But, but, but, how can this be?
We all know that Hudgell lies about all stadium development plans...
Seriously, great news. Once it's finished and packed out, it's going to be truly awesomesauce.
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.

Well, he did say in Rovers franchise application in 2008 that this bit would already be done for the 2009 season and by now you'd have had a 14,000 capacity for a full season. Oh, apart from that, you mean.

It really is. Going back to 2008 when you averaged 8,552 IIRC, add on this "packed out" East Stand for a further 1,600, bingo, there's the magic 10,000. With a few quid left over for a little goose swing with mirror and bell in the East Stand rafters. Happy days.

A cold-blooded fish? You know how sentimental I am, a chinchilla or fluffy rabbit at least. I think you meant you're not a budgie yet. It could be your next incarnation. I went for an otter, but budgies talk, plus they get named Cookie and allowed to live in a nice cage in Rovers supporters homes. Not a bad retirement tbh.

This is a thread about extending the east stand at Craven Park The purpose of an extension is to accomodate increased attendances, so it's absolutely 100% on topic to discuss by how many (the budgie bit was a bit tenuous, I concede) . Stop de-railing it.
