New Stadium The Triangle - Planning (S106 Agreed)

And is the 24th September a confirmed date, and if so, could it change to an earlier or god forbid a later date?

Yes, it’s confirmed. Unfortunately, though, I’ve now heard the hearing has been moved back.



Apparently the court has introduced a new administrative procedure whereby every time somebody asks “is 24th September definitely confirmed?” despite having already asked it several times and received exactly the same answer, the hearing is automatically delayed by another 48 hours.
This is apparently to allow court staff sufficient time to re-check the diary, phone the judge, contact all the parties, consult the King’s Bench Division listing office and make absolutely certain that, in the three minutes since the question was last asked, the entire judicial system hasn’t secretly rearranged itself.
So at the current rate, 24th September has become 2nd October. Another couple of repetitions and we’ll be looking at Christmas.

Oh dear. Lesson 1 of the forum: There will always be a number of posters who believe anything that is posted as fact. Ergo, right now, there are several very irate forumites who, having wet themselves, are now hammering away on their keyboards demanding to know how it can be that the hearing has been delayed.



Still, should provide a little light relief! 😁

Sorry Tim!

@Billyox the last time I asked I vaguely remember you saying you didn’t know as this was a date FoSB had communicated, but I maybe wrong!

You don’t have to be a condescending, I mean, the amount of f*****g times a number of fans have queried the embargo rules with you explaining the same thing with respect has been in the 100s if not 1000s

You may live your life for this thread which I and others appreciate, but some of us have other lives and may miss the odd message or forget what was said previousl or read something that contradicts what’s been said before.

Don’t f*****g answer if it offends you.

Fair enough. I won’t bother then.
I’ll leave the thread to people who apparently want every question answered repeatedly, politely and without so much as a hint of sarcasm, no matter how many times the same thing has already been covered.
I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of time digging through court documents, planning papers, EFL rules and all the rest, then explaining it in plain English for people on here. Clearly the correct response to that is to be told I “live my life for this thread” because I made one sarcastic comment.
So no problem. Someone else can do the searching, checking, reading and explaining from now on.
I’m sure the answers will magically appear by themselves.

You did the same to me on another question Billy, so you know what you’re doing and I found this response condescending!

My question/query wasn’t directed at you, it was just a general question seeking clarification, if my question(s) offends you, then please don’t feel the need to answer it.

Like I said, we really appreciate what you’ve done re; this thread which I’ve said many times, but please don’t act like the kid who takes the ball to park, but when they feel challenged they decide to go home with the ball hoping everyone begs them to stay etc!

This is genuine. I’ve spiralled on the stadium a few times and got panicked and your responses and analysis has genuinely calmed me. Even if you end up not doing it anymore it is genuinely appreciated what you have done.

Come on Billy.
Most of us really appreciate your efforts.
I am sure that other than the odd person or two, we hope you continue.

Totally uncalled for. Billy has spent hours and hours of his own time untangling all the legal rubbish surrounding this saga.

I never questioned Billy’s contribution, in fact, I’ve always thanked him for his amazing contributions, I just felt his condescending response was unnecessary to my generic query which wasn’t directed at him, so said if my query offended him then he didn’t need to respond (meaning he didn’t need to respond to me!)

So, I agree, it was uncalled for!

Maybe just maybe we’re all getting a little bit anxious because we now have the countdown to a date. Things always get a bit tetchy as I recall before every big moment.

This is definitely true. I know in theory it should go our way but the stakes are just so high. Really think I may struggle over the next 17 days.

The vote at CDC, the original JR meeting and now this the Oral meeting.
We all want the same thing, let’s just be civil to each other. Save our angst for the people who are putting us through this hell
FoSB if it wasn’t for those c***s this would be done and dusted.
They are the ones we should be berating and giving hell to.

Graham, appreciate your message, but I’m fine.

In fact, I’ve become pretty numb to the whole saga with everything going on at the club (light relief yesterday though), including the stadium situation, and as you know, that’s after 50+ years of supporting us!!

Just going through the motions! e.g. trying not to get too high when things go well or getting too low when they don’t. Trying being the optimal word!
