Sorry it was a bit tetchy - but I really don't have a good feeling about this development. As unfair as it might be, women's football does not have the financial clout of the men's game. Its therefore difficult to see how this campus will generate enough money to return profits to local sport and not be a drain on the already stretched resources within local sport generally.
This project feels a bit like HS2 with a momentum generated by itself and without any real discussion about the benefits that will be delivered.
That's not to say that this can be laid at the door of 1874. Clearly it can't. However, given that you guys seem to be in a position to talk to Cheshire FA, perhaps you can relay the thinking that exists about deliverable benefits, which would help to dispel those fears.
