A proper update from the Club would be nice.

We could move to Rockingham Road for next season.  The pitch will suit our style of play, and the facilities will give everyone something to moan about....

Nothing will be announced until every t is crossed and every I is dotted...
Why would DC make an statement only to have this board catch fire if something went wrong.

That is a real shame and really tugs at the heartstrings. Just hope to god that an Imraan Ladak type never gets his hands on us.
Makes you thankful for David Cardoza.

Too true!! And how long has Tony Clarke been gone now? I remember him saying we were only a month away from building work starting!

Well done DC and NBC for finally helping the club get approval for ground expansion. Making the east stand the new main stand with boxes etc. makes sense... Although I refuse to believe it will happen until work starts

Maybe one day we'll be hearing about the Amazing East Stand Atmosphere!

Signs of progress at last, I hope. Wasn't the ground constructed in a modular way, so as to facilitate expansion? I wonder what the project plan timescale is for the building work (the stadium that is), and in which year it will actually start?

Now is a good time for the club to listen to what the fans want within reason. So we don't have years of complaints after.

I wonder if the modular way the ground was constructed 20 years ago is still the way grounds are built these days? Listening to the plans for the East Stand I wouldn't be surprised if the East Stand as it is now will be demolished to be replaced by a completely new structure.

From memory the North, South and East were all designed with that approach in mind, the West wasnt. Not sure if the East modular design took in housing the hospitality etc.

Hopefully we'll get an updated design with time scales soon.

Probably looking at this simplistically, but if the east stand is dismantled, could it not be re- utilised as a second tier to either the north or south stand, would help keep costs down.  Huh?

Apart from the length of the grass, that stadium looks exactly as it did the last time I attended a match there. I'm not joking either.

I'm not sure modular was the best description for it. I think it was only a case of being able to take the roof and building upwards.

If the corprate facilities are being moved to a new east stand then I'd like to see the executive restaurant/players lounge knocked into one big room and turned into a proper supporters bar similar to the long bar at the saints.
