Hot on the heels of slavetraders 82 getting permission to revamp gashton gate , Brentford will tomorrow find out if Hounslow council will give the go ahead for their proposed new stadium http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25189167Brenfords had an average attendance of 6302 last season so of course a 20000 seater stadium is needed While the posh have begun pulling down the Moy end ( visiting ) terrace Shame as that wasnt a bad end and another terrace bites the dust. 2500 seater stand going up in its place The £5million project involves the construction of an all-seater stand and a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education centre for community use.

Watch the Hounslow Council Planning Application Meeting live at 1930 tomorrow: www.hounslow.public-i.tv. I've just text messaged Adrian Durham's show to elicit a response re: the demolition.

Shame as that wasnt a bad end and another terrace bites the dust. 2500 seater stand going up in its place
That's barely bigger than the Town End, and almost certainly smaller than the terrace it will replace. Interesting.

It's a complete relocation Batch. Moving a mile away, pending the outcome of tomorrow's meeting. When/if they move in 2016 the pubs will doubtless either be bulldozed for housing or fold due to their staple income having evaporated.

Thanks. I know they have to progress, but it'll be a sad day too.

Staple income? Do you think any pub can really survive on a 1/4 share of the drinkers amongst a crowd of 6,000 for a few hours on 30 odd days a year?

Ok then, explain how there exists 4 pubs in such close proximity in a residential area, if not for the fact that they are all heavily patronised on match days.
