In what way have Edinburgh jumped the gun?

They have publicised their proposals they are submitting and thereby making their fanbase full aware of the situation.

This gives the fans the opportunity to support the application in advance, be it financial assistance, lobbying local councillors, etc.

Nothing wrong with that approach which are commonplace with those who are seeking permission to introduce new developments.

As I previously stated, the Promotion have acknowledged the planning deadlines and that there are probably other interested parties in acquiring the site,  so how  has it led to people believing its in the bag?

They've jumped the gun by saying it will be ready in Spring 2023, when given the work that will be needed if and when they even get the go ahead is an extremely large ask.

As long as Lidl or Aldi don’t get wind of a bit of land available. If I was landowner and they offered more, then sorry Edinburgh Speedway, match it or get ready for center isle food blenders and size 42 stretch jeans.

Of course we all want Edinburgh speedway to continue but never heard of a club announcing they are racing next season when they haven’t even purchased the land and got planning permissions in place. With all the goodwill in the world it’s going to be stretching it buying the land, getting permissions and building a stadium. Unless it’s a portacabin and scaffold terraces.

Lidl and Aldi already have big warehouses in the area along with Tesco so don’t need to worry about that.
