Is it an Austin Ambassador?
Austin Ambassador? Austin fucking Ambassador!!! None of that Brummy Longbridge shite here - that's a classic Dagenham Dustbin otherwise known as Ford Cortina MkV (Cortina 80 for the nitpickers) - the very end of the line too, probably a Crusader model

I was thinking it was a Cortina at first but didn't realise they were still making them in 1983.
 
wasn't in the original plans - if you can find planning app 104315 it would have been in 104315-dpp-0005 and the North Stand Lower Tier area looks no different than the South Stand equivalent - having said that I think anything relating to the North Stand in those plans is now seriously outdated

to my laymans eyes, the footprint of an expanded north stand would take us close to the club shop if not on it?

actually not - at its deepest it would barely breach the first pavement line that encircles the ground - the stage would have to go but eyeballing a bing maps aerial I'd say the stand would take no more than one third of the space between the front of the shop and the back of the existing stand
 
Can't stand the suspense of waiting for the ground to be finished. I wish the club would just come out and say you know what, fuck it, we're gonna expand the remaining 3 sides and not bother with these surveys and shite. Or words to that effect!

there you go, shows you what i know!?
then the city square would obviously be compromised, the flow of people around the new stand on a match day would make it nonviable?

Perhaps I've missed something but I thought City Square being moved was a given?
