Fruit Market OFF - Club redeveloping Mem instead.

It felt big because Wael is mostly non-committal and this felt like he was finally nailing his colours to a project!! Not interested in the politics it only makes for a more miserable experience supporting the gas!!

Why would you need upper case for "breathing space"?
Wael / Dwane Sports have to say "something". They patently haven't got anything concrete to say. So saying something vague about a potential site buys them time from some of the supporters who really want "to believe". So IMHO it's an attempt to buy time with at least some of the support base.
Looking at both forums - seems like about 25% will be placated by this. 50% are ambivalent. 25% think it's a crock of bcfc82.
I make up statistics all the time. It's great. 

Agree with this. It ticks so many boxes from so many different angles.

The only complaints are likely to be from them down the road who don't seem to understand the difference between the Feeder Canal and the River Avon and from Uncle Steve who seems to think Bristol belongs solely to his sporting club empire with no room for anyone else.

Very much a mixed reaction. For me, i think its a great location.

1; whoever is investing in this, there primary concern will be a return, and how much revenue the venue will make. Surely a multi sports/entertainment centre, slap bang in the centre of a city the size of bristol, is much more attractive, and lucrative, than a stadium sat in a field on the outskirts?

2; transport links are good. A lot of posters are concerned about parking and lack of bus services etc. Yes, busses maybe poor now, but we arent moving in now!! This is surely going to be another 3/4 years minimum before a game is played there? That gives planners/rovers/council plenty of time to improve road layouts, establish schemes to make transport to and from as easy as possible.

3; i would imagine this is actually a fairly easy place to get pp. surely a stadium which will be actively encouraging the use of public transport would get huge support. Even the greens!! Taking away all the cars going into the mem every other week and putting everyone on busses and trains instead!

I would also suggest that a stadium is hugely important to the al qadi family. They will not make there money back as we are, but a brand new stadium changes the entire ball game for them

Well, he is Ironman.

So you think that a complete lack of communication between owners and supporters is a good thing? Hey ho. Each to their own.
They have openly admitted that communication in the past has been poor, and were working on improving it. Maybe you missed that bit.
And it's "Dwane" Sports, not "Dwayne". 

Didn't say it was a good thing. What I said was they don't need to tell us anything. Nothing. And thanks for picking me up on the spelling, much appreciated.

Didn't catch any one with your first attempt so had to post the same vague comment again? If you've got something to say about the project or those supposedly behind just say it FFS.
