I think it needs to be taken out of his hands before the council withdraw the excellent offer! North Korea has a more open policy Its not if its sensitive information and could be scuppered by industrial espionage. Just tell us what's gooin on.

I've said it a hundred times before and I'll say it again.
I won't believe a single thing I hear about the ground development until I physically see it happen before my eyes.
Why anyone would still fall for the bullsh*t after all these years is beyond me.

Really?? Without the "benefit" of Player I can't hear the Chairmans latest ramblings.......but I've got to say, another 2500 seats in the West Stand will look a bit weird!!
He says they didn't think they could get the conference centre in the west due to cost but that has now changed! No mention of East Stand but he made out that the West was now the focal point! I still think he's holding off for another reason... Until we know which division we are in!

It seems the plans have completely changed again, all seems to be going in the West Stand, East stand now staying as it is?
If this is the case, then surely the planning application would have to be re submitted? For quite a long time, i have fell into the "believe it when I see it category". It shouldnt be too long before one over excitable individual pops up accusing us of moaning again.

As Supporters of this club and ultimately the end users of the Stadium, what do we want to in regards to the redevelopment of sixfields? Its our money being loaned to the club, can we be trusted to know what's best for the clubs and its long term future?. I propose Random and Shoemaker as joint project managers, seconded?

Considering the date, could this be a leg pull? 😯😱

In fairness, unless I got the wrong end of the stick DC said that boxes will ALSO be in the West Stand, so that would suggest the capacity will still be increased in the East Stand with boxes. Obviously, without seeing the plans I am only going on what he appeared to say, with conference facilities also attached to the West Stand.
All will become clear, in the near future. However, the prices for the East Stand season ticket at £380 for an adult also suggests a major overhaul of this stand, because these now are the same price as the West Stand. I don't believe this was the case this season, because it was a family stand it had reduced prices, but maybe a season ticket holder in the East can confirm if this is correct or not.

Big Dave doesn't strike me as the type of guy who pulls legs. If it matters to his plans which division we are in then I'd say he's just playing for time.

But putting boxes into the West (without increasing the size of the stand,) will surely reduce the overall capacity of that stand, wouldn't it? Will the finished stadium even reach a 10,000 capacity?

At the St Crispin and St Edmunds developments the main contractors promised to develop along with their new homes the main old structures turning them into luxury flats..neither were touched after the main houses were built and both structures were left in absolute ruins! Not saying that's ever going to happen at Sixfields but if the East stand is not developed as proposed with the conferencing centre behind but masses of houses springing up left right and centre, then I will suspect it to being something similar?
Boxes in west stand would mean jack shiit over in the East.
Bloody shame we haven't got a supporters trust to demand as to what the frig is going on.
Relegation is never a good time to try and bury shiite news!

I'm sorry but like I've said elsewhere, that's not what Cardoza is saying on player, there's going to be MORE money spent on the ground and the West Stand improvements are on top of those planned for the East.

No "main houses" have been built at St Edmunds. It is still a ruin.

East stand plans have definitely changed - Only 6 rows to be added for next season and no conference center. Boxes are planned for the West along with the new conference center, although we quite clearly don't have planning permission for that. Smacks of stalling tactics / playing for time / finding excuses not to actually go ahead with the whole thing. We'll see what happens...

They are selling tickets for the extra 6 rows in the East Stand for next season so I assume they still plan to have that work completed. So maybe work has begun, maybe it hasn't. But it's definitely a change of plan either way.
