Both projects are subject to seperate grant funding bodies and by the time the East Stand funding was approved the expected approval of the North Stand funding was not far away and the club decided to save some cash by combining both projects and awarding the contract for both to one main contractor. As it turned out the final approval for the North Stand took longer than was anticipated and the only work carried out on the East Stand todate has been the ground clearance i preparation for the pilings to go in, I would be suprised if the East Stand is started before the season commences as the emphasis will be on moving the current North Stand to the South in preparation for the North Stand work commencing in the new year.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.

But he mentioned the North stand , all I was doing was reminding him of a ' planned ' extension , that hasn't been done in the time span originally suggested , about 18 months late I'd suggest , so any further ' plans ' are just that , plans ' and most plans never happen
So best to just leave them alone IMO of course

Surely the East terrace extension is a much simpler construction than the design for the North stand , and considering the extra revenue it could potentially provide , it would have been sensible to get it done in the close season as quickly as possible if the funding is in place |

| Little bit harsh that bud. from when we started realistically pushing for Super League Craven Park has had a massive transormation.
A £400k new pitch makes a massive difference to the stadium
We then start work on the 1st east stand extension.
East stand extension is finished. adding much need capacity.

Got to be fair to HKR and said that they've done the best they can considering they were started off with an absolute mess of a stadium with the track and wind tunnel etc (remember the bits of carpet that were nailed over the corners of the in goal areas?!)

| Easty , I'm a big fan of HKR and what they have achieved both on and off the field in recent years from a start in the NFP/NL s , I just don't want you to join in with the ' we'll have this by next year ' brigade
Does the term ' keeping your powder dry ' mean anything to you ? , if so , don't post " this is what WILL happen in a bit " , post " this is what IS happening NOW " |

 With a population of about 1/3 of Cas' that seems about right to me.
Still no planning application and December virtually upon us.
Land with approval for a supermarket available for 5 years, Tesco allegedly desperate to build in Cas...... Something doesn't quite add up does it?

HKR is the worst ground for the away speccies, the ground in which 3 stands are in Hull and the away end is in Holland

You do realise that if this comes off the stand you hate so much wont be used any more right?
So I guess you just felt like flapping your gums for the sake of it. |

It would be nice if clubs brought enough fans to actually use our "away" stand

Calm down, putting your loyalties aside even you must admit that the stand in question is the worst in rugby, until it changes that will always be the case and hopefully it does become redundant soon. |

It's not 10 years ago, but it is far too long for a temporary Stand. |

i dont think he was talking about the temp stand but the actual south stand terrace. I could be wrong. The Temp stand is not the worst stand in the league by a long way in my opinion |

Like I said this is going to be redressed this close season all things being equal.
So did you decide to get one last pop in for old times sake? |
