He certainly does. I dont know the writer but he's a great supporter of the arts and other scenes scene in SA and writes some really supportive stuff,(as you'd know if you read it). But shooting the messenger is always good fun.

RAW: Socceroos Crowd Farce

So here it was. The show piece clash that would prove once and for all that Adelaide Oval needs to be made into a stadium to hold 50,000.

For the first time in seven years, international soccer was back in town. The Socceroos, ‘fresh from their triumph against the ...

Forgot to inlclue Radio & TV of course

I'd be interested to know who and where Sensational Adelaide readers/posters go for their info on the Oval and who they put their trust in.
Is it:

The Advertiser e.g Rucci, editorials, letters
The Australian (Michael Owen)
The Age
Messenger
Independent Weekly
Adelaide Now (often castigated on this ...

With these changing relationships are we now looking at " absentee landlords" for the Oval. Didn't work for the Irish and certainly adds to a situation that gets curiouser by the day. And I dont like it any more than most of the posters here.

RAW: How The SANFL Is Also Being Stitched Up By The Adelaide Oval Deal

31st May 2011

That now near infamous telephone call placed by AFL Chief Andrew Demetriou with SACA President, Ian McLachlan, in August 2007 may well go down as the most pivotal moment in this State’s sport, if not ever, then ...

Well Kasey its actually the SMA and football wanting the car parks and so far noone is offering to build the underground car park. ( which incidentally theres no objection to ) so any queries about why PT isnt being encouraged needs to go to them. As per my initial comment.

Does anyone have a direct line to the SMA to find out if there's any truth to this? As I've said before I dont oppose footy in the City, but I'm against the way its being done, and surely this isn't the way to sort out the parking? I guess this is why some of us wanted answers to the parking ...

RAW: The Adelaide Oval Legislation – More Than About Carparking

May 24th

In the classic style of an organ of public opinion that will allow no views other than its own to prevail, The Advertiser has relegated issues relating to the proposed Adelaide Oval / SMA legislation to just one matter ...

SJ, wise words and rational arguments are wasted on this lot. They are unable to see beyond their own personal wants and will believe anything or anyone who talks up what they want, shooting down anyone who dares to challenge their opinions. Real schoolyard stuff most of the time.
However, its ...
