Ground Share - Town Revolution

[thedon1969]

It's about time someone grew a pair and made this a real possibility.

It's the perfect opportunity with the Rugby doing well pushing promotion and us seeking Football league.

The town would grow grow grow ......

I think we should sign wayne curtis

Ah,rito, cos the Rugby are doing well we should 'groundshare'.
Funny that, cos I was only last night saying to my mate that when the Rugby finally get promotion and they only just manage to win a handful of games in the league above and come rite back down again,Thats, when the usual shouts of 'Lets Groundshare' start.

What for?

[BAFC_Lewis]

The rugby are gonna die soon , got no money

[The Real Slim Azza]

Barrow will never have a new ground

[mall]

we dont want a new ground.all we want is new floodlights and a lid on H st end.

I've always been in favour of a Proper Built new stadium on a new site with surrounding bars, restaurants & shops etc, A solid built stadium built to last not a modern souless lego affair, Built with the future in mind with everything both clubs need, Gyms, Treatment, Bars & Food outlets, Club Shops, Training facilities etc

Never going to happen though as the town is too inward looking to take the leap of faith required.

There is not a big enough population in the catchment area to make a new ground with shops, gym etc economically viable

100 an odd thousand not enough?

It's taking long enough to get these done.
Plus any expansion will cost too much.
Does not matter how big the population is there is not enough money in the local economy to be spent.

Whole of Furness, including Ulverston, comes to a combined population of 88 thousand.

No

Perfectly well reasoned counter point with expanding points which prove your statement correct.

Give yourself a goldfish.
