The two faced kneejerk boys are quickly regurgitating their agendas!
When DC has to stay silent when advised by the lawyers they moan. Now he has made a statement even before the contracts are finalised next week they moan!

Please play your politics elsewhere!
During 2015 I believe NTFC will have the best facilities in the history of the club, with a Conference Centre and hotel to follow. This whilst as Chairman providing a healthy budget for the encumbent manager!
The usual dozen 'trolls' will blindly preach their surmons on the Hotelenders whilst acheiving nothing for the benefit of the Cobblers.

I'll enjoy the opportunity DC will eventually provide to offer a future for the club I support!

Two faced? Hardly.

The way I see it, it should be easy to get that amount of boxes. There are 2 levels where you can put the boxes in, you put 7 in the lower level with 7 above them. Some might not have balconies, so they are the cheap seats !

I like DC but....

He didn't sound like he had just won a court case so I imagine it's one of those where the legal guys are the only winners.  He also rather worryingly sounded like he wasn't overly impressed with what he us now about to deliver for an East stand.  Sounded like someone who is going to make the best of a bad job so god knows what involvement he's had so far.

I know it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea but wouldn't Cardozas time at the helm and the inside story make a good book.  I'd love to hear the truth of whats happened from the people involved since he came in such as board members, councillors, players, managers etc.

What do you think we've been doing, Sherlock? Roll Eyes

Moaning, whining and sniping at every opportunity.

There. I think that covers it.

So even I'm bored now so to summerise -

Jolly, South Beds and a few others think anything and everything that DC does is sh!te - and express the same in lengthy repetitive missives
Cricket thinks they are talking sh!te and rarely wastes an opportunity to tell them so.
Many agree with Jolly and South Beds but express it in shorter terms, occasionally witty one liners - although frequently not.
Some profess to be in the "know"
Marvo looks on the bright side of life with statistics always at hand (& we all know about statistics and dammed lies).
Some sit on the fence because they don't know.
Some sit on the fence so they can appear wise after the event.

.....but the only reality after all these words is not a single post will change the outcome.

How the f@ck can they still not know how many boxes are going in?
 

This has been the most concerning factor all along. I honestly don't believe we have known what we are building, which is incredible. I understand that big projects have problems and changes along the way but you at least know what the end goal is before you start!! I think the changing pictures highlight that this was never really set out beforehand. We don't know what the dispute has been but it clearly can't just be attributable to that as it's never been apparent or transparent from the start.
It could be a case that once the loan was rubber stamped we've rushed in too quick. I know we've had 10 years to plan it but it's a different level when you start surveying and paying for plans to be drawn up.
However sh*t the new bus station is, I'm sure they knew what they were building from the get go, the same with the train station.

Maybe the most worrying development is the fact that the club are now project managing it themselves!

Which one are you? I'll join you in the bored camp.  Wink
However, very much looking forward to it being finished in time to concentrate on relegation again.

So as I can make out the new plan seems to be to extend the boxes across the full length of the stand and add the additional seats for these to take capacity to 8k. Then that will be it yes DC has mentioned the North and South extensions but has indicated no intention to actually doing these. The hotel will be built then that will be our lot for another 20 years.
A vast improvement on what we had but maybe not what we had all hoped for.

There's an Arsenal fan others have filmed and more and more of his comments are being seen on youtube, and not because he has anything objective to say. He gives undying support to Arsene Wenger. Even when Wenger admits to the occasional mistake or things are undoubtedly going wrong this bloke won't hear or see it all. He will never have a wrong word said about the man because he worships him and probably has a man crush that he doesn't want to admit to.
I reckon you two could have been parted at birth but you drew the short straw and ended up with Cardoza. Unlucky.

Apparently the East Stand will now look "very close to" the original plan.

Do you remember that plan? It was the one you all liked.

I really liked the original plans for the East Stand, that was a proper stand, Championship standard, very good.

The new East Stand will look like a very poor cousin of the original plan.

Such a shame but there you go.

Well it will have boxes all the way across like the original just half as many seats as originally shown. Still a vast improvement on what we had just not what many had hoped for.

I agree and if this leads to a quicker path to extending the North and South stands then that'll be a real bonus.

Yes that would be fantastic but I'm an optimist and even I don't expect any work on the North or South stands in the near future. I think what ever happens in the East is our lot so I'm looking forward to it finally getting finished.
