28th March 2008, Latest News!!!!
We are delighted to report that another significant stage in our relocation plan was reached last night when outline planning consent was granted for the potential redevelopment of the Club's existing site at Milbourne Lane.
We will now seek to conclude negotiations with our Developer, Cube Real Estate, on the more detailed financial and practical aspects of the move.
Subject to this proving satisfactory to the Club within the terms of the Agreement which we concluded last summer, arrangements for the formal acquisition of the Oaken Lane Site will be completed and, shortly thereafter, the construction of our new facilities will begin.
More more details will follow.....
