Nameless Dome is definitely planned to go to Forest School, which makes sense given the Academy lads are based there.
Loss of a 3G pitch won't kill the deal, easy to put some money the council's way to put a pitch in at Palmer Park or somewhere.
Presumably once this is resolved the issue of Bearwood will be readdressed. We need all weather training facilities anyway, and the lease at Hogwood must be up soon (I've lost track of the actual ownership details for that !)

Nameless mmm, I had thought SJM had bought it privately and leased it to the club.

Summary: Sport England objects to the proposal because it is not considered to accord with any of the exceptions to Sport England’s Playing Fields Policy or with Paragraph 74 of the NPPF.

Existing open space, sports and recreational buildings and land, including playing fields, should not be built on unless:
● an assessment has been undertaken which has clearly shown the open space, buildings or land to be surplus to requirements; or
● the loss resulting from the proposed development would be replaced by equivalent or better provision in terms of quantity and quality in a suitable location; or
● the development is for alternative sports and recreational provision, the needs for which clearly outweigh the loss.

And paragraph 74 of the National Planning Policy Framework says:Existing open space, sports and recreational buildings and land, including playing fields, should not be built on unless:
● an assessment has been undertaken which has clearly shown the open space, buildings or land to be surplus to requirements; or
● the loss resulting from the proposed development would be replaced by equivalent or better provision in terms of quantity and quality in a suitable location; or

Which is a fair enough objection I'd say.

Sounds a pretty weak objection to me. It's largely the car park that's being built on and not a particularly good one in terms of "finish" at that. The only "sporting" loss is the Dome and associated pitches, which are owned by the club (and as far as I know not a public facility), and the Dome is being relocated to the "Academy" at Forest school where it's a better fit for its purpose while the additional pitches will be moved to Bearwood in time.
The only other question is where will the "Garden of Remembrance" be moved to, or will everyone just work round it
