BRISTOL City chairman Steve Lansdown has confirmed that things are 'progressing satisfactorily' with the club's plans for a new stadium.

City confirmed last week that plans for the new stadium will be submitted next year, with the club hoping to secure premission to build a 30,000 all-seater stadium on a 42-acre site in the City.

The club are hoping that local residents 'get involved' in the scheme and are inviting anyone interested to become part of the planning process by providing alternative proposals and feedback.

Lansdown told the teamtalk.com,

"I am pleased to report that this project is progressing satisfactorily. It is vitally important for the success of the football club that such a project be successful."
