The major issue with all three options that I believe are the most plausible is money.

The Athletics track would require a lot of investment and I don't see who is going to fund this due to the restrictions on the site and its use for Athletics. FA/football foundation grants would not be a possibility on it. You'd need to sort the pitch issue out, get two new stands, separate changing rooms, new bar/Club house, dugouts etc.

With regards to an option like the University, this would require even more money to fence it all off, put in floodlights,and provide all of the above, but you would be able to apply for pitch and facility grants. The main issue is that it would cost many millions.

Finally, and option like Chalky Lane would also require a massive investment. We played an away game there last week and it would cost well in excess of 2 million according to someone in charge of maintenance at our home ground.

Unless someone is going to pump in at least 1-2 million of their own money, I don't see how these options are going to work.
