There's been plenty of discussion, Cotty. See my post in the topic below. Also if you are a member, plenty of discussion on the Members Forum on the subject and our search for a piece of land for a new community facility.

Although I am not a member, I know there has been a lot of discussion about this. I am not suggesting that we should ever want to move back there. All I was pointing out is that it is now officially posted on East Northamptonshire Council's planning applications website and is not just speculation.

Yes we were aware. In fact it is only an Outline Planning Application with no further detail than that included in the display at the Huxlow School back in the Autumn.Cotty wrote: All I was pointing out is that it is now officially posted on East Northamptonshire Council's planning applications website and is not just speculation.
Copy of the application here for anyone interested:-

Re: Nene Park redevelopment
Having read the "football strategy" I can see them going down the 'Goals or PowerLeague' root and try to attract a third party who would run the football part without any recall to the developer.

The football strategy us there as an appeasement. It's no use to man nor beast
Re: Nene Park redevelopment
Thanks Cotty, saw something about it on the Telegraphs webpage. No surprise but very sad nonetheless. How are you keeping? SS

Thanks, Lee. Is your membership application in the post? Are you going to nip round and polish a few seats -to Helen's exacting standards - before they knock it down?
