Main Stand redevelopment thread

I've heard Sainsbury's is being replaced by a mosque, I always wanted to see the back of it but now I'm not so sure, no more hot dogs and the burgers will all be halal.

Wrong chat group! We have a news and politics section for this kind of banter - lets keep this to football only

you'd do better telling that to the poster I replied to rather than me

It's about 3 weeks to go now and I'm expecting to see the explosives being placed around the temporary away changing rooms (portakabin) 😉

Seriously. Has there been an official announcement about how the build will be done?

If they have decided to knock the old thing down, then that can't happen until the end of the season. It will reduce capacity by 5k for at least one season, maybe longer. That is quite a loss of revenue.

Hopefully we are going with our original plan. More expensive but far less disruptive.

Would be interesting to know what happens to the press and director seats. Maybe relocated to Whitehorse end boxes. As for the poor season ticket holders suppose they get left out in the cold

It doesn't seem like a good option.

I wonder how much less it would cost to knock the old stand down first.
It would have to be a substantial saving to make it worth the grief.

I'd hate to be in the last 5 rows of that "East" stand

I don't think AI is anything to worry about for now

Unfortunately Covid and the subsequent cost increases scuppered the timescale for building the new stand and as a consequence have limited our income and ability to sign more expensive players. That in turn may result in us losing our current coach. Not ideal but better that than sliding back into bankruptcy.
