How can completely redesigning the stadium and submitting a whole new planning application be small?
It isn't (should have made myself clearer).
My point was how can the argus be trusted... they have been wrong or over-reacted to misinformation far too many times to be trusted.
I would prefer to hear it from a better source.

Whatever way you slice it , its big news. LDC are dusting off their objection papers as we speak no doubt. I can guarantee Baker with be spouting off on the local media before the suns gone down.

As long as it gets built I couldn't give a shit if it looks like a giant spaceship has landed overnight!
To be fair that was 11/07, the economic climate has got hugely worse since then.

Further proof that Norman Baker is a complete and utter wanker though:-
Quote 1 from the Argus:-
"Plans for offices under the East Stand to be let to businesses replaced with more teaching space for City College"
Quote 2 from the Argus:-
Lewes MP Norman Baker, who also opposed the stadium, said: “There was always a fear among my constituents that the club would be unable to fund the scheme and would have to come back for more commercial space to sell. That now appears to be the case."
Which appears to be the exact OPPOSITE; i.e. its now less business space and more for the college. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good quote will you Baker!!
Mind you, I still think we are pretty much buggered for at least another 10 years now!!
God, I'm depressed

I'm not normally a pessimistic person but i'm starting to have serious doubt's that the club can actually get this stadium built.

In this case the facts seem fairly clear, enough to speak for themselves.
Also the writer is a fan, if that makes any difference.
I believe thats his join date, and the article/quote is in fact from the end of July this year.
Fair enough... I am now officially worried then!
Where is Lord Bracknall (sp?) when you need him!?
Exactly. We've been given permission for the stadium in its original form. Surely this new, huge design requires new permission, and allows all the old objectors to come out of the woodwork again?
I would think so but you can bet they will be scanning this thread so I do not want to say anything that will plan into their hands. I think it is best to lay low until we know exactly what the f*** is going on.

So, where's the hotel going to be built then ?
I`m sure the club`s appeasers will be on here within the next couple of hours telling us that they are privvy to certain information and that we must not listen to the scaremongerers and start panicking.
Meanwhile.................. permission to panic, Capt Mainwaring.
