Considering we have, more than once, offered them far more than their business is worth, new premises and all that, i would hope that the club AND local council will now seek damages and compensation for the delays to the refurbishment of the area.
It's not only the stadium they are holding up, it's leaving the entire area as a wasteland, sitting in limbo. Once the work starts it'll bring so many things to the area, not to mention the potential jobs for both the building of and the running of, the entire project, that i feel that they have chosen to obstruct the entire thing, denying the area all of that.
Archway Steel should've accepted the bumper package they were offered instead of getting greedy.
In theory, i hate the idea of businesses being forced out by large corporations, but there's a huge difference between a Tesco's going up and an entire borough, the borough that has received less funding for improvements than virtually any other in London, getting a facelift and new facilities.
