Jeeze, kick Bob Young when he's down eh? The team is NOT a success in its present location, but the city wants to relocate the stadium to a place that has many of the limitations of the current one: poor transit access chief among them. If I owned the team I'd rather risk a move to the 'burbs too, but that would only be if there were no suitable locations where the ring expressways came close to the city centre, and there ARE such locations at King & Main Streets, and Aberdeen too.

Gripe about the Ti-Cats all you like. I lost interest decades ago, though it would be nice if the city had a decent stadium to house soccer because that is a game for the future (remember all those immigrants who come to Hamilton and move on?) but Tiffany St. is simply NOT a good commercial location unless you want to plough through a public transit line and/or a highway with parking. There's no incentive for ownership to build the customer base from this location. Better to drive everyone away and stop leaking money now.
