It is happening, the basement under the holmesdale was getting ‘tanked’ a couple of months ago.

I thought that was Kenny Sansom.

With respect AS, that's a bit out of order. Yes, he's had his demons, but there are a few people including the landlord of a couple of local pubs, that's has been helping Kenny through this.

Been a lot of talk about changing rooms moving to under the Holmesdale so work can start in January. My question is has any one seen this happening work going on or any pictures. Or it could be SP is blowing smoke up our ar..s again

To be fair, this project has been blighted by planning issues, Covid, compulsory house purchases, Sainsbury, and rocketing costs for materials worldwide. Despite all that Parish has kept going even having the thing redesigned in steel when concrete became more expensive! I don’t think he’s blowing smoke up anyone’s arse. It’s happening and we’ll see signs of that in a couple of months.

Away teams have been using a new but temporary dressing room that was made under the Holmesdale Road Stand since the start of the season. Home team Dressing room area is said to also be moving into the Holmesdale from January.
This will then remain the case until the New Main Stand is completed where both dressing rooms will exit onto the pitch where the dugouts currently are.

Thanks for the info glad to hear things are going foward. Hard to judge from over here
