I tend to agree about Cas. Though in their defense they get decent crowds in the existing stadium, whereas we did need an improvement to make it more appealing.



The seats being added to the standing area down the side of the pitch will be make or break to me.

That could be great or a disaster.

Looks like our west terrace development will also need to incorporate a 4 by 4 m area for ac tv gantry..

really looking forward to seeing the plans for this…

I honestly would like to see (and think best) the below for the west stand. It wouldn’t cost the earth either.

- sort the terracing out below, new barriers installed, paintwork refreshed. The current structures in middle demolished and cleared. Cladding on rear full length and roof full length. Bar facility in the middle.



1F



Middle area - roof bar terrace area for 100-200 persons with bar facility upstairs. Either side of the 2-4 x executive boxes for the game housing approximately 10-15 persons each. With viewing balcony.



Potentially small storage and small office to the rear somewhere.



I do think we should try to add in some executive boxes to the design on the upper floor. Future proof if at some point we develop the South also.

I have to say I don't really buy into the rooftop thing.

If we do it I'm not going to be upset but I can't see us making it work.

They are overlooking old and run down terrace houses for a start and it won't be used for half the year.

Pretty sure it will over look the pitch

It may reduce the cost of lost balls that regularly end up in those terraces gardens

True, I’d be fine with a terrace rooftop but equally I’d be happy to see a row of 6-10 more executive boxes with viewing for each, the cladding to rear and roof full length with a bar incorporated (similar to the bopper bar or the small north stand one.

Fil's mrs won't be please though when one lands on her Gin & Tonic.

FIL won't have to buy her one then Wollo!



He'll be delighted!

We can not build higher than the T V gantry and the new West stand will start at the flats and go towards the North Stand .

Historically the the old West Stand was higher than the gantry so perhaps planning permission may allow something higher. That said something as high as the gantry would be more than ample fill length

Well, from what i have heard,the RFL are wanting a 14 team SL, and 12 teams each for Championship and 1st Division, not for next season,but hopefully by the season after, i.e.2026.
