Which local Cllr. Only one attends matches that often. Step forward Cllr Collins.

David,I'd estimate the number of Bees fans who want to remain at Griffin Park at about 95% of the fanbase. I'd also estimate the same percentage of those fans who realise we need to move to a new stadium in order for the club to have any hope of becoming sustainable.Griffin Park is antiquated and has no corporate facilities. The end result is that the club is saddled with an asset only useable on 24 matchdays during the year and one which incurs significant losses. The new stadium will enable the provision of Matchday hospitality and non footballing revenue which the club couldn't possibly hope to generate at Griffin Park. It will be a sad day when we finally say goodbye to the old girl but a new home is vital to a sustainable long term future for the club.

Obviously this unnamed councillor is not a Brentford councillor. Or is this fiction, David? Still clutching at straws.

I understand from a local councillor that many local Brentford fans would prefer Brentford FC to remain in Griffin Park. It is a convenient ground for them and they like the atmosphere and the local pubs. In addition there is concern that ticket prices will increase considerably if the club moved to Lionel Road.

The average attendance is 6932 this season according to ESPN Reg.

My comment was tongue in cheek Reg and should be taken in context of what Sue claimed would happen to any nay sayers. I agree about the very large tower blocks planned but I don't share your fears about traffic congestion.If there are only 4,000 fans who will mostly walk to the ground once or twice every two weeks for 9 months, where will the congestion come from?
Keith Iddon ● 4477d
I agree the new ground should not be built. Apart from the rediculously huge building proposal and traffic congestion, where are the 20,000 fans going to come from when the average Griffin Park gate is around 4,000?

I never thought for one minute we live in a police state, there's always some fine old discussions going on on these Fora. I have never known anyone not to be able to express an opinion or disagree with any comment on any subject, what would be the point if the people who run them expected everyone to say the same thing? Bonkers.

I am shaking with fear so much that I can barely type..

With reference to the original poster, Keith, let's see whether you are 'reported' and what happens to you (if anything) as a result. Are you 'worried'?!
Anne England ● 4478d
The new ground should definitely not be built.
Anne it was good old English irony/sarcasm.Many people have posted very stridently against the new stadium and none have been banned for it.I believe you can complain to somebody about a post but I've never seen the need.The people who own/run Neighbournet do some kind of monitoring - there's a 'contact us' under 'about us' on the homepage.

Does 'having them for breakfast' mean the poster will be banned? Has anybody tried it? Otherwise, where is the 'proof'? Who runs/monitors these forums anyway? Does anybody know?
Anne, the proof presumably is that nobody has posted on this or the Chiswick website against the ground as the thought police will have them for breakfast.Then again....
Reported by whom? And wouldn't 'whoever runs this website' be looking at the website themselves and be alerted by such postings without somebody else having to report them? Why do you say this? What proof do you have? And if people have been reported, what has been the outcome?
Reported to whoever runs this website seems if we don't agree we get reported I thought forums were for putting points across
