Pretty sure that there would be a vote on a purpose built training facility if the sort of money talked about is involved and it impinged on financing the team. (This is something I'll bring up at the AGM.

Exactly why they let us think we were important enough to have a say as they knew what we would vote for. That said it was still a misleading vote, As soon as it was passed they released more information on how much financial strain we were now under as a result, quite why they didn't release that before hand is quite clear to me. More board room manipulation of the fans

Discussed by who? And deemed too expensive by who? Not the fanbase for sure although the fans were deemed important enough to decide on the Racecourse lease. Maybe some fans thought that Colliers was worth investing in rather than training on 9 acres amongst stray golf balls and dog muck. Rather than democracy and letting us have that vote they decided for us to make sure they got what they wanted.
