While Ken Davy has the financial clout, the whole thing doesn't sit easy with me. When KD became the owner of Huddersfield Town, buying them out of administration if I recall correctly, he transferred the Football Clubs shares in the stadium into a trust or business that he controlled for a nominal £1. To "safeguard" them. When new owner at Huddersfield town was settled (Dean Hoyle I think) KD tried to sell the shares back at market rate. This led to a long drawn out affair and he certainly isn't popular with the Town fans. He's a businessman, if he spends money it is to make money (except with the Giants of course). So if he sinks a large amount of cash into The Shay, he'll want a return on the investment eventually. Personally I can't see a new stadium in Huddersfield been built. There are very limited suitable sites. Especially now modern planning regs will have to show how you plan for people to travel to games using public transport. The only site near the town centre suitable would have been the old Sports Centre but the Uni are building on that now, So in 3-5 years, Huddersfield are either still playing at The Shay, or looking for a return to The John Smiths, where all evidence of the Giants existence has already been removed in favour a very blue and white theme. Kevin Nagel (town owner) has said the Giants are welcome as long as they want to be there, but KD has started laying the foundations to move out. Then there is also the issue, KD isn't a young man, what if something happens to him?

[quote="Brew":xc58vamv]That's another issue which I wasn't going to mention, He's 84 years old, Father Time waits for no one, Who know's what even happens to the Giants when the reaper calls for Ken. If the DavyDome isn't built before then it may never happen[/quote:xc58vamv] Exactly one of the points, who knows? Answer no one. Another point on who knows what. You mentioned Ken Davy and history that upset some Huddersfield Town fans. Do you know the full circumstances and details of what the issue was, do you know his side of the argument? It’s just that looking at our own history as a rugby club just taking FC Town Shaymen fans assessment would hardly be the place to get a fair and accurate view. On the other hand what we actually do know the last time I looked Huddersfield Town were still in their stadium as majority share holders with the opportunity to become full owners and when Davy sold his shares they didn’t pay over the odds or get ripped of in anyway.

[quote="faxcar":1sx2nk1e]In 5 to 10 years with respect to him and the inevitable he’s more likely to be dead and looking at many in the crowd at Fax games these days he won’t be in his own. [/quote:1sx2nk1e] Maybe he'll turn the skircoat stand into an old people's home and a crematorium.

[quote="Listenup94":1fyqeg36]Maybe he'll turn the skircoat stand into an old people's home and a crematorium.[/quote:1fyqeg36] Or thinking of the reputation of the rugby club maybe dig the pitch up as required. Davy could be first with a little sign saying “please keep off the Ken.”
