| Quote: BarnsleyGull "I dont think £2m will get anywhere near the cost of that stand for Keighley....
Going back 10 years to when my hometown team - Torquay United - opened our new stand, in honour of Paul Bristow who bankrolled the club for a few years and sadly passed away before it was built - that cost £2m and that is basically a stand with no corperate facilities etc. in it.
So I think they may need a bit more brass....
Correct and that would easily be 3 million now maybe more. What’s underneath and behind the actual seats makes a massive difference. I’d guess that half the cost of the east stand is the stuff fans don’t see. Offices, changing rooms. Kitchen, gym etc etc.
You can built a basic stand with nothing underneath for as little as 3 million. Problem is that although it’s a third the cost of the east stand it offers no return. Other than the ticket price it generates zero return. Meaning it actually takes longer to pay for itself.
This is the problem with the west terrace. You can only build a basic stand there due to space restrictions. Meaning you’ll get little capacity increase and little extra revenue. You would spent 3 million for very little return. Economically makes no sense.
The west terrace for the first able future should remain just that. All we should do is attempt to lift up and level the existing terracing to allow fans the viewing angles that they deserve.
This is what 1 million got Maidstone FC 10 years ago, but this one only holds 900. So double that and halve the capacity and it's what Keighley will get for 2.2million now. I'm afraid at the moment the noises fro Keighley are pure hype.

I did try to see last Friday if any further work had been done on the roof, but the viewing angle from the smaller room where Friday lunch was held, I couldn’t see the top of the roof. I did notice a large hole being excavated in front/side of the Rollin shack, also groundwork being done near exit/entrance to car park. We’ll have a better idea on Sunday when we attend the game.

| I know Dunkirk Spirit has had a lot off input into informing us of planning applications etc.. and I didn’t want to steal his thunder, but there’s some revisions to the plans on Wakefield councils website for those interested..
Sorry in advance if this has already been mentioned..

Revisions hopefully not a downgrade in any way on the facilities.

| The terrace seating arrangements for fans and players is much better in my opinion….
My only real concern was wether we’d run these plans past John Wilkin and st Helen’s for approval!

Ii think there’s 26 documents.
If you click down them to view there are some changes… from the original plans..
the one I noticed was the seating… there’s less seats for sports journalists…
There’s others but certainly nothing to panic about…

So long as there’s no reduction in spec. That would be taking the mickey.
