I think they should accept it and relocate if they are being provided all the standard facilities they had there. <a href="http://www.easyparkinggatwick.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">gatwick chauffeur parking</a>carlagracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00662091021960640076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650332.post-62665416384034634782014-02-08T18:12:09.154+00:002014-02-08T18:12:09.154+00:00Not sure my position is quite the same as yours.

I'm not sure that this is true.<br /><br />What Millwall plc want is for the Council to sell the land to them so that they can develop it, and there is nothing in their plans to suggest that they would be offering any more genuinely affordable housing or community facilities than Renewal.<br /><br />I do think that the future of the club could be at risk longer term as I say in the post, but in my view the threat could be more from the club's owners/shareholders than from the Council. That's because of the way football clubs are run - they don't belong to fans or the community but to whoever has money to buy them, and those who buy them can also sell their assets if it suits them and they can get away with it.<br /><br />If the Millwall owners were to get the land and redevelop it, who's to say it would be for the long term interests of football or the community? It could just be a stepping stone to selling the leasehold and moving the ground - which in my view could only be to outer London or out of London, as places like Bermondsey and Greenwich peninsula would be too expensive now..https://www.blogger.com/profile/17026835814805695527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650332.post-70641872184005649012014-02-08T14:46:25.037+00:002014-02-08T14:46:25.037+00:00Position of Lewisham People Before Profit, is that...Position of Lewisham People Before Profit, is that we oppose the sale of Our Community land to boost the profits of any company, in this Case Millwall. We want the land retained, More open community consultation and totally oppose the developers affordable housing percentage which in this case is just 5%. New Cross is a key target ward for People Before Profit in May's local Election with well known local candidates with years of service to local residents. In May voters can vote for Labour career politicians who for far to long have put the interests of the developers before Community or PB4P who will and have a proud record of putting, People, Community and Environment first. We only have to wait until May 22 to see what voters think.Ray Barron Woolfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05867263353270228670noreply@blogger.com
