They mention Manor close, but what about the Hassler estate (west way/Broadway) the other side of the flood plain? That estate floods continuously already! surely those residents need some reassurances here to? i hope the club has paid a few visits to this estate to see the 1-2 feet of water that regularly accumulates there.
but im sure they have, if ever there was a trusted developer, its Mr Bloom!

Suuuuuuuper ikea,

I take it this is on the land that was developed for a golf course that went phutt.
Wonder if there will be a bat collision event though

Brighton refused IKEA permission for a store at Hollingbury a few years ago. Fortunately, Lancing isn't in Brighton.

The traffic problem will never be resolved until they either create a bypass across the downs or make the A27 a dual carriageway from lyons farm onwards. That's where the bottleneck forms.
Traffic Jams are part of the IKEA experience though so don't expect anything different!

But.... It's not Brighton, and I think that's the point.
The Hotel was blocked in Brighton, and I feel the club realise that building anything of any significance (with a few notable exceptions) is hugely difficult in Brighton. Adur seem much more realistic and amenable.
As a resident of Lancing I very much welcome this announcement and wish all parties involved the best of luck, if this comes to fruition it will be a major boost to the area in jobs, road infrastructure and very much needed homes.
Mr Bloom you are a true Sussex philanthropist

There you have it! Instant do-it-yourself, fold-up seats for when safe standing comes into being at the Amex. Each fan will be issued with a mini screwdriver and spanner kit. A dedicated team will also be on hand to help assemble structure for those of you who are DIY-phobes (a small fee will be required). In addition each fan will be given a voucher for Ikea's Super Special Swedish Meatballs available at all the concourse kiosks.

Tut tut.. It's all about Alan Keys nowadays.
Are we building Ikea for them then?

I think it will be mixed. Some seem very pleased, others are horrified - the same people who were horrified at the thought of the training ground.
I think it will be great, and am looking forward to my garden NOT being flooded for a change!
I imagine they may turn their attention back to that when this is dealt with.
Not much, a developers profit as per Martin Perry in the article

'Developer profit' is normally 20% of the gross development value.
Or encourage people to use alternatives to their cars?
