The day the community stadium died.

Mackie will be cracking a bottle of Moet as club officials are forced to pose for smiley pictures with Mr Box, celebrating the magnanimity of WMDC. Pathetic.

Interesting, I wonder if all that is to buy the ground. How will upgrading be funded? So many questions.

Wasn't it bought for £400k last time. They can't be expecting that much profit.
I'm assuming those funds are redevelopment costs too.

It's what I was thinking. Time will tell. Hope this is the start of something good.

I don’t think the community stadium has died. If Council money is involved, then surely it will be a community stadium, run by the stadium trust. At the beginning of this year, John Minards said only believe club statements regarding the stadium. I hope the club/Trust’will provide details in the near future.

Surely that can't just be for the purchase of the site, Manni bought it for a song.

I wonder where W.M.D.C. have got the spare £3.5M from?
