeter City are still waiting for a new away end..

I would agree that the club needs added revenue streams, but why does it have to be a new stadium. I would have thought a new training ground with 3G pitches and other facilities which could also be used by the general public would be cheaper and of more value to the local community.
There is simply nothing wrong with plainmoor. All it needs is for somebody to work out
how to maximise income from what is already there.
Plans for the proposed new stadium reportedly include a hotel and retail outlets. The town is awash with disused hotels and vacant retail outlets; how is that supposed to raise revenue for the club. The stadium, if it was ever built is simply a property developers means to an end. The whole idea of property development is to build something whether it is needed or not, and whether it is suitable or not; remember coral island?

In fact the best way to fight GI's plans may be to undermine the case for a new stadium.

We won't win over the mayor but we can raise the profile of the issue of the sale of the lease by continuing to email councillors and candidates in the General Election. The meeting to discuss the sale of the lease is now on Monday 24th July.
