So we are going to have our say on the new ground. The starting point should be to ask the question "what is wrong with Glanford Park"?
For me Glanford Park was never a League standard ground, Conference at best. So from a purely personal point of view my priorities would be :-
1. More on site car parking with a proper entry/egress system so that traffic can flow better, particularly after the game when everyone wants to be out asap. Instead of one big main car park split it up with options to come in from Scotter Road and the A181 (as I believe it is to be re-designated). GP is rather like Cadwell Park,all in and out of one entrance. Difficult to go into detail on parking solutions until we know where the ground is going to be.
2. Bigger pitch.
3. More leg room in seating areas. I'm only 5ft 8ins and still find it cramped in the Telegraph Stand.
4. Unobstructed view for everyone.
Can't comment on Bars or catering as I never use either.
