Club submits bid to Regional Growth Fund (RGF)
Chairman Daniel Levy said, "The NDP plans represent sport-led regeneration, anchored by our proposed new stadium. It would directly create thousands of new, private sector jobs, attract millions of pounds of additional expenditure in the local economy and lever further private sector investment into the area. As importantly, it would also protect the hundreds of current Club jobs, its existing economic impact and the valuable work of the Club's charitable Foundation in the local communities, by enabling us to stay in our current location.
"We are one of the few large private sector employers in the Borough and the NDP is currently the sole significant proposed scheme for creating sustainable private sector jobs. Quite simply the Club is the only private entity looking to invest, on this scale, in the Borough and reverse the decline of decades of under-investment."

Does anyone else think that this was the plan all along? 1. We try ndp ourselves but due to costs became unrealistic. 2. We explore the os and bid. 3. We upset lammey et al with our threat to leave who. 4. We seek jr against decision to give os to west ham, on of the grounds based upon the £40 mil "soft loan" from newham newham

Blooming iPhone rubbish....
We then get a lot of publicity concerning us leaving n17 and the serious detriment caused to the area. We then suggest an application for rdf to assist with costs at ndp? Or am I too cynical?

Just reading up on the RGF. Yesterday was the deadline for the SECOND round of RGF bids. The first round has already set aside £4.5bn for successful bids. Why didn't we bid in the first round last year if it was available?

ddd - wouldn't be surprised if there was a bit of politics involved there. No first round RGF money went into London at all. The rest of the country thinks London gets too much as it is. Haringey also applied for Enterprise Zone status last time round, but did't get it, and in fact only one was granted (out of 20 odd I think) in London.
This time around, Boris has declared a Mayoral Development Corp for N17, Haringey have applied again for an Enterprise Zone, and we are making our RGF bid. We have to be in with a good shout.
