Nice one. Certainly interesting location if true. Is the site big enough to hold a decent size stadium?

Assuming you would need some sort of commercial build to help the funding of the stadium you would need to take a lot of the land around the fruit market, on its own it is way too small. Residential build would need change of use, can't see it being a very attractive site for a hotel or retail park. Like most things down in what used to be called The Marsh, this smells a bit fishy. Just about north of the river but also perilously close to bandit country just over the way.

Not 100% that's up to scale. The Mem pitch is 101m x 68m Here are 2 images that would give it better scale (also not confirming the OP) Attachment Deleted

That's tidy. There's a stadium there already, look.

To clarify:
The 1st image is the rough size of land, with a pitch in the middle. If you put the pitch in the centre, you'd have about 42m one side and 45m the other side. More than enough room.
The 2nd image is not the Mem, it's the Mem pitch drawn randomly. Anyone can do this, go onto google maps of the location and measure 101m x 68m

i have to say the location is not bad. The stench from Abacus and Macarthy waste is strong, especially in the summer. What will our new nickname be? The Tip Heads? The Refuse Boys?

This was mentioned on OTIB back on 28th March and our " I wish this takeover" thread. So you never know there could be something going on.

The Marsh Gas.. marsh gas noun methane, especially as generated by decaying matter in marshes. For those who don't know, this site is located within "The Marsh" an area of St Philips entirely surrounded by water.

One of my first holiday jobs as a lad was working shifts on that site when it was a BRS parcel depot. Had to walk past the old 'glue factory', never known a stench like it. Easy walk for away fans coming into Temple Meads, and the cafe on the Paintworks could benefit. Thunderbolt could become a home fans pub! Short walk to Avon Meads and Showcase cinemas. Don't believe it for one moment though!

We did put an offer in but I’ve heard through the grape vine it’s now gone pear shaped 'you told that joke twice' (Banksy reference)
