Looks like a firm called The County Group are doing it, I've never heard of these so I don't think they're local which disappoints me as I had hoped there would be conditions applied to the loan which meant the work had to go to local companies to keep the money in the town. Shame. Poor show from both club and council on that one if this is the case.
A quick look on Companycheck has revealed that, both of the Cardozas are directors of
County Midlands Ltd, and County Developments (Northampton) Ltd.

Oh go on then. .. something else to moan about without thinking first.

If you award the contract to your own business. . Then you're going to give a dammed good price and get absolute best value for every penny aren't you?

Yeah, you will get a good price.

For clarification - is that NTFC getting a good price or The County Group?

I'm just amazed that in the day we've fought for over such a long period. ... there is someone out there who instantly sees wrong doing in what the club is doing.

It's incredible.

I've seen stadium developments costs broken down to per individual seat costs.
Cardiffs millennium stadium ranked well above Wembley and so on.
2000 seats for £15000000 will give us the top priced seats?

Who was moaning and who has seen wrong? Betamax pointed out who the company were and I just thought that as we're a community club and as the money is coming from our council that the jobs should go to local firms first. I said this when the loan thing first came about and I say it again now it's happening.

Of course, when it's finished there will scrutiny in how the loan monies have been spent. The increase in capacity does look small at the moment. Are they actually building the East Stand from scratch or adding to the existing building (roof off)?

I've just been asked on the private message if I was sceptical about the redevelopment.

The answer is Im delighted with it and very thankful to our local council for faciliting what was required to get the thing moving.
My only reservation on proceedings was that at the end of this phase of development, we will be nowhere near to  a successful challenge on and getting into the championship and maintaining our position.

A 10,000 seater stadium makes a championship club not, so what's the contingency plan for having a ground big enough to welcome 3, 4 or 5000 visiting fans from the dozen or so local clubs that easily sell that many tickets week in week out?

Its my opinion that we are being extremely shortsighted in not adding just a few 1000 more seats, making us ready for the step up, which l believe will do soon.

Please don't take offence, this is just my view.

Any way must dash, got somewhere to be.
