That is not the case at all. The best you can hope for is that the petition will be looked at by an appropriate council official.

And on the front page of Newsletter recently was the chap who tried to get the Santa Parade back on and he only had a few hundred names but was allowed to present it and speak at their cabinet meeting. Also a public meeting.
When you submit an ePetition to the Council it can have positive outcomes that lead to change and inform debate. It can bring an issue to the attention of the Council and show strong public approval or disapproval for something which the Council is doing. In response your petition will be considered and the Council may decide, for example, to change or review a policy, hold a public meeting or run a public consultation to gather more views on the issue but will not necessarily take the action asked for.
Whatever the system used behind the petition, the choice is quite simple. If you are happy with the planning decision and potential loss of the hockey and cricket club, do nothing. If you think the decision unfair and damaging then sign. Simples.
No you can't.You could, apparently, have a square pitch - this would help greatly with the 'muddy goalmouth' problem.
That's a shame. Would an inch do? Then you could practice the short way and not really notice the difference for the real matches.No you can't.
"The length of the touch line must be greater than the length of the goal line" as stated on the screenshot.
The 3G pitch at Rowley Park is a perfectly acceptable size at 98m x 67m and should be able to be used for all competitive matches except International matches (where the minimum size is 100m x 64m). Why the League where FC Stafford play deem this pitch to be too small I cannot understand.

In my view, the league shouldn't be specifying a minimum pitch dimensions which are larger than the minimum FIFA requirements but that is a completely different argument altogether.Just clarified it with FC Stafford Chairman.
Pitch is 6m too small for West Midlands Div 1 and Premier league requirements/rules
