I was thinking last night, on my drive back to the North East, that I remembered there was mention of a phase 2.

I know last night was a lot to take in with the new surroundings, but I just wondered if anyone could remember what it involved and when it fits into the grand scheme of things.

I remember there being the hotel and fast food restaurant being granted planning permission out front, but that's all I could muster among the cobwebs!!!

There is the land either side of Christie Way, which I'd guess the club could develop or sell as land with outline planning permission. I'm sure the club wanted to get the opening and a bit of bedding doen out of the way before making a decision.

What's more intriguing is what will happen to the pocket of land between the railway line and the club's land. To develop it would mean getting access via the club's land. Another opportunity potentially?

you could also in time build a small train station there aswell, for football specials etc

I think the worldwide slump will have put things on hold, but a major fast food outlet will probably appear at some point, and maybe a diy store

The William Mitchell had a big board out saying "last pub before the football ground"

The Park Hotel looked busy on Tuesday too and so was the Takeaway on the opposite corner.

The Ground is helping with the regeneration of the West End

good


without sounding negative, I would have my dinner there every saturday if they could match the toby, I would put a bit behind the bar, and give my son money for stuff

I am buying a season ticket anyway, but where we eat and drink beforehand is up to the club

No, I think it is up to you. If you choose mash get Smash!

Having done both at about $20 difference I know which I got the most excitement out of
