And a decent roof!Pompey1984+1 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 23, 2023 4:44 pm Your namesake looks like it is going to be much improved with the increased concourse alone being much needed!
A development and better use of the Roko footprint might be enough to bring the Academy under one roof and allow for the younger age groups to train evenings -without having to purchase additional land.Pompey1984+1 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2023 3:43 pm https://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/foot ... ns-4075189
Nothing imminent, or at least that they are prepared to disclose at the moment but there is obviously aspirations - a plan if you will.
Some excellent suggestions: what makes you think that the club are not considering these?Isley46 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 27, 2023 12:35 pmA development and better use of the Roko footprint might be enough to bring the Academy under one roof and allow for the younger age groups to train evenings -without having to purchase additional land.Pompey1984+1 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2023 3:43 pm https://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/foot ... ns-4075189

Get rid of the players parking area and relocate to the main Roko car park (fence / section off a secure parking area if required).
Get rid of the present dilapidated astro areas and tennis courts.
Rotate the U18 pitch 90degrees
Use the additional space to add in one or two further pitches side by side, same direction as the U18 rotated pitch (Or one all weather 4g with floodlights or dome) - shouldn't be any restriction to floodlights as they already exist).
That would show proper statement of intent.
WTF do they want the St Johns situation was well explained concerning the massive environmental issues do they not recall the goose habitat issues which blocked the stadium years ago

Do they not look at the account information showing the additional investment etc
Bunch of merchant bankers

The Trust undertook a detailed analysis of the stadium expansion, which resulted in a 30 page report. The cost of rotation compared to extending as is was about £4m difference if I recall correctly. Something like £44m vs £48m. Here is the link to said report...Pompey55 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 30, 2023 3:48 pmWTF do they want the St Johns situation was well explained concerning the massive environmental issues do they not recall the goose habitat issues which blocked the stadium years ago

The club has plans than just building a football stadium - the accounts showed a jump, due to the health club at Roko a hotel and other stuff brings in more money again - plus the costs in that document were indicative and talk about the need for land etc.. etc.. etc..Claygate wrote: ↑Thu Mar 30, 2023 4:51 pmThe Trust undertook a detailed analysis of the stadium expansion, which resulted in a 30 page report.
