Would love it if we could buy the freehold and do just that but planning/building would be horrendous and time consuming as we have seen and EM isn’t the patient type.
On the flip side there isnt an easy alternative site and the current location is good so it seems bonkers to relocate. It does seem though that the messages being put out by the club is that moving is preferred.
Yeah surely they've at least got to test the waters on this option. Although downside, can we really get more people in to that area? It's already pretty full, think you'd need to close the roads if there was another 20k people coming in. Plus we'd need to relocate for however long the process took which would mean multiple seasons playing somewhere else, which would mean playing from Notts ground or something more unpalatable like Leicester.
The site becoming available due to HS2 does seem like a pretty big opportunity if they can prove the transport works. Tbh if they could find a site next to the River Trent that would surely be sufficient, does that exist further out of town?!
