I definitely think that the application could and should have been dealt with better. It just seems a bit amateurish on certain aspects, but some of what the No campaigners have said it pathetic. I'd love to see them get sued by the club for their misuse of the club mascots.
anyway, back on track.
The club are paying the price for appointing architects that are not up to the job and probably having a weak PM imo. Applications of this ilk should be watertight from the outset, much like ours was for the AFC Wimbledon scheme, especially given that it is essentially on a shit bit of land. We made sure that all the questions, in particular the transport question (which is completely valid) had viable answers to. I'd hope that this would be in hand but it should have been in hand for the application. The council may hold the club to the provision of the shuttle buses as part of any approval, it's certainly what the councils do down here, so i'd presume there was similar powers available to them in Scotland. In the case of AFC Wimbledon, the only real objections came from the members of the dog track who didn't want to see their home of dog racing removed. And still that is in an urban environment.
The Nayers do always seem to conveniently forget that there is a new dual carriageway being built...wonder why that is.
I genuinely have no idea how the council are going to go on this one. Id love to stay at Pittodrie but I just can't see how it is possible, least of all to the size we require.
