Possibly, but that offer doesn't preclude it becoming LED boards later. They don't need to be in all year to count on the grading.
You couldn't sell them them other way round - "buy some LED advertising...but we don't know when they'll defo be in, please be happy with a static board for the foreseeable..."

Hopefully there will be LED boards up for the extra points before the grading comes round. I’m sure Ellis said this would be done in a fairly recent article.
Hopefully the take up is good. I was actually quite surprised that a few players like Lachlan Walmsley still are available for sponsorship for the season.
Does anyone know what the exact capacity is of the North Terrace? (and the West Terrace, for that matter?)
I'm wondering what the main restriction is on the capacity of the North terrace, as it certainly doesn't seem to be physical space. I went there a couple of times last season when it was a "capacity" crowd of 4710, and there was loads of room all around me.
Is it the state of the terrace? Number of crash barriers? Gangways? Number of exit points?
I'm just hoping there are some simple/cheap(ish) fixes that could raise the capaity, rather than having to have any major rebuild of the terrace. (as I quite liked it in there, and I haven't got a season ticket!)

Good question I guess but the new upper tier could likely be only capped due to things such as weight tolerance (with it being elevated) and fire evacuation routes.
The lower I’m not so sure but certainly seems like more could’ve fit in there at some points last season. There will be reasons though.

I see Orchard Interiors are moving sticks. Wonder if the land is coming up for sale. Might be worth purchasing it to give more frontage onto the main road.

Could do with that and the two semis flattening to improve the frontage.

Or build a club gymnasium/performance facility. Or if it’s that small building utilise that as a club shop and have the branding etc.
If your going to be buying houses/land for a hefty figure for parking or aesthetics then you’d be better off investing in the west stand or completing refurb of the south west to the gym over 2 floors etc imo.
