Now I’d never want to see a McDonalds next to Stone Henge, who would. However I fail to see what you could possibly build on that stretch of Donny road that could make it look worse!
It’s not that it’s terrible, it’s just a nothing place. Mainly cheap shops and light industry and half a dozen houses, most rented I suspect.
Apart from a few basic considerations, access and parking it should be a zone where only minimal planning is required. I can’t think of anything we could build that wouldn’t actually improve the place - especially as we have our own parking.
In an area like Agbrigg/BV a club like ours shouldn’t have to face planning restrictions. Much of it isn’t residential and the bits of it near the ground that are, are low grade housing. That’s not being snobbish either it’s just how it is. One of my best mates was born there and grew up there. He loves the place even now, but he always wanted to move on up.
If you’re ever going to improve run down areas you have to allow people total freedom. There is nothing that Trinity in particular could do that wouldn’t benefit the place. We’ve already made it look twenty times better!
Dear Mr Kear, let the MEs of this world do there stuff unencumbered. I’d trust them far more than your average planning committee or career planning officer

Neither would I , the drive thru would be horrendous
And you would still have to park up after going through drive through and wait 20 minutes for a macdonalds employee to walk round looking at number plates and walking in circles with your order.
No place boils my innards like that sorry excuse for a chain. My kids love it but it’s ran with zero efficiency or customer service in mind.
Good to see that the coffee shop idea is a viable option. That was the first thing I suggested many months ago as one of the viable options that could generate revenue on a busy Doncaster road. Especially if you can make a drive through section and utilise the stadium car park for customer parking.
Fresh coffee, simple danish and tray bake options are all that’s needed along with a whopping big sign before the entrance to car park.
