It's a fair point and one that Sotnick et al were repeatedly criticised for lacking when the Boardsides stadium was mooted. However, that ground plan was ostensibly a property deal stunt dressed up as a need to maximise revenue streams - nobody was fully convinced that York Street couldn't be brought up to scratch. But now staying at York Street is an absolute non-option due to the non-renewal of the lease, so we're currently in the uncomfortable position of having to press ahead in the knowledge that if the Quadrant plan fails we'll probably end up groundsharing at Grantham until we go tits up. It's pretty scary stuff if you think too much about what happens if this gets chucked out. Which is why we have to trust that Newton's done what Sotnick failed to: done his homework.
