despite the land behind the moors and any subsequent development affecting Kidlington residents ( my sister included- she lives on the moors) much more and potentially on a permanent basis, than a stadium on a small piece of land between oxford rd & frieze way, opposite oxford parkway. Their inaction regarding LBTM development speaks absolute volumes about the pressure groups who are made up of basically the same people.
They are the same people, remember LBTM posting on their Facebook group about what FoSB are doing? They are both McIvor led hobbies. Very sad indeed.
 
Just a polite reminder to add more supporting comments to the Planning Portal.

Billy copied this letter (below) on to the forum recently. Paul Batt’s clear and succinct letter to the OM neatly highlights the key issues and we now know - as if we didn’t already - that the club will be homeless in 2028 making the Very Special Circumstances of relocating to the ‘green belt’ or what now appears to be grey belt compelling.

The joint press statement from OUFC & Firoka is irrefutable evidence that the club cannot remain at the current stadium - Firoz Kassam does not want us to stay.

If you have a spare five minutes TODAY kindly add your supporting comments.

This is the Portal link for those comments: https://planningregister.cherwell.gov.uk/Planning/Comment/24/00539/F
Submitted my 6th batch of supportive comments to CDC Planning Portal just now
 
Dont forget right back at the beginning, Victoria, Suzanne and Ian all used language right from the off calling fans thick, stupid hooligans.

You start your campaign off on the attack, you can expect attacks back
Yep the term "football fans" was always used in a negative derogatory way.

Back in the days when Sue was of the "Harbourd Road residents associated"

The consultation was "hijacked by football fans" and later on it was "football fans aren't known for their love of flowers"

Yes in the main, same group of NIMBYS looking to stop the housing, which would stop the cricket moving, which stops more pitches being provided at SB for the much needed football pitches and scope for an all weather. I'm alright in my big house up or off the Moors, sod the young people. These people are not just trying to stop OUFC, they make my blood boil. Rant over I'll go back into my hole now.
 
But it's not so much the unwillingness to get out and vote. It's the fact their isn't anyone promising to do anything for the working class or the younger generation. Alot of the politicians around here are nearing pensioner age and are really out of touch with the youth. I get it , to be a politician you need alot of time on your hands and that's why they tend to be older. I was only going to vote this time round as the independent is the same age as me and has similar views but when I see the reform logo next to his name that was a big no no as I don't agree with alot of their views.
That’s the reason Middleton gets in, Paul batt is in your corner, literally batting for your generation, he can see what’s coming for you.
You bothered to get off your a**e and vote, please don’t ruin the next one, we need Neanderthals like him gone from politics.
He’s probably not your local councillor but most local councils have a Middleton type, ours wanted the high st shut to traffic because cars were too noisy coming past his house, that would have shut 8 businesses down, he didn’t give a s**t about that. It really proves what these people are like, selfish, don’t give a f**k types, get them out of making decisions that affect the majority of people.
I went to a party in a pub a few years ago and was queuing for a pee when a bloke walked into the bog , said f**k waiting for a p**s walked passed everyone and had a p**s in the sink, then walked straight out again, didn’t even have the decency to wash his hands, my stepdaughter who was working behind the bar at the time got to hear about it and gave him a bottle of bleach and a cloth and told him to go back and clean it up, he knocked on my door two weeks ago asking for my vote. I reminded him of that night and he walked off shaking his head. 😂

That's a hilarious story!

There is a Middleton type near my mum's who wanted to stop the local park cafe serving little bottles of wine with their Sunday lunches. Said it would encourage binge drinking!

Same busybody then got upset when the council relaid the football pitches in the same park - "the park is not for just footballers!" They bleated.

The scourge of the NIMBY is everywhere
 
Loving IM complaining about somebody avoiding rent obligations after his crying in the media about his own situation with his business.
Imagine how he would feel if we rightly blamed him for his rental agreement falling apart concerning his own business in 2014? Especially when he agreed to his rent agreement then wanted to change their terms and conditions afterwards.

He would be going absolutely mental. He loves to play the victim when it's him on the receiving end. Conspiracy theorist and detective when it's someone else on the receiving end

Bloke is a massive massive hypocrite.
 
That sounds good to us BUT...
The councilers may see that as threats. The most of the council want the best for their people and have all the facts.
The lies posted by fosb and folk influenced by their lies will be rejected.

Hope so. So far representations from FoSB, namely their 'independent' ecological survey have been unfathomably accepted by CDC and hsve caused delays.
 
Again I feel to many of us are too soft , this isn’t a walk in the park , many of us live for Oxford United alone , I’m not saying break the law BUT let these c***s know exactly who there dealing with
Be loud be proud , our club is for life

I don't care if anyone thinks I'm soft, I care about the future of our club and that means getting the stadium plans approved, and doing it in the right way.

You don't get to within feet of the winning line to then run back to fight your opposition.

I've spent the last few years communicating with councillors across all parties, engaging with the local community, including those against the stadium, and supporting OUSP and OxVox in any and every way I can. It has been frustrating and I've had to bite my tongue on numerous occasions. But we are WINNING.

Forget the likes of Middleton and others. They thrive on playing the victim. But your tone is the sort of thing that genuinely concerned locals worry about and really isn't helpful.
 
OK, here's my reply to Middleton:

Ian
I'll tell you how close I was to it, I was one of the four man new stadium team. That was a team that also explored every possibility, and every feasibility, of staying at The Kassam Stadium before embarking on our long search for a possible new home.

I could go into immense detail about who said what to whom, who wrote what to whom, and in what order, but quite frankly a) I don't need to: b) It doesn't belong on an Internet forum: c) You would choose not to believe me anyway: d) It doesn't have any material effect of the planning decision anyway, as you should know.

You are showing yourself to be the anti stadium, at any cost, person that we all knew you were from the beginning, but further to that you're showing yourself to be a very bad, ungracious and desperate loser.
 
I hadn't realised he'd replied to my post. I had been checking, expecting something from the man who likes the last say, but nothing until this.

I will have a read of it properly and reply.

I doubt he will respond he's gutless.
he won't believe any of it because he does not believe anything that has been said by anyone for the stadium.
he thinks he knows everything and everyone else is wrong
 
IM says that it's unusual for a Force Majeure clause to contain a timescale for the event.

Can you imagine a shrewd businessman like FK getting tied into an open ended suspension of contract obligations (ie rent) without a backstop?

Sorry Ian, it's a very common clause and for most businesses' would be likely to be 60 or 90 days - we probably only got a year as our operational time frame is the football season.

FM is there to allow both parties a breathing space to negotiate, manage and mitigate the effects of disruptive events - FK's response to that was pretty emphatic.....
