I should've responded to this claim previously but couldn't be bothered.

My original post was regarding where Broncos would train and not claiming they where office-less. Let me explain.

As you can imagine Underhill is comprised of several buildings.

1. Pavilion
Currently Broncos fitness gym and on land owned by the council adjacent to Underhill stadium and behind the Durham Suite. Not part of any sale.
2. Durham Suite
Fairly modern brick built offices and conference facility in the South west corner of the ground. Has separate access from the rest of the stadium via an access road. This may\may not be part of the sale, but if it is then it is likely to be retained in any future development and usable while development progresses.
3. South Stand
Modern 6 year old demountable stand adjacent to durham suite that Broncos currently use the internal space and existing plans are for it to be moved to the Hive to become the North stand once approved.
4. Main stand
Old and full of asbestos, requiring specialist work to dismantle
5. Other Buildings
North & North west turnstyles, East terrace and family stand are all unused. All will need demolishing to make way for whatever is built.

Hopefully this gives you enough to see that the buildings that will need to be demolished are not the buildings in use by the Broncos as office space. Yes I think they will need to move at the point planning has been approved and the South stand is taken down by, but that is not now. If demolition work is to commence then I suspect it will be to remove turnstyles and start dismantling the main stand

So we could stay there whilst everything is dismantled or demolished around us?
It's like gus never left!!!!!

Easier to show on a map. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Und ... e08c80cbea The pavilion, Durham suite and South stand have separate access with parking via priory grove and could be used while the adjacent site is prepared for development.

The player I was chatting to let the cat out of the bag, and so, respecting the clubs position I will say no more, but suffice to say, the venue is sorted and we will be there soon.

To be honest GF all your points are valid but frankly (and maybe I am easily pleased), I dont care. We are were we are, they are finally giving it a go, history is history (learn and move forward), I sense a real good vibe (I might imagine it), the players, organisation, engagement yesterday was first class, there are still issues, but this time last year .....

Sounds like everything was being packed to move last week. Not yet convinced they are off to the Hive.
I'm sure we will find out soon enough. Either way I very much doubt they are officeless

Can't be bothered creating a new thread.

Just to say planning permission to complete the Hive has now been granted.

Cheers Mel. What are the full plans?

Here's a direct link to the plan showing the rear west stand extension and replacing the North Terrace with the seated stand from Underhill. www.harrow.gov.uk/planningsearch ... nt=obj.pdf I'm confident that further improvements will be applied for but for now all the outstanding planning issues have been resolved.

The current capacity is 5500 which is capped to 5100, after the changes the capacity will be nearer 6000 but still capped to 5100. If the cap became an issue then an application with impact assessment reports would need to be made.

The canopy at the rear of the west stand is complete but it is clearly doubles up as the supports for adding the first floor of the rear extension (It is far too solid and has way too many wires to be just a simple canopy). This was put in during the fortnight mid December when we had no home games. After New years day we have no home games for 24 days so my guess is more work will take place then.

I notice the Bronco web site now has their offices as located at the Hive. Not sure where in the Hive as there was nothing visible last weekend.
