Just to let you all know, all being well I'm meeting JM tonight.

It's basically to pass on your concerns about the redevelopment and general issues.

I will report back whatever I can, but be assured I will have passed on all the sensible questions that you have all asked over the last six week or so.

Thanks

Good to know Vasty.

Long term, Rome wasn't built in a day, it would be good to see a bit of tarting up other sides, such as the west and south.

Some good old photos of the old South stand on facebook the other day. Wasn't the Benidorm flats only meant to be a temporary solution. With this, I'm not thinking something all singing and dancing, but maybe a slightly better structure. It does have a feel of portakabins stacked on top of each other. We do have a large function room in the new east stand, but what about some slightly smaller ones, say to seat 8-16 people or so, for smaller business meetings

Thanks for that .Know you will not be able to spill all the beans.,but if it stopped half the rumers it will be worth it .

To be honest I hope I can spill all the beans, that's my aim. I'm really not into knowing things, I'm far happier sharing. And to be honest they didn't talk about anything last time that I couldn't talk about on here.

So hopefully I will have the answers to all or most of the stadium question. On field stuff I'll find out same time the rest of you do, they don't tell that any of that stuff me, be great if they did but sadly not, but then again I'd probably blab.

Would be great if you could find out if they are replacing Miller like for like ,or are we going cheep option

I'll ask but I won't get an answer, but if you don't ask.....

Only if he has a rugby playing twin.

Can’t give you an answer but that doesn’t mean there isn’t one. There is no need to panic there are plenty of options available. Lot of OOC players this season.

It is possible I've missed other news that puts the comments in context, but what did you mean about the North Stand looking potentially ugly to some? What is the revision to the upgrade that makes you say that?

Cheers

His sister is a pretty good player tbf....

Ok. Incredible meeting with so much discussed.

I will attempt in the next week or so to tell you what was said. I will need to run it past JM before I do so. This is because I need to be sure that I’m not letting out sensitive info as much of what was discussed is still ongoing.

Things I can tell you are.

I walked on the pitch and it’s incredibly flat. What it isn’t is noticeably higher, maybe 6 inches at most.

The pitch offers 30 - 40 hours a week usage which I think is a heck of a lot. We will save a young players wage not having to rent training facilities.


All being well the steal work will go up in October.

The North stand can be extended at a later date, however that will only be if there is a demand for extra capacity. As explained to me it will look better than you might think, a lot better.

I believe JM will put out a release at some point to explain. However this will be when he gets the chance as they are incredibly busy.

There is loads more to report but bear with me please.

As for as on field, I honestly got nothing but then I didn’t really ask.

Whose saying it? If you go on the planning portal the revision was made in August. Reduces capacity but not sure how it’s uglier.

It was this bit. I may have been reading it out of context.

Sorry I meant in an engineering respect. What it will look like will depend on how they finish it off.
