Alakagom Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 The Scum owners are ambitious folks no doubt, from their perspective, even I'm certain the project will fail, they have to somehow win the city from us over 30-40 years and the only way to stand a chance is to build ultra premium stadium and facilities, whereas we seem more constrained by Villa park and its surroundings. Of course such grandiose plan is basically equivelent of Wrexham wanting to build 55k stadium in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart_75 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 It would be easier getting rid of asbestos or radioactive waste compared to that proppa knotweed stuff. Hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 11 hours ago, useless said: I don't know the exact timeline but there's definitely a Japanese Knotweed issue on the site, it might be that world already began on it, butI think takes a while to get rid, hence the comments of it taking a least another year. And I've seen their fans talking about those numbers, not Villa fans exaggerating The rules change all the time but last site I had with Japanese knotweed you had to excavate 1m in all directions and then it was classed as hazardous waste Can cost an absolute bastard fortune 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Tony Mowbray has resigned due to still needing time to recover from his health issues this season Leaves them up shit creek, but hopefully it's something he'll recover from and be back on a touchline somewhere when he's back to full health.

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Thought I’d put a link to the story on here because it’s quite difficult to scroll so far down the list of leagues and teams on the Skysports website to find them Quote https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/breaking-birmingham-tony-mowbray-manager-32822656 ‘Birmingham City confirm Tony Mowbray won't return as manager as hunt for new boss begins’ More seriously, from the little I know, I always thought Mowbray seemed like a decent man so I hope he makes a speedy recovery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
