“Both are attention-grabbing websites,” Bradley stated.
“Brewery Field has current services that should be repaired, whereas St Helen’s has a terrace and a stand however we must take away the sphere to match the terrace, then transfer the stand and put in new ones.
“So you are placing in a brand new stadium. The price of St Helen’s is a bit increased than Bridgend however the non-matchday alternatives are most likely better there.”
Bradley says neither possibility would contain the general public funding of loans or investments wanted to get going.
Another factor we had been was investing,” stated Bradley.
