Couldn’t the club or new owners do this??
Why should supporters pay if they don’t own the club?
It’s like owning a pub on lease , spending money of your own doing it up and then it all reverts to the owners when the lease is up.
Spending money on something you don’t actually own is never sensible in my experience.
A nice idea but I’m out.
I understand why you say that but I, (and hopefully more and more fans) feel that it is time for us (the fans) to have a bigger say in our football club.
Sixfields has basically stayed the same in 25 years despite the two recent owners saying redevelopment must happen. (we all know why they say that
)
The council have a massive part to play, look around the country and almost every football club development involves their local council to some degree, some to the tune of tens of millions.
Our situation is that our owners want to sell the 22 acres of council land behind the East stand to create funds to complete a "basic" East stand.
So out of a deal worth approx £20m, NTFC benefit is that the East stand is completed by Buckingham (questions will be asked about that deal and why would Buckingham get involved with NTFC again ?) worth a max of £3m.
We are scheduled to even lose half of the running track, putting warehouses up to the boundary to potentially tower over and hem in the East stand.
It is the council that create that value, yes KT/DB have put into the books of NTFC, but as they own the football club, at the moment to me, there is no difference.
KT has not produced any plans or given myself or others, any confidence with his past actions, that any extra funds would benefit us exponentially.
