Were the Benidorm Flats only ever originally built for temporary use or am I going nuts?  |

Well, the jury is still out on the nuts thing 
But you are right that it was originally a short term solution that became more beneficial as time went on.
It's not bad in there. I wouldn't rush to replace compared to the rest but it will be nice to have that level of hospitality within a good quality stand.

I agree - perhaps offer cheaper hospitality in the flats and hopefully when the other stand is built, be able to charge more of a premium.
Every little helps with the revenue knowing Lord Carts like I do

They were only temporary as I recall,Mary, and did we not default on the payment for them? I think we were told to "Keep 'em" in the end as they would be too expensive to take away.

I seem to recall that was the year we went bust. I think we came to an agreement with the company that owned the flats. It was CVA, we agreed to pay some small percentage in the £, as you say, the company decided it wasn’t worth the cost of removing the flats, it would have been morel than the monies recovered from Trinity. |

We did default on them as they became part of the CVA by agreement. I think we paid 10p in the pound as terms so they paid 100k instead of the million pounds they should have cost.
I suppose it shows just what high margins the supplier was working on for them to accept a 90% hit but they did.
I believe the supplier had no claim against the club as Pearman bought them himself so it was to the benefit of both that a deal was done. Something like that anyway. |

Been past the ground a few times today and it looks like they have completed the floodlight in the Northeast corner but none of the others yet.
