He will be lucky if that happens, without anything to stop it he could be chasing the ball as it bounces down Muller Road, possibly rolling to a halt at.................IKEA.

Additionally, detailed analysis would normally be done to ensure anybody new development is not ‘overbearing’ on neighbouring properties. An alternative approach, to quote myself at a public inquiry ‘this development was designed on the back of a fag packet, the only problem being they didn’t even manage that’. Wonder which design method has been adopted for The Sags Cow Shed? Do you think they've considered how, many years ago, the raised level platform which forms the Memorial Ground was created ? Is the terra firma sub-structure suitable for the load bearing pillars needed if an "Atyeo" sized grandstand is to be constructed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stand will be two-tiered due to ground stability issues. The lower tier, the expensive tickets, subterranean viewing their ‘Championship ready’ sprinkler system. The upper tier, above ground, the cheap tickets with a view of a pillar, with ‘pillar and pitch glimpses’ for the lowest priced. That explanation would seem to fit nicely with their ‘pre-school child’ stand graphic and increased capacity claims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see that here will be any problems at all in doing that. Forget 'Row M' this stand might not have a Row A, or B, or C..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open End Numb Legs Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 My sister has finally got her hands on her first allotment this year at a brand new site. Last night she sent me some photos of their progress so far and as you are probably guessing there is an uncanny similarity with the photos above. She has free admission at the barrier. There were some delays with planning permission apparently...... I assume the bean canes and tomato plants are just out of shot at the Mem. Fortunately she doesn't have any drainage problems and her sprinklers are Championship ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
