Those are pretty decent results for us aren’t they?

How many people voted in favour in the county poll?

 

[Followtheox1]

So they 2073 people who live in a village of 15,000 are against the building of a football stadium near by, if that’s all they can get out then it’s not exactly overwhelming opposition is it?

It says the electorate is about 10,000 so only around 20 percent of them don't want to support a stadium being built in Kidlington. In addition, the plan is for a stadium on the outside of Kidlington anyway.

Just under half want it and just over half want it who bothered to vote with 70% who don’t care enough to vote on it either way. Victory I’d say.

 

[West Oxon U’s]

Just 20 per cent of the ‘franchise’ oppose the building of the new stadium.

 

[Jolteon]

20% of the electorate say no.

So that means 80% either support the stadium or don't care enough to vote against it. Pretty clear cut - despite FoSB claims, Kiddlington are NOT against the building of the stadium

 

[Made-in-Jericho]

So out of a population of 15000 Kidlington residents, only 14% don't want a stadium. Hardly overwhelming evidence is it.

I think the last bit is a key point, it’s not in Kidlington.

It sets a ridiculous precedent if 20% of a neighbouring settlement is enough to put the kybosh on something, 2000 people is enough to stop any thing being built. If Oxfordshire county council listens to them then they might as well put the shutters up and declare the county closed to business.

The vote was out of 10,000 so 20% but your point stands.

We took a third of the votes in a poll that was called before we even had the chance to put plans out to be discussed. The parish council themselves said it was premature. These polls always come down anti, especially early on, but supporters have done a great job of highlighting the positives and setting things up for proper, meaningful consultation. The club will listen to residents and work with them to address concerns and highlight the positives. This is actually a good platform to build from.

Time for some sleep.

 

[holdsteady]

Fair play to the 80% who either voted for it or showed support by staying at home, massive majority in favour of the building of our new stadium at the triangle.

The county council cannot ignore the 80%.

Looking forward to seeing how the Friends spin this result and start trumpeting their lies.

Wonder if this will get Middleton publicly admitting his position of opposition now?

 

[OUSP]

So in round terms 20% of Kidlington residents against (not a majority of residents), 10% of residents actively for a proposal that hasn't yet been able to show the positives, and 70% either waiting to engage with planning application or don't really mind either way.

And thousands more across the county massively in favour

Correct, tonight's 80% should not be ignored.

Nor should the 80% who responded in favour last year.

Ah damn, 20% of Kidlington residents don’t want a stadium that’s not even in Kidlington. Spose we better give up now and ask Kassam really nicely if he’d accept £100m for his pile of breezeblocks.
