That’s what the Hearn’s want. They’ll love it when we finally clear off and they can turn the whole site into housing.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2024 5:47 pmThat's another reason a new ground somewhere else in Waltham Forest would be desirable .However making it happen is another storyAdmin wrote: ↑Sat Aug 17, 2024 11:30 am1995 - Orient, albeit skint held the long Jease at nominal rent on its stadium.

I just hope we stay here long enough, rotting away in L1 or L2, that Bazza doesn’t live to see his grand plan come to fruition.

Re: Barry Hearn / Brentwood Town FC
He might move Brentwood there . Once we leave he will put a small square stadium there for boxing/darts, thus keeping the sporting caveat and build apartments on the rest. He'll make millions out of that, and i'm sure he will be gloating in the press again about his brilliant business acumen, whilst f*cking over a small community football club.Hoover Attack wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2024 9:56 pmThat’s what the Hearn’s want.

Re: Barry Hearn / Brentwood Town FC
You are looking back with rose tinted glasses and missing key factors. There was no money in football back then - and not the appetite for owning clubs either.Admin wrote: ↑Sat Aug 17, 2024 11:30 am1995 - Orient, albeit skint held the long Jease at nominal rent on its stadium.

Re: Barry Hearn / Brentwood Town FC
I've never liked Hearn, before he had any association with us, during, and after.
He doesn't do anything unless there's an earner in it for him
Brentwood beware
