The Bristol City Council last night kicked out the planning application for the re-development of Ashton Gate and there is no doubt that Sainsbury's will now walk, leaving BCFC with no money for the new ground.
Politicians, what a bunch of narrow minded w*nkers. apparently they gave in to a local pressure group supporting the small shopping parade at Ashton Vale and voted against the advice of their officers. The 12 year old chairman of the Planning Committee (well that's what he looked like on the tele) said that this was a victory for democracy. Turning down £150m+ of inward investment, 400 jobs, some victory!
