Time for change. Northampton town doesn’t need land grabbing cdnl but they need ntfc.
But they need land grabbing Cildara according to you.

CDNL can not be trusted to deliver the smallest amount of redevelopment. its over 7 years since they 'suggested ' they would finish the East stand, which they failed miserably to do so...So any other offers by A.N Other needs to be courted as its probably going to be a whole lot better than what the present incumbents will deliver.
Let's not forget, because cdnl have mothballed our club for nearly 8 years, it doesn’t mean our clubs desperately needed infrastructure has been down graded, as we now need both East stand finished as of 8 years ago and the long awaited increase of capacity to enable proper trading while in league 1 has now become over due.
What we need is a lot more than cdnl could ever offer our club, so for that reason they need showing the door, preferably without 23 acres they certainly don't deserve..
Time for change. Northampton town doesn’t need land grabbing cdnl but they need ntfc.
Once again Dopey, please name the individuals or group that constitutes this change and are also going to finance this development. Otherwise it’s back to Beds in dreamland. I’m taking a wild guess it’s the latter, but it’s always polite to ask.

My understanding is that it's a moderated meeting? FSA facilitated I think
To achieve what exactly? Not that I’m against it or anything but I can’t see it being that productive given the current positions. Interesting that Andy has taken it on his own. The rumour I heard was that the last Trust board meeting was quite hostile and confrontational with some of the guest members there. Seems to have stirred things up a bit anyway. Either way if the final outcome of all this is that the board end up representing the broad spectrum of all member opinions that has to be a good thing, irrespective of how it occurs.

Beds with respect your reply totally sums up my concerns- although my question was what are the positives on the Trust’s bid - unfortunately like others in your camp the majority of the reply is as predicted what’s wrong with CDNL and the most telling part of the response is the alternative will “probably” be better. The current owners are of course not perfect but you and your cohort’s apparent hatred and interpretation of facts means the mission now is “anyone but CDNL” completely ignoring or more likely ignorant of the risks associated with this strategy. I would add that I have no doubt, said individuals passionately believe they are doing the right thing for the club and they may be right - however it’s clearly based on a narrow band of opinion and the strategy not open to the views or indeed advice from the broader fan base - who certainly will have opinions and may actually have more experience in such matters.

Have most if the other 91 clubs seen some improvements into their infrastructures and trading abilities over the past 20 years?... Yes they have, so to answer your question, I want to see some of what they have achieved in whatever way they achieved it. I don't want cdnl to mothballed our club another day more. Gareth.. get the broom cupboard ready, the natives are getting restless again.. Have we won any random awards this past week to again detract from the bigger picture? 😬

So yet again no names with the required cash on the hip then? Get the trophy cabinet ready as well Gareth, Beds has won us most boring irrelevant opinion by a supporter award. Well done mate, I’m that proud I’m filling up!

Beds - I know it's a challenge but if you can even attempt to answer these questions without mention of CDNL KT or DB I'll donate £50 to Northampton Hope Centre
My understanding is if the "possible" relationship will Cilldara (or another party) and the Trust reaches a positive conclusion then the Trust will retain the ACV land to do what they will with it and Cilldara (or another party) take the rest of the land so my questions are -
1) Who finances the building of the stand (& more worryingly) the likely running of the club - assuming a Goodwill type solution materialises the estimated revenue was £250k per year 2) Are you happy that Cilldara (or another party) enjoy the majority of the profits from the land deal with no documented benefit to the club 3) Could you offer an opinion on how negotiation for any land use with the lease holder will progress

Melbourne Cobbler, the exchanges at the last trust board meeting were described as " Healthy and Constructive" with the five visitors!

That’s not what I heard, but I wasn’t there so can’t form a first hand opinion.

That's the equivalent of asking me to name our first three signing of the summer! Of course I don't know who we'll sign but sign players we will, just like one day soon NTFC finally be shot of timewasters cdnl and get worthy owners in. Disclaimer..I don't enjoy everyday ripping Melbourne a brand new one, so please don't accuse me of bullying.
