[Bladeloyal]

surveying work going on down at the lane in preparation of building works ,

 

[Blade58]

Is that just the corner plot? (Shoreham St/Cherry St)

 

[JohnDenver]

The new fangled corner shop?

 

[Bladeloyal]

I'd have thought flats and new superstore corner of shoreham cherry street ,we shall see ,

Typical small-time mentality compared with our Masseev neighbours. It should have been covered with a tarpaulin.

Adds a bit of density to the footprint and will smarten up that area which is a bit grim. Get the kop extension started in my opinion

 

[JohnDenver]

Adds a bit of density to the footprint

Nowt worse than a sparse footprint.

 

[BigBed]

Transfer kitty is obviously burning a hole in Kevs pocket............gerrit spent quick, before he wants it in january!!!!!

 

[Old Eckingtonian]

If we have ambitions to return to the premier league,surely it would make sense to start re development of the kop asap.It would be easier to re locate fans to different areas of the ground whilst there is space to do so.Don't wait to get promoted and play in front of a reduced capacity when demand for tickets will be higher.

True, although I suspect that removing the roof supports and adding seats at the back can be done partly during the season and partly in the closed season without disrupting the fans

 

[Sean Thornton]

But if the Prince is taking over, who is paying for this? The company that owns the ground or Blades Leisure/the football club?

I think they managed to remove the roof supports from the away end over close season so it shouldn't be that much of a problem.

Not sure mate, I'll ask Sean Thornton, he'll know......

Oh.

just make the kop a hard hat area and take the remaining supports out - it'll be fine.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Oh.

Short on logic and instinct apparently.

 

[blade too long]

we could start the kop in the new year , and tell wednesday they cant have any tickets due to reduced capicity only allowing our season ticket holders in

When I mocked the Deathtrap for having thousands of condemned seats and a brand new swanky tarpaulin to improve the place, two stupid pigs on FaceTube reckon we've done the same at BTBDL. Can't say I've ever noticed a tarpaulin covering a whole stand, not like the Massive to fabricate something out of thin air now is it?!

Because they've only got microscopic tiny little one cell brains they think we just cladded the Lane end.

The new concourses, toilets, bars, removal of roof supports and extended roof completely slipped by them.

When the plans were submitted it was stated that work could start from the back while keeping the kop open on match days.

Now that would be a sight to see, SYP scratching their heads on how they could segregate the fans.

You're just being a little tinker! Don't worry, someone with vast experience in business and corporate affairs who has vast experience and can tell us all about his vast experience will be along to tell us of that vast experience and explain...... with vast experience.
