I’ve not measured it but there’s plans online?Is it me or does that plot of land they are working on not look big enough to incorporate three football pitches plus buildings?

Not sure if it's the case, but I suppose they might be concentrating on the pitch area first and haven't started with the buildings?Is it me or does that plot of land they are working on not look big enough to incorporate three football pitches plus buildings?
Up until yesterday, they only had permission to build the pitches I think? Can't imagine they'd have set everything out for the buildings and started moving earth before that.
The site is 12.3 acres, a pitch is about 2 acres.
That still leaves room for a big car park and changing roomsI thought it was closer to 3 acres. Which would take up nearly 9 of the 12.3.

Thankyou Mr Ward!To put everyone’s mind at rest. The site is 5ha, there is 2.471 acres in 1 hectare so total site is 12.355 ac. Each pitch is full-size, 100m x 70m = 0.7hectares. (10,000 sq m in 1 hectare) x 2.471 = 1.73 acres for 1 pitch. 3m separates each pitch and there is the 25m wide training grid between pitch 1 and 2. So the site is more than big enough with lots of spare grass area to the west of the building. Sorry for those that know the hectare to acre calculations but thought it useful for those of you that don’t. School day over!

In hand!Bloody hell Farmer, that's impressive; I see DC has given you some maths lessons.
Now please get them sorted out with a reliable water storage system at Sincil Bank.
Yes, it's in the planning info if you read it.Will there be a high perimeter fence around the site, I know our shooting has been a bit wayward at times.
