Fingers crossed its good news.. Surely the club wouldn't announce negative news at this delicate stage of the season....

Grimsby Town launch bid to attract investment to plug 'funding gap' in new stadium project

Grimsby Town have launched their bid to find new investment to help make their new stadium dream a reality.

A press conference at Blundell Park this afternoon saw director Stephen Marley outline plans to attract backers to get behind the plans for a community stadium off Peaks Parkway.

He told the media that he was heading up a working group to attract investment and will report back in three months.

He said there was a "funding gap" within the £22 million plans and added that the club was paying "due diligence" as a PLC to look for investment.

He said the gap could not be quantified, adding that it was an "ever moving target".

He insisted that the club had not "missed the boat" with regard to attracting a retailer as an enabling development but said housing could also fill that role.

A club statement said: "Expressions of interest are invited with all options considered, which could lead to a shift in overall control, on terms that may suit such an investor."

The club recently held consultation events with the public over proposals for the community stadium off Peaks Parkway.

See Thursday's Grimsby Telegraph for the full story and reaction.

Was hoping the press conference was going to be something a bit more interesting, i.e. that we have a developer on board but maybe that was being overly optimistic!

Unfortunately not. I would have been surprised and a bit perturbed had they not been looking for investors.
