Packer's Field Showdown Tuesday 14th March

Sunspots said:
Can we please try to keep this thread on track (ie: about Packer's Field).

Cheers.

Indeed. Perhaps those of you in 'the gang' should keep your rather ridiculous and ongoing foul ill informed rantings to your 'other place'.
 
Those who tried to get members of the BIMC collective arrested know who they are. I wouldn't dream of suggesting it was anyone on this forum, or that they were finding any excuse to spread innuendo against BIMC, at any sleazy level of imaginings they may care to dredge up.

Give it a rest, or dig yourselves into a hole of self-backfiring slander against BIMC again.

Yes libel is an interesting concept.

I would prefer it if this thread discussed Packers' Field.

Zaskar said:
Indeed, and as you surmise, it wasnt me. I suspect truth will play only a small part in this 'debate'. TBH after the personal grief I recieved previously I certainly wouldnt have entertained further action.

*sigh* / *yawn*

Zaskar: I'm not in any gang, I'm not prone to 'foul ill informed rantings', and I think I've been entirely civil to you. :confused:

You constantly complain about 'personal grief', yet to me, it seems that you always try your hardest to make yourself the centre of attention. Go figure...

I refer you, once again, to post #59. Cheers. :)
 
If you are not one of those excercising their fine minds in said other place then I clearly wasnt referring to you was I ?

Apologies that you felt I was tarring you thusly, not my intention.

--- big sigh ---
 
So, back on topic then.

Has anyone seen the plans. I havent been to have a look a the planning office yet and was hoping someone might be able to outline what is planned, specifically what proportion of the space is likely to be taken by the new faciltiy ?

I do very ocassionally post there (-and many other places too). However, I really don't see what it might have to do with anything here. :confused:

I'm just having a Google now.
 
As Kevicious mentioned earlier, there is a Packers Field website, and it does seem reasonably well updated, so I guess that's the key place to look at the moment for any updates on plans, although none are posted on there yet.

Worth repeating:
http://www.packersfield.org.uk/
 
I didnt find anything on google, but I found this...

"... to develop the space as an Independent School Sports Facility. This will mean building on and fencing in the field, which will severely limit and possibly prevent free public access and use of it. The council’s proposal (which has been granted planning permission) includes an 85 space car park, 8 foot high fence and a new building. It is also very likely that Bristol Athletics Club will be relocated to the site, requiring floodlights and a spectator stand for at least 500 people."

from the easton cowboys. It appears to indicate all the space will be lost to the public.

I think they should post the plans on thier site. Surely they can be viewed and copied at the planning office. (edit) That site was the first place I looked.
 
Like the rest of us, I'm sure the Packers Field people (those who maintain the website), probably have scant hours, or minutes, in the day to maintain things, and so I'm sure they wouldn't object to someone popping down to get a copy of the plans themselves, and then forwarding them a copy.

No, I'm not volunteering. Just saying that from experience I'm a lot more thankful to those who help to provide the information, than to those who only ask why I haven't got the 25 hours in the day necessary to do it myself.
 
Hmm, you suprise me. I have been meaning to go have a look. Will do so on mon / tue and forward to the pf people and post here.

It's a very informative website, and it looks as if a lot of work has gone into it, including outlining the historical context.

Conversely, I can't find any comprehensive information put out by the Academy, which is becoming a bit of a consistent theme. I attended the last public meeting, and a few people made the point to Ray Priest (Principal of the Academy) that the Academy had made little or no effort to publicize (in advance) what was supposed to be a consultation meeting with the local residents.

Again, why is all the most comprehensive information to be easily found on the Packer's Field site and not on the Academy's? Why isn't the Academy making the same effort to inform people of it's plans?

The Packer's Field site also has a few helpful links on there, including one to the council's Planning Department:

That's a very good point, and an unfortunately common occurrence.

Those with planning applications in the offing, which meet a questioning public, tend to be coy enough to realise that you can suck energy out of a campaign by providing so little information yourself, that campaigners are forced into a position of first having to fill the bureaucratic void of simply getting the most basic of information into the public domain, before they can even get onto actively arguing and winning the case against it.
 
Sunspots -Again, why is all the most comprehensive information to be easily found on the Packer's Field site and not on the Academy's? Why isn't the Academy making the same effort to inform people of it's plans?

It is indeed odd that you have found no plans presented by the academy.

That makes me think they are going to start burying nuclear waste on the site for sure.

It also suprises me that the PF site lacks a copy of the plans - TBH that makes me think that perhaps much of the site will remain public.

It would appear to be in both party's interests to advertise the plans. Odd.

Now I really must go see.

Could this be the most truthful post ever written by a troll ?

Ha, that is funny, think about it Bumscare... Anything usefull to contribute? Pretty please. Hmm?
 
I would have thought that with the athletics ground PF will be all glitz and glam for proper athletes with the poor old public getting squeezed out. Plans soon hopefully.
 
No, I tht not. Enjoy your speeling bee boys. Now please try to stop acting like the streotypical internet idiots you have both clearly become.

Jeepers I get enough aspergers syndrome at work without these two obsessed serial underachievers nipping at me. 'Teacher teacher he spelled my name wrong on purpose ! ANd it made me cray boohoo.'

edit

oh and it's dyslexic you wanker.
 
Anyway...The weather has picked up, sparkling and I are thinking about having a picnic on the field next to my home.

We have spoken nicely to the kids flying about on their mopeds and they have agreed to ride around us and give us plenty of space to enjoy the piece of common land that we share as a community.

Thats the spirit! :)

I'll come along, as long as you can put up with the constant police filming from the bushes, that and the DSS, and, of course, the sudden, impromptu arrests knocking over the ribena, and overturning the egg and cress sandwiches.

Ah the digression into insults. . . a sure sign of tha admittance of defeat amd a loss of control.

Would you care to point to the your proof of my underachiveing or that I am a wanker ?

Until such time that you can come up with proof of the said actions. I'm afraid that I may have to form the opinion that this could in fact be a libelous comment.
 
Sparkles mate, with a clear sky the flight into Bristol (and for our neighbours, Cardiff) Airport is fucking ace! :cool: SUCH a good view over the area. Have Fizz and DJ taken you out to somewhere in the country yet? Drop in my mum's house for a cup of tea, they've so many great birds to watch in their garden. :)

I have many great birds to watch in my garden also :)

Just saw a couple of bullfinches and some great tits ;)

It must be living so close to a field...even the kids on motorbikes don't put them off ;) :D
 
All the birds round your way are so rock hard mate they'd push people off motorbikes and peck 'em to pieces! :D Nice tits! :cool:
