Not a big surprise, seeing as our amazingly inept council has failed to resolve a location acceptable to all parties involved. Hate to say it, but I called this a year ago when council refused to research a feasible 'Plan B' location for the now-defunct Barton and Tiffany proposal. If they performed their due diligence back then we wouldn't be behind the eight-ball now.

Personally I think the Aldershot location would work, although I'd rather see the infrastrucutre investment and the related economic activity from the Ticats remain within the city boundaries (remember a few months ago Tourism Hamilton identified that the Ticats account for 25% of all tourism-based revenue for the city). Bit of a moot point though, seeing as there isn't enough time to bring the Aldershot proposal together.
