Finally, something for the kids. About time they sorted that reserve out.

facts, council loves wasting money on pretty drawings while roads fall apart

More council nonsense. Just fix the potholes on Blackpool St first, then we can talk about fancy reserves.

oh great another round of 'public consultation' where no one listens anyway. 3 options? they'll pick the cheapest one that'll look crap in 5 years. ffs

woah calm down it's just a playground upgrade not a bloody stadium

Grace Patel2026-07-22T05:04:00.000Z

Show me the cost breakdown for each design. That'll tell you everything you need to know about which one gets built.

Would be nice to have somewhere decent to walk the dog after work. Current state is a dump.

get outta here with your optimism mate, we know how this goes

Jamie Fox2026-07-22T05:53:00.000Z

It's an upgrade, not a miracle. Let's see the plans first before shitting on it.

Chloe Martin2026-07-22T06:13:00.000Z

lol yeah right, they'll probably make it all concrete and astroturf

Stuff2026-07-22T06:19:00.000Z

bet my left nut the 'preferred option' will have 'limited seating' and some crap playground. classic

Taylor Wright2026-07-22T06:54:00.000Z

even a shitty upgrade is better than the broken glass and weeds we got now
