Bit out of date as the owners are now known and they have said they will try and help NV out...though I'm not sure what that means!

It was on the BBC news wesite only this morning so unless the BBC are very slow, its quite recent.

Looks like another case of land for houses for immigrants, yet again !

 

You can bet someone is gonna' make a fortune !

It's got nothing to do with immigration. What a strange thing to suggest!

The ground has been bought by the company next door (Thor) so it can expand.

 

There's a weird case going on in Norfolk right now. Cromer Town were bequeathed their ground in 1922 but there was a strange clause included saying it must be given back to the town 21 years after the death of the last of King Edward VII's grandchildren. That was thought to be King Olav of Norway who died 21 years ago Tuesday so the council are now saying they want the ground but lawyers are arguing that the 7th Earl of Harewood had been conceived but not born when the ground was bequeathed so he should be the person who's death decides when the ground is given back. He only died last year so the club may have 20 years to go.

I meant some of the detail was out of date. The story itself broke a couple of days ago.
