I'll go along with cautious hope. I just get the impression the club are not chomping at the bit to get started and im not sure why. They've gone through all the courts and done the red tape bit. They can now really start getting spades in ground etc but instead we've got Ferdinand saying we should be in by season after next without anything tangable to go on. This enviroment thing that keeps getting banded about is just a normal process that they have to carry out yet it seems to be the excuse why diggers arent in yet.
Just lots of talk still. Im not blaming anyone at the club but do question the multi billionares motives and their commitment to the course. |
"but instead we've got Ferdinand saying we should be in by season after next"
That's the crux of it, PunteR, I agree. If we're in by then I would consider it very quick. If, however, we're only stripping topsoil in eighteen months I would consider that to be slow.
I'm not worried about the ecology etc taking time. It does. And it can only be done when the owners/previous owners complete all the paperwork, get all the permits and grant all the permissions. For most of my 30+ years doing surveying I've worked in civil engineering and all of those projects had massive lead-in times, so this is not unusual and doesn't worry me.
By the way, it's only when we strip the topsoil that the next concern can be addressed - archaeology. I'm sure SWF have a spare Shakespearean theatre or two ready to go. |  |

What did farmer Warren bury on his farm.??????? |
A woolly mammoth.. just beside the later Roman fort, later the site of a Viking burial also the site of dark age executions with heads on polls and encrusted now-extinct bird's shite on their heads.
DNA can be extracted from the encrusted bird-shite when they dig it up.
It's all in SWF new campaign booklet ... #dontyaknow [Post edited 25 Feb 2020 10:20]

Couldnt paperwork etc been sorted in conjunction with the court process?. Especially considering the previous owners had already agreed that QPR could move in.? Surely Ealing council could have carried out enviroment checks or even closed off areas to be inspected.?
Frustrating all delays have been caused by a small group of alleged Brentford fans. |  |

I don't think it can, at least not all of it. The court procedures held up planning, without planning Rangers couldn't have applied for permits as they had no authority etc etc | |

I am sure we were told back in the day that all preparatory checks etc were proceeding so we could crack on as soon as we got the green light legally then the skylarks arrived

And I think there's some you can do, but some will have to run their course only once the objections are cleared. There's insurance issues for a start. | |

If it helps speed things up , I played football there regularly 20 years ago and can confirm there was asbestos !
That should shave a couple of months off the waiting process |  | | |

Not to give out but I think the reaction to this article shows the weariness with WF's many setbacks.
Ferdinand has said that we are working on it at present, that we will be turning the sod soon and might even be saying that we will be in by Aug '21. And yet half of the posts are cautious or disbelieving.
I found that surprising at first, but once I thought about the historical context and the many disappointments to date, then such caution makes complete sense.
Still, though, the next bit of news was always going to be either positive or else one that confirmed the abandonment of the project. And we got the former.
Time to hope, maybe. Albeit cautious hope. |
Hate to contradict you BM but I think the reaction on here is typical of this board, some will find negatives/stick to their negative view whatever the club says and then if you actually point out some facts or hush my mouth support the club, you just get abuse back. |  | | |

I agree with that, PP.
It's just that it's as humans we're more inclined to be sceptical when we've already seen setbacks.
I remain cautiously optimistic about WF, but I can see why many are weary of it all. | |

Thanks, I stand corrected.
I normally try to be optimistic. the owners and management have made Warren Farm a cornerstone for the future development of the club so i really want to see it happen.
Trouble is there has been so much bullcrap over the years that I get sceptical when looking for clarity and getting very little
I do tend to trust Hoos and Les generally so fingers crossed this eventually happens | | | |

Absolutely! I don't know who is in charge of PR at QPR but that Kilburn Times article and the thought - or lack of it - behind it is shocking. I was a PR Manager until recently and I would be thoroughly embarrassed to be in any way involved with an article or announcement like that.
Look, I have leapt to the owners' defence time and again but they are fully aware that fans are desperate - desperate - to know what is going on with our oft-trumpeted infrastructure projects. There have been umpteen tweets, to the club and every senior employee at Rangers, asking for a progress update or bemoaning the lack of one.
Whether WF is Les' responsibility or not, the very least the club - well, the board, to be precise - should have done prior to the interview was to give him a short, clear and unambiguous statement on what the status of the project is. It's called communicating in a professional manner. If such a statement could not be produced in time, our head of communications should have postponed the interview.
Instead, they have given us a blue and white hooped Rosetta stone. It's poor and not only will the content they have provided further rile our weary fans, so will the unprofessional way in which they have delivered it.
Opportunity missed.
