I used to follow that train of thought, but now I can’t help thinking that Peel themselves don’t really know what exactly to do with the airfield site. I heard a rumour that they had talked with some major manufacturing firm and a local university and neither were interested due to the isolated location relative to Sheffield. It is a rumour so could be nonsense, but still it is possible.. Hence why I do believe Peel would/will sell if they are offered the right price, I don’t expect their right price would be a value many would be prepared to pay and that is the problem, and is why Ros Jones was keen to suggest that any investor may wait for a CPO.
