Nothing we don't know - but great to have a symphatic hearing from TalkSport.
What does it mean to Brighton ?
Mike Ward - quite upbeat. Mentioned bollocks rumours this morning
Falmer not ruled out. We need to convince Prescott other sites not viable.
If we can convince Prescott, then Falmer gets a go ahead.
Was asked about local objections. Replies they are based upon out of date ANOB status - bypass etc...
ANONB "is a joke", but opponents have clung on to it
Said that while both Inspectors have said no - Prescott believes there is still a case to be heard.
Is this a delaying tactic by Prescott ?
Could be, mentions labour conference. But Ward see's it as a genuine chance to reinforce the case.
We are still looking at 2/3 years, more expense, lawyers etc..
He thinks early new year for decision.
