We're never too old to be stupid, Cashy. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

ASCT are hoping to expand the Sports Hub!

Although technically separate entities...This is great potential to raise the profile of ASFC and get more kids supporting ASFC for future generations!

Fully agree that this is great news for the families of Accrington. With state of the art facilities for all ages to use.:alright:
However, be prepared for more opposition from those who want to continue to use Higham’s as a dog toilet!:ooh:

The Trust did absolutely brilliantly to attract the funding and grants that they did to enable the first stage to be build but surely that sort of money won't be there again this time round as other projects that haven't received any cash yet would in reality be prioritised and clearly as we recover from the pandemic cash will be a lot tighter.

Maybe given the current poor rate of interest if the Trust are confident of their financial model ie that the new facilities will create strong income streams then a bond issue could be the answer as surely there must be high net value people just looking for somewhere safe to park their cash for 10 years that would give them a better return than they are currently getting.

But i.m sure the trust will have this in mind and given it serious thought because without the cash being there the whole thing is just a pipe dream.
