General New Stadium Plans - The Triangle - Land Deal

[SteMerritt]

OMG, WHERE DID YOU SOURCE THIS SECRET INFO?

That would be telling...

They have voted only 2 voted against the proposal. Danny Wright and Nigel Prestige. Only 4 watched on Zoom and two from the public attended. Disappointed but that’s the way it is. Well done to Danny and Neil for standing their ground . The chairman declined to vote.

Two of those 4 were @Colin B and myself until the link dropped off. Complete joke of a meeting, although the Tree Officer of Old Oxford Town sounds like a great guy!

And there was one moment was Muddleton climbed his high horse to complain about trees being cut down unnecessarily only to be laughed at by others saying that the Tree Office had more integrity than that!!

It's getting really boring with the sureties that KPC want from OUFC re parking and traffic queues .
OUFC is not responsible for supporters parking outside the perimeter of the Triangle or the any traffic build up !
Any stage of a journey going to watch a home game will involve , in many situations, a part use of a Car should that be to the nearest Rail Station connecting to Oxford and change or directly to parking at Oxford Parkway !
Re a pedestrian walkway , a tabular fully enclosed foot bridge is the most efficient with regards Health n Safety, stop the odd idiot climbing over the side distracting Drivers !
KPC are asking for clarification that is out of the hands of OUFC which of course they are well aware of,
It's everybody's human right to park anywhere that has no restrictions in the whole of the uk ! OUFC can only comment on the vehicle capacity within the confides of the Triangle including the hotel , nobody has any rights to tell me where or not I can park ! Surely you must see reason in my post, its obvious and staring you in the face !

I watched and recorded the OUFC relevant part of the meeting and have the footage of Cllrs Middleton and Mawson voting in favour of KPC which is clear evidence of predetermination and should no longer be able to vote on this issue on the other councils they sit on.

KPC Chair Cllr Prof. Robey abstained from voting as it was a done deal but couldn't hide his delight and made a quip about preserving his neutrality to the end.

It's extremely inappropriate for them to have taken this step during the consultation period and its clear its a cynical attempt to influence people's responses. It's just another act in a long line of disingenuous acts by KPC which Cllr Miller must ignore. I do fear however that as Cllr Miller will agree with his fellow LibDem.

The reality however is that KPC's views are meaningless. They have no control over the land and absolutely no say in what it's used for.

 

[holdsteady]

What have they actually voted for?

What have they actually voted for?

A formal position of object to the stadium.

Yes but you can guarantee they and FoSB will publicise the hell out of this decision in an attempt to influence people's responses.

 

[Foley]

A formal position of object to the stadium.

They are pretty pathetic people aren't they?
Why not engage with the consultation process? Genuinely engage.

They're trying to influence it instead.

A formal position of object to the stadium.

They do know that their vote means nothing in the grand scheme of things though?

 

[Scotchegg]

They will, but I still stand by the fact that if we can't get 10 x the number of FoSB responses then we have really fucked up. 10,000 home fans against Accrington only a few weeks ago means we should have absolutely nothing to worry about with the surveys.

Unfortunately though, too many expect others to do it instead and they could be seriously letting down the club by not giving up a few minutes of their time.

Exactly. They’re whistling in the wind. If this was SB, they’d still have influence being a sub-licensee of that. Since they don’t, why do we care what they think? What influence do they have? OCC and CDC make the decision - not KPC.

You bet your bottom dollar that when the stadium development occurs and OUFC take on the costs of the pitches at SB anyway, they’ll be delighted.

If I were OU I would investigate the issues at SB in depth before any agreement was signed.

If I was OUFC I would give them the bare minimum after the way KPC and FOSB have acted.

Well that’s always been the position of the majority of them, pretending neutrality while trying to undermine it so it might well be better that it’s out in the open.

 

[Scotchegg]

Oxford United should be, and will be good neighbours. The local sports clubs supported us moving to SB and I don't think that we should turn our backs on them simply because FoSB are a bunch of twats.

It is like anything though.
Too many against, also expect others to do it. But Middleton and followers are good at rallying the antis.
I am.not sure that Oxvox and United supporters have done as much? It is persuading people to fill in the consultation form.

We must also not forget, that many Oxfordshire communities, in general,feel much aggrieved by there inability to alter outcomes, in regard to housing developments.
(I think I read ,that between 3000 to 4000 homes are to be built in the vicinity of Kidlington/North Oxford Corridor).
Stopping a stadium is,for good or bad,there chance of a victory,there chance of a protest vote.
