DeMontfortRam Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Just spotted this on a list of raised issues being talked about in an upcoming Erawash Borough planning meeting... On the agenda is the extension of Moor Farm, which has been reccomended for approval by the local council. Here's the blueprint of the planshttp://www2.erewash.gov.uk/moderngov/documents/s17071/Item%205%20ERE-1213-0046%20Plan.pdf Now I'm no architect but it looks like it's getting a pretty sizable upgrade. Is this an indication of the upgraded status of our academy being approved or just something that's part of the bigger plan now we've got more money. Here's the full list of things on the agenda if you wanted to have a look. http://www2.erewash.gov.uk/moderngov/ieListDocuments.aspx?MId=1364&x=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Good find. 4 new pitches, more parking and a new small building. Most interesting is probably the outdoor all weather pitch, which we haven't had before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsall_Ram Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'm guessing we achieved the 'category 1 status academy' then..? Not heard anything else official and Rush said it would be around the fixtures time when we would find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 After all the trouble with Oakwood residents ( Derby City Council ) back in 1999/2000 no wonder this has been kept quiet Once built is landscaped away from view, and I cannot imagine the traffic/nuisance really increased to residents. Green belt building a norm nowadays in my opinion ...take Mickleover outskirts .....again though is Derby South, and Amber Valley councils approving Green belt building plans .... Hope we get the extended facility we are asking for ... before Oakwood objects en masse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

needles Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'd say take this thread down on the off chance some Oakwood wallah spots it and complains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they already did futsal? I think we were one of the first academies to introduce it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggsy Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I'd say take this thread down on the off chance some Oakwood wallah spots it and complains. Too late, I've already written a strongly worded letter to my local council. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovine_Interferer Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I remember getting letter of the week in the Telegraph formy missive about the idiocy of Oakwood people objecting to the Training Centre. Some one even accused me of being DCFCs planning expert trying to undermine their appeals. "Green Belt" they were all screaming. Well what were their precious flamin homes built on? Better some football pitches than the next large Tesco eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subman Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I'm sure DCFC revealed the plans several months ago regarding this development, looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
