The Council has a few potholes to fill and can’t even afford to do that. It’s not a Town Council either. I don’t think the residents of Killingholme eg would be too chuffed if their council tax was used to build a stadium they would never use.
It would appear we now have a landlord and tenant agreement where the landlord and tenant are effectively one and the same. Does the 999 year lease have anything written in to it protecting the club against any development/change of use by the present or any future landlord? Who knows. Maybe supporters who kept their shares should group together and ask to see the lease agreement. If it’s as simple as the chairman claims he should be only too happy to oblige.
