Redevelopment Closer Than Ever?

[sussexcobbler]

Sorry about another thread regards redevelopment!

The club currently have a job going for box office and CRM manager, nothing really interesting in that! However in the job description the following job role requirements are listed:-

c) Working with the club Chairman on how ticketing and stadium entry will work post re-development.
d) Look at costs and benefits of implementing an access control system into the stadium. Looking at avenues open to increasing matchday revenue and cost savings by having a full or part system in place.

Am I reading too much into this, or doe this mean the stadium work is not far from kicking off???

You are looking at the reason to make the succesful applicant redundant if he/she manages to survive over 12 months.

Can anyone inform me of what a CRM manager role would involve. I've never heard the term before

CRM = customer relationship management software.  In the world of sales we use it to track opportunities so you don't lose track of potential business.  It does sales forecasting and reporting and all that kind of stuff.  Pretty boring but crucial to sales teams.

To be honest the whole redevelopment saga has dragged on so long now that I am bored witless by it.
By the time it does happen I will be too bored to celebrate a bright new era for the club

shouldnt this be in the The Official Summer Rumours Thread?!

In the latest video on Cobblers Player Cardoza says "we're really really close to making an announcement on the redevelopment but you just think you've done it and something else crops up, we're trying to finish off a couple of last minute bits and pieces and when we do then we'll have something to say". Will be interesting to see what this announcement reveals, if anything.

We are going to build a new ground on the site of the Greyfriers Bus station when it is knocked down.
The ground and especially the club shop will go a long way to ensuring that the regeneration of the town centre is continued by moving everything back inside the town centre bounderies.

Expansion bid for sixfields to be agreed

reading between the lines should be announced in a couple of weeks, as part of the new waterside regeneration zone. also interestingly, redevelopment of land near eagle drive that will be used as training pitches by NTFC, the complex will be named after Richard Butcher

Excellent news to wake up to.

[ClaretAndWhite]

Yup read that this morning, great news and just what the club needed, but would more new locals come down to the new ground? That ticketing should offer cheap £200 season tickets the first season to draw more people in

[The 12th Marquis of Sixfields]

I won't believe it until the first diggers move on, we've been down this road too many times before

[Elad]

Excellent news. This should have been agreed years ago. Shame on the local politicians who were arse fu*cked by Legal and General

[Bu-Bu-Buchanan]

Same as.

Everybody's jumping on the bandwagon now

Hope Cobblers development deal signed soon. @ntfc have had years of frustration from NBC particularly the last few. Well done to D Cardoza.

This.

This.

I saw a convoy of lorries carrying HUGE diggers travelling South down the M1 this morning, just north of Durham. Looks like it's definitely happening 

[County Cobbler]

This news is confirmed by the Council, so well done so far to David Cardoza. I like the idea of a joint training facility with the Saints at Delapre. Any news on what specific expansion of the stadium is happening alongside the shops, offices and hotel agreed?

Yes, well done DC. It's taken far too long, but it looks like it's finally happening. Well done to all concerned. As for the previous council regime. . . . hang your heads in shame!

[MrTickle]

I am sure I saw the new stadium plans years back with capacity and what the project will look like when it is finished. Wonder if these plans are still available or applicable?

still on offy site,
