Game On 1,117 Posted February 13, 2016 So if the Bees have to ground share with Leicester for example next year, how will that work with a fixed race night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ovalfan 14 Posted February 13, 2016 I just dont understand how they are so confident they will be building on brandon. No application has been put in yet and may not get agreed? For sure its very hard to get permission for anything in this area. Even a small development over the road at garden centre was refused? And what happens if planning for houses is refused? Surely permission would be needed to just demolish the current site. Are the hangers not protected in some way. And the proposed new build being an eco site sounds like it would push up costs. Cant see those being met. If sandhu wanted return on investment by selling brandon why put money in a new build that would see him long gone from this world before it started to make profit. Hope the bees and stox find a way to keep going but im not hopeful from what ive read so far. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless it is listed (which is why that became an issue at Oxford) demolition does not require planning permission. The problem for any property developer is that as you point out considerably smaller developments have been turned down because of lack of road infrastructure. My guess is that any prospective developers will get permission only when they provide a large contribution towards upgrading the road network. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,820 Posted February 13, 2016 Track share will not work just ask the Cradley promotion It works perfectly. Obviously in the short to mid term. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Demolition does not require planning but it needs permission from the council to carry it out also the stands at Coventry are mainly asbestos by the look of them this can cause problems as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted February 14, 2016 One for the Bees promotion, was we asked to compete in the World Speedway League event in Berlin? The reason I ask is we were losing finalists in 2014 and Kings Lynn got the spot for finishing 2nd yet in 2015 we finished 2nd but Belle Vue got the spot? Wasn't this pushed forward by Matt Ford and now doesn't even want to compete in it? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
