Adelaide Oval upgrade gets green light

[whufc]

As I posted in the cricket forum in response to whufc's multiple thread spamming:

The Advertiser advocated for the project until it was approved, and now will milk every minor talking point over the next 4 - 5 years until it is built. It has been a clear and blatant change of tact from them on this project.

I'm saying this is a pretty obvious strategy by The Advertiser - nothing sells a chip wrapper more than controversy over a public project. There may indeed be some robust discussion about the footbridge, as their has been about the car parking.

However in my opinion the deliberate antagonistic tones of reporting in the Addie since the YES vote are about nothing more than drumming up their own business in our wonderful monopolised one paper town.

Am I the only one that thinks the Advertiser's obvious change in tact on it's reporting of this project is a orchestrated strategy by them to sell their chip wrapper? Surely other people can see this?

I dont agree the different threads offer different point of views. The Cricket thread is generally coming from people who are more involved in cricket rather than football while the AFL thread is generally people who have the AFL's interests at heart first.

The whole saga is a campaign to sell papers if you ask me......

The idea is flawed anyway. The AFL see the prime location for a stadium and will shaft the other party so they will get what they want. IMHO should have saved our pennies for a couple more years then build a new venue at Victoria Park.

whufc, regardless of who posts where you are definitely spamming across all the AO redevelopment threads on this issue

If the thread has been bumped 9 times out of 10 it's you who's bumped it

Unbelievable, surely they've got to have it from near the Festival Theater/Casino and not force people to an area where they don't want to go.
If they make it to the Convention Centre then everyone will just walk down King William St like they would now.

I do agree with you here Wedgie.
it must go directly to the train station via Casino.
this is the key to the success of the precint upgrade.

Great now the excuses as to why poeople aint going to AFl in the city is going to be because a bridge wasnt placed in a certain place.

I can see the headlines now "SANFL wanted the bridge where it is. It's the SANFL's fault" .

Who would want to eat somewhere with thousands of football fans walking past?

when this developement doesnt work they will need a scapegoat. SANFL and SACA seems the most likely suspects IMHO.

If you need anything else explained to you (as you certainly dont appear to have a clue whats going on) just ask mate. Im always happy to explain things to you like I was talking to my 6 y.o just you can keep up to date.

"when this developement doesnt work"

just another idiotic comment from Mr Negative Naysayer.
what makes you so sure? Already we are getting a taste of what it will be like, when two bottom 8 sides were scheduled to play with no development. This has created a lot of interest.
NFI mopar!

Where?

[The Sleeping Giant]

Well if you combined all the treads on Adelaide oval, it would be nearly 100 pages long. I would say there is some interest.

Well case closed obviously.I mean nothing wrong with basing the long term success of a developement on the vibe of one game at the end of the year.



I wouldnt be throwing out to many NFI calls if I was you AFl flyer.

Just cos you are extremely desperate to see this work.
No need to accuse others who disagree with your desperation of having NFI IMHO.

And this is what your basing the success of the developement on.
The vibe of the one of game this year.

well, unless you can see into the future, what else is there to base my argument on?
unless you have something worthwhile to say, don't bother.

Hilarious contradiction BTW.

so you honeslty dont know what other measurements are out there to use ???

and you are 100% convinved the only available measurement tool is the vibe of one game later this year ???

Dear oh dear!!!!

Let me guess you are also happy to commit $800Mill to a vibe.

Please forgive some of us for not sharing the same view as you. We all have NFI obviously.

Not for me and I'd say many others, there isn't.
Amazing waste of money

[AFLflyer]

well clearly i don't have NFI , as the "YES" vote got up (and yes there were many arguments for and against before this vote on this forum) whch i and others have entered into many times,
, so unless you have something NEW to share???
YES got up, so get over it

If you say so.

I never debated it didnt get a "YES" vote AFLflyer.

I just alluded to your prediction of its inevitable success. And your justification of your prediction is the "vibe" of one game later this year.

And your claim there is no other way to predict its success but the vibe. As the dumbest thing I have ever heard in my 15 years of business dealings period.

SO AFL FLyer(denis Dunuto) how can you assure everyone spending $800 million on Adelaide Oval will advantage everyone in this state.

Can you find something that says $800m is being spent on Adelaide Oval? You speak of credibility yet offer very little in that department.
