Thats right.

I suppose that's just keeping their options open. Financially a bespoke stadium might make most sense in the long run, particularly if our fortunes improve. Im not sure what the corporate facilities are like at the Racecourse? Its severely lacking in parking and good vehicular access too. That said if the chance to own the ground comes up and the numbers work then you've got one decent modern stand, and a financial commitment from WAG to assist in redeveloping the kop. I think if it was viable most people would want to stay.
