Twitter is a very hard place to judge reliable people, for every one or two good men there are a slew of pretenders grabbing the oppurtunity to gain followers. Social Media has unfortunately presented people with their very own soap box, why they do its is unkown.
I personally think the LFC_newsYNWA_ chap is talking bluster and piggybacking on rumours that have been flying around since the Ooeredoo sponsorship leak. My suspicions arose when he quoted the one and only @Indykaila stating he was "ever reliable".
The Trevor Gerrard chap seems much more reliable and has been carrying the story for a while, he seems more genuine in his approach and isn't in constant pursuit for followers. Interestingly he also mentioned when the ground was granted the "asset of the community" status, that it could be a very defining moment in the regeneration. For Henry to come out after that crucial moment sounding confident about finance suggests that the investors who are supposedly lined up are happy with the outcome and it wont prevent them moving forwards with their plans. Could well have been a sliding doors moment.
Anyway, the latest JWH statement has filled me with hope, its come completely out of the blue and he appears to be very confident about the finance, something which has been a bit of a taboo subject over the last few years. He didn't necessarily have to say anything and could have kept his powder dry without anyone noticing. Things, thankfully, after nearly twenty years, seem to be gathering pace.
It does seem for once that the owners are showing some balls and getting things done slowly but surely and with some care and consideration for the people in the area. the rumours that started in the 90's have blighted the area for a long time & H&G showed absolutely no consideration for the local people with their arrogant chutzpah, spade in the ground stuff whilst people still lived in the houses around the ground.
anyway, does anyone know anything about the next steps, when the houses are likely to be sorted, once they're bought how long then for planning permission, and obviously along with planning permission goes the redesigned stadium. any word on architects being lined up or the like?
