I sincerely hope you will not get the same seat in the new stand… somewhere near where it was maybe

Yes, I've got it almost in the same place.

We are now into the third week of October, JM in his latest interview said hopefully the steelworks would start being erected in October. Has anyone who passes BV regularly noticed any activity or girders being delivered on site. At the moment the Autumn weather is good, let’s hope the work on the steelwork starts soon.

Not noticed anything when I passed last week.

I went past yesterday, scaffolding up for screen, work ongoing in the North Stand, entrance to car park has had some trenches dug out. Still excavators on site no sign of steelwork as yet on the new stand

He didn't say what part of October though, we still have nearly two weeks of October left yet

Walked past on Sunday and had a look through the site entrance gate - looks like the drainage and utilities are being put in the ground (no expert). Like people have mentioned above the car park has a big trench running through most of it

Will be soon I'd think, once they start putting that stuff up it happens really quickly.

This will be the moment when to most people it will start to look real.

He didn’t say which October either. I wasn’t criticising, just being impatient for some updates.

With all the talk about the west stand does anyone know if before the start of next season it will have abit of a smarten up such as re painting / Maybe some boxing off work on the tv gantry building / terracing washed and tidied up etc. Think for what money that would require in the grand scheme of things would well be worth doing before the new east stand opens

Sounds like the sort of stuff that some willing volunteers could do ???
