I think we could be looking at a delay to co-ordinate with other developments, rather than abandonment of the plans to move the golf stand. We'll see. I've no idea about the KC home derby - even the OP describes it only as being 'on the cards'.

Aye, but the the disruption will be more than worth it in the long run I expect.

So as we averaged 8,200 last year we would have no problems in all games especially as you lot only brought about 600 last year.
Officially (documentation wise) - our capacity is 10250. If the South Stand is moved to the south end of CP - the official working capacity would = 8750. Of course during the rebuild process of the Golf Stand, our capacity would be further diminished to something like 7500. If the Golf Stand isn't workable at all - our capacity would sit around 7500 + south terrace, which would be far from ideal.

I presume the 600 is just the tickets sold in the south. There were plenty of us in the golf stand.

Did you fall down a hole?
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.
