On a vaguely similar theme, does anyone in the locality know what the status of the Mount Florida Bowling Club is? I know the developers wanted flats, but quite rightly the locals put up huge objections. Would be absolutely perfect for a couple of wee pitches for kids. Indoor facility for community use etc. as well. The greater likelihood, sadly, is either the developers getting their way or the land being left to overgrow for years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Sounds like season ticket sales are close to zero given the issue that fans don't know where they're playing next season. How then can they make signings with so little income coming in? I know your lad is funding a lot of this, but will he want to keep pushing away cash to fund something that seems so unsustainable at the moment? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Season ticket sales are not close to zero. They are zero, as they are not yet on sale. Presumably, the club will put them on sale once they reveal where we are playing next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First application for flats was rejected, I believe a second/revised application is being or has been submitted with a token amount of space for “community use”. So very slowly working its way through the council process. The community group are doing their best to oppose it and push for a proper community space. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that would be a great use for the land, however the upcoming takeover of the Glagow Club facility at Holyrood is where all the community stuff will be based.

GloriousHoops Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) I read a few pages back that there is a legal requirement for TWO practise events at Lesser before a safety certificate is issued. Any update/thoughts on this? A couple of pre-season friendlies? Bit late in the day for this level of brinkmanship. I'm guessing there must be a paying(?) crowd at these test events surely?

The decision makers may still be on holiday but still very poor from the club, no communication. Looks increasingly likely that we won’t be playing at Lesser next season I’m afraid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
