“I think this decision is bloody Disgusting as I will have no where else to go when it closes my nearest lesuire centre is based with Gedling Borough council and therefore does not accept my City Card and will be more expensive for be to go swimming, My nearest lesuire centre within Nottingham City Council is 2 bus rides away”

“I am bloody disgusted with this decision, I swim there every Saturday and when it closes I will have have any where else to go as my only other nearest swimmin baths is based within
Gedling Borough Council and will not accept my City Card,this means it will be two expensive. My nearest baths within Nottingham City Council will be two bus rides away

Nottingham City Council has a blatent disregard for health and fitness”

“This is history repeating itself. The City of Nottingham allowed its architectural heritage to be blighted once before, when it commissioned the Victoria Centre - and it tried to convince us then that it would look alright if they retained the clock tower. Some people never learn.”

“"There's no excuse for making for making baseless and slanderous accusations about people who work hard for the local communities they serve. Peter Scoffings, Nottingham "..................the only one's that work hard for the local communities that they serve are usually on the lowest rate of pay with no expenses and longer hours, a lot are called cleaners, caretakers, etc and they are constantly being kicked in the teeth by those at the top who are vastly overrated and vastly overpaid!!!!!”

“Wonders if Peter works for the council....

"There's no excuse for making for making baseless and slanderous accusations about people who work hard for the local communities they serve".

I think the audit commission did that in their report.

The truth is, if you want it to close and pull down a lovely Victorian building and part of Nottinghams heritage, tell the public its going to cost too much. Has anyone actually seen the true costs of restoration, probably not, and even if some people have seen quotes, I bet they have been hyped up.

Isn't it about time the council started listening to the people of nottingham.”

“People commenting here seem to forget that it's the swimming pool and the use that will be made for it over the next 20 years that's most important. Rennovating the existing building would just be a short term fix that wouldn't encourage greater use by the local community or meet the needs of swimming clubs and children learning to swim.

The council have made the right decision.

And anyone suggesting that councillors and officers take kickbacks should put forward some real evidence or shut up. There's no excuse for making for making baseless and slanderous accusations about people who work hard for the local communities they serve.”

“Dom, Nottingham says.

Once again, Coun Collins rides roughshod over the wishes of the Nottingham public.

He rode a bike from Paris and thats all he's done for a good casue.

He comes back from his bike ride and this is what you get.
The only way to get the results that the people of Nottingham want and deserve is to Kick Collins and his Labour Council Lemins out of power.
All those that voted Labour in the last time just remember these dark days.
Dont re vote Labour again”

“"Detailed designs need to be finalised before building can start!"
So that's where they have gone wrong with that abortion of a shed on the Garners Hill site.
They did not get the plans sorted before they built the damn thing!”

“£5.8 million overspend . . .
remember you read it here first!”

“Another case of the public not being listened to.
£9.2m rising to a possible £15m.
Where have they found yet another few million quid to indulge their fantasies?
We will have yet another sad incongruity like the Victoria Station tower.
It is called offering a sop to the whingers.”
