I'm feeling we've lost momentum, from the politicians who chose to support the Stadium they've not seen a positive impact, they've been asking "where the Oxford United fans were, we banked on you and you didn't come out" - Political circles say we just didn't turn up, rather than chose to vote for others.
What it will do is give the antis a stronger voice and its dampened our voice.
Will it stop the stadium, probably not. I've gone from 98% sure we're getting a Stadium to about 60%
Its a big shift and yes, I have to question, if we had mobilized better vs Stevenage, the clubs issues may have gathered more importance..
So, Problems - Green Vote in Kidlington, will be seen as Anti-Stadium, it will be focused on and built up to push against us.
Opportunities, the LibDems, we now call a truce from the baiting and see which side of the fence they come down on, super important to keep on at them.
if this stadium does hit difficulties and at the General Election, people vote LibDem in that ward, without a guarantee of support from Calum Miller and we didn't mobilise...well we didnt want it that much.
Sadly this stuff doesn't win itself sat on the sofa, hoping someone else will do the work
Tough to take and frankly feel like giving up the effort where its not made a jot of difference but it all be new tomorrow I'm sure....
