I had to go to West London to sort out a personal matter and went passed Brentfords new ground. They already have the steelwork up for the main stand and the opposite stand so I expect them to move in during the summer. when you think about it, is it easier to find a site in London, or Bristol? Yet another club leaving us behind

As soon as we get an owner to put in £100m like matthew benham has at brentford we will be just like them. When this takeover happens before the end of this month we will be well on our way.

No, there is no car parking, but 2 minutes from Kew Bridge railway station, and 2 minutes walk from Chiswick roundabout. There is no car parking at their old ground as it is all controlled parking zones in Brentford and west Ealing

No, there is no car parking, but 2 minutes from Kew Bridge railway station, and 2 minutes walk from Chiswick roundabout. There is no car parking at their old ground as it is all controlled parking zones in Brentford and west Ealing That sort of answers part of the question, easiest for new stadiums London or Bristol? Brentford’s new ground doesn’t need to consider much car parking, it’s got the tube, in answer to the tube Bristol merely offers up traffic jams and mind blowing snarl ups whenever there’s a shunt somewhere in the city the whole thing comes to standstill. Bumper to bumper down fishponds road? Lorry on Cumberland basin shed couple gas canisters five hours ago. Around it’s two football stadia and cricket ground Bristol has no parking, the houses went up before the age of Motor cars. Buses can’t move in it, bus lanes too intermittent, they just mooch down them to the next hold up. Nothing can move in it. Even if God walked the earth and leaped on a 73 across town, he wouldn’t be moving in a mysterious way he would be barely moving at all. I’m not even convinced if we were closer to rail station it would make a heck of a difference? Part of the old UWE plan was car parking equivalent to best in EFL? IMO that’s not part of any UWE stadium now as the car parking has disappeared under student accommodation, uni faculties like an international centre that looks like UN HQ, housing, an OAP retirement “village” that resembles something from Mega City One rather than something from the Archers. That car park space that was part of UWE plan is now gone. If you need to be somewhere tomorrow morning you should have set off half hour ago.
