Quote ="bezzerscr"Think this is to do with Sale trying to put Stocport MBC under pressure to come up with a new or revamped Edgeley Park.'"
I agree, it appears Brian Kennedy (Sale's Owner) as a shrewd businessman could just be using the JV of Salford Council & Peel, Leigh Sports Village and whoever else, to force Stockport council to offer some funding to help redevelop Edgeley Park. I think this could explain why we are hearing rumours of ridiculous demands because Sale have no intention of coming to Barton.
I don't know if this is true but I'm told that Brian Kennedy owns or has shares in the company that have the catering contract for the matchday hospitality at Edgeley Park. If this is correct I doubt it would be in his financial interests to move away from Stockport, especially when you consider he had to take out a 4m loan to buy the ground?
There are plans that already exist for redeveloping Edgeley Park and the surrounding area (See link)

| Two issues and a side comment.
Salford Council are facing very serious cuts and are also only part of the owning partnership. They, as part of this partnership, will sell a lease to anyone who puts up the money, fits the "high status sports club" tickboxes, and cab attract investment into Salford (if only from burger vans). Remember Sale moved into Stockport (from Trafford) and did not rename themselves at all.
If we are "primary tenants", we have advantages in priority use that could be bargained away : we may agree to giving up in return for the finances that could repay those who so heavily loaned money to the club.
Side comment: there is a rumour Kennedy is willing to sell Sale.
Re Stockport/Edgeley (I work 1/2 mile from the ground): believe me they are not popular.

I heard he was looking to sell out several months ago but I am told that his enthusiasm has returned recently since his son Jonny Kennedy became a regular in the Sharks first team.

| This new stadium when built will be yours, in my opinion you should keep it to your selves as we intend to (cas) when built. Dont you just love the way those that are renting soccer grounds or share with the dark side are so jealous of teams with their own ground.
Good luck with the build and keep all lodgers out of YOUR new stadium
Heppy missed him, honest guv

| Get real, the stadium will not pay for itself on 3500 fans, great opportunity if true, Leeds rugby league share with union side, see no problem with such a venture, lets get into the real world, we don't have enough support to to have the stadium to ourselves & don't think United reserves or Swinton rugby league or FC united will generate the real income needed.

I have a feeling the crowds will be slightly higher than 3500 when we move into the new stadium.

| Not sure how wealthy Brain Kennedy is, but what if Sale did move in, he liked the place, and so made a bid to a cash strapped local authority and a property development company to buy the stadium?

| I say let them in, at least if we have another rugby team there they won't be moaning about the state of the pitch. Makes the stadium more financially viable as well if its being used every week.Makes total sense to me to be honest!

| I also work in Stockport and every single Stockport County fan bar none hate what the Sale chairman has done to their club. I'm worried that if Salford don't let them in, they may try and get into the LSV, but i'd rather them go out of business. I really hope neither of our 100 year old clubs let them in and have to put up with the chairman of Sale throwing his weight about due to his wealth. I think F.C. United and Man Utd Reserves in the winter and Swinton Lions (sorry) and yourselves in the summer should make up the other teams in the stadium. The pitch can take it easy enough, we had Blackburn Reserves, Leigh RMI and Leigh Centurions on ours and it was like a billiard table.

I agree, especially about FC United. We're really lucky that they're not planning to move elsewhere.

Same number of fans around it as a billiard table too, I believe?!
