There's plenty of local expertise in electricity abstraction to call upon!
I laughed and fully understood.
It's a growth industry ;-)
Just checking, but do these people have a lofty attitude to gardening?

Does this mean the North Stand is DEFINITELY being upgraded? Thought it was yet to be confirmed.
Yeah the plan was always to start it after the South Stand, just start date was tbc...

No decision on the North Stand as yet, planning permission in place but no more than that

As I thought.

They're not going to fuck around imo. They'll start work, logistics permitting, as soon as the South Stand is complete.

An asymmetrical stadium would symbolise arrested ambition.

Like Blackburn in the 90s. Three brand new stands and a cow shed.

If, as someone on another thread has tried to belittle, we have opened up the new stand to take up the movers from level 2, then we will need a north stand rebuild to take up all those on the waiting list

You've captured the Metrolink Easement for the Marple line quite nicely on that one JRB

Been told there is quite a significant issue with regard to power capacity for the site and upgrades required which may impact upon any works to the North Stand. No start date imminent.

I suspect its more the collar site and other plans they are having issues with and that might impact the north stand in the meantime?

Exactly that.

It hints, rather significantly at two things

1. The final use of the collar site ( and others ) has been firmed up/decided.

2. It has become far more than the original plans envisaged.

Of course it was one of our best congas. I was in it!
