    By compulsory purchase order. Don’t want any profiteering by the land owners.

    If it was a new stadium they would keep SJP open. If its new stands then God knows.

    What I do know is some people will have to be relocated and just watch the tantrums start up when that happens.

    Not sure you will make the game on time as you always want to leave the Earl with 15mins before kickoff
