From reading that article I would presume if we can't move to the uwe, trash would fully support the redevelopment of the mem to ensure the site remains a sports ground ? I guarantee the moment we put in planning permission to redevelop the mem they will create another campaign group. just like they have down the cricket ground to stop them building the new floodlights they need to host test cricket. You bet. Unless I'm mistaken, Stephen Barrett, Committee Member of Horfield Residents Opposed to Stadium Expansion (ROSE) is the same Stephen Barrett, Director of TRASHorfield. C'mon, embrace change Stephen! Don't tar all ROSE members with the same brush. One Lady who was active in ROSE and suffered vile abuse and lies on the previous forum, has no issue whatsoever with Sainsbury's, in fact, she was glad that Rovers at last appeared to have a viable solution to getting a ground that was fit for purpose and which offered an opportunity for a progressive future. More than that, she is more than a little irritated by TRASH members who under the ROSE banner had campaigned against all of the problems that having a football club on your doorstep bring, and then suddenly became active in a group whose objective would result in the club remaining at the stadium. |

Some of the suggestions on here are just silly. I think these should be considered.
A small rehab centre for paedofiles and sex offenders
A centre for heroin addicts
An open prison for those that have committed semi serious crimes (manslaughter / rape ect)
All of these would be promoted by a free thinking liberal society, of which I believe Daneilla Horseraddish is one

Surely Henbury Gas should be able to confirm this from "his contacts" |

If we force the deal with Sainbury's thru; report a sighting of Great Crested Newts on the pitch. That way the ecoyobs presently down at Stapleton will arrive to entrench themselves, creating a rumpus for the Trash snobs (who like the Mayor wont be able to do f-all because they dont really know if they like swampy and his smelly friends or not) and it'll cost Sainsbury's a fortune in enviro charges.
Don't forget when you vote in May what a pig's ear the Greens have turned our biggest asset into.

Accepted. However, the point was raised that many involved with TRASH - who are now clinging to the Memorial as a perpetual sports ground argument - will likely object to any proposal that Rovers put forward to develop the Mem. I cited Stephen Barrett as a prominent member of both TRASH and ROSE as being a prime example of this behaviour. So to use your phrase, I am tarring Stephen Barrett with the broad brush of NIMBYism - I suspect he is not the only one. |

many involved with TRASH - who are now clinging to the Memorial as a perpetual sports ground argument - The problem with that is that they actually do have a point. The entire stadium was left as a memorial and the term used was ''in perpetuity'', that kind of means forever, not until it suits a supermarket or a football club to flatten it and build something different. |

Yes they certainly do have a point, go and read the inscription on the centre pillar between the gates that lead to the 'Memorial Ground', the clue is in the name. It matters not that the rugby club play there anymore but where is the money going to come from to provide a stadium fit for the 21st Century instead of the ramshackle stadium it now is which will provide a fitting tribute and long lasting memorial that honours the young men and women who have laid down their lives so that we have the freedom to discuss matters such as these on an internet forum.

The stadium did not exist. None of the stands date back that far. |

I have always been of the opinion that the memorial gates should go to the new stadium, as far as I am aware they were there to commemorate the local sporting members of society who lost their lives, where better than at a sporting venue and not a supermarket. |
