I think its less controversial than is being made out. The club just wanted to make it clear that the actual final sale of the freehold is contingent on the planning permission being approved by RBC. Given it sounds like there's lots of clauses to stop us leaving that makes sense. Rather than some PR disaster if they don't make it clear and then we fail to get planning permission.
I guess it just depends on the planning permission now. The Rushcliffe area has a new MP too so that should help with the national mission atm. I think this is just such perfect timing as Pap says for us to max our leverage and get loads more approved than perhaps we'd have got a few years ago.
The combination of the bankrupt council, new govt and also a mission to get large infrastructure projects going is just such a good opportunity.
If this was an intentional strategy from the club to wait until the govt changed and time it perfectly then you could argue they've smashed it.
