does anybody know if the new stand will be up and ready to use in time for our visit there?

Doubt it judging from a pic I saw the other day.

No doubt a Fev fan will read this and let us know.

BTW they are losing at Wakefield in today's friendly 28 0 at HT.

Shouldn't the title be "new, old stand, that is proving a pain in the to put back together?"

They've only just finished clearing the old terrace. Hopefully those travelling on the 3rd can group together somewhere (probably the terracing at the top of the steps near the turnstiles is the best bet).

Fev lost 38. 10. Not too bad a result imo.

Francis friendlies dont mean much , the Lagoon Bar will still be open .

we'll all be crammed into 3 sides chaps, theres nothing at railway end now, dont know when work will begin on erecting stand and dont worry lagoons open

Spoken like a true Wiganer!

Bit unfair Alan. He never mentioned how good the pies where.

Ah but things like that never need saying these days Frank, they're taken as read. It's a bit like you never see HKR fans these days, saying how big their crowds are, or Widnes fans saying how rubbish their coach is...........

No chance it'll be ready for the fixture.

You are looking at completion of the start of the 2014 season.

Once the stand is complete the pitch will need extending and an extension to the clubhouse.

I know your pitch length will be increased' but what about the slopes ?

No plans to increase the slopes
