Sorry Gimps you are wrong on many levels, Fact: Nothing as been tried over the years to regenerate Freemo in fact it as been deliberately left to rot, Freshney place as been given preference for years.
Freemo CAN rise from the ashes and is doing, a Football stadium/retail development would be a stunning solution to that end of the street.
Thousands of pounds as been wasted on Freshney place.
Freemo is starting to improve more money and development SHOULD be encouraged if that includes a community site so be it.
I am sure grants are available to rejuvenate inner city/town areas.

They've tried allsorts over the years to regenerate Freemo, it's just been a total waste.
Freemo will never rise from the ashes and even a football ground wouldn't make a difference.
Not one penny more should be wasted on that dump of an area
They've tried nothing over the years is the reality,that area is in the bottom 1% of poverty stricken areas in the country and as been for yonks. |

Lost cause yes, my view too unfortunately I'd register support and take a house on new estate next to Peaks Parkway (PP) if loyal Town fans got a discount/help to buy  |

Excellent points for me about the redistribution of spending. I can't agree about the potential for job creation. We don't know the nature of the investment yet but if it is retail and we get some concrete plans there is plenty of evidence around the country that developments attract other retailers anxious for a slice of the pie. Pub and retail food companies are always looking for opportunities to sell a few more pints/pies. It's not my scene particularly but there is no doubt that it creates jobs.
As for relocating Lincoln cathedral (LMAO)....the example hardly mirrors the situation at B.P. When Lincoln cathedral starts to fall down people from all over the place throw money at the repairs. Once B.P.is recognised as a major site of worship the C of E might cough up. Until then we are reliant on St. John..
Slightly tongue in cheek reference to the big church on the hill. But it was meant as a comment about a little difficulty in getting there not putting people off if the overall experience is worthwhile. There will be traffic congestion if it's a town centre site but it won't be insufferable. Pubs and shops are closing left right and centre. And I'm not sure there's such a big unmet demand in NELincs for more eateries, that will persuade people to spend spare cash that they would otherwise have saved. If there are better facilities in a town, then that increases the chances of attracting people (and companies) to relocate but it's quite a step from having a new football ground to growing as an economy. Overall though, the case will be strengthened by some hard numbers. |

Beechwood Farm ( ? ) seems to be doing ok on the Europarc and you can't get much more out of town and still be within the developed part of NE Lincs. |

Do you mean everywhere else is so busy that people trek all the way out there for a skate and chips or whatever, or is it a real cheffy place that can only be bettered if it was in close proximity to a new football ground? |

I was answering a question about questioning an unmet demand in the Grimsby area for eateries and using an example that people will come to one that is not in a presently developed area. Having a place to eat in close proximity to a new ground or even as part of the development will surely benefit the whole project. |
