Open End Numb Legs Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 Surely somebody has pointed out that he might not have actually paid the going rate for it all as the club has asked retired trades to come along and 'keep their hand in'.

It’s still a temp stand ffs When we talk about the way they exaggerate figures on here, I think some people must think it's just "banter", then you see posts like this and wonder how long it will before it's a 5000 seater with indoor facilities that other clubs can only dream of. 4 minutes ago, RedRock said: That list excludes the all important 2019 ‘stadium’ improvement of fixing a fibreglass porch canopy over a (single) door entrance to one of the Club rooms.

Not sure on exact date though and their portal is abysmal for updating things. Either way they aren’t getting approval this side of September absolute best case.

As that’s documented I’d hope that the appropriate authorities deal with them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly third hand information but I'm told the capacity of the stand could be limited to approximately 1400 until permission is granted which may take up to a year and even then would not necessarily be for the requested number. Any breach of the safety certificate requirements could well result in the services of Mr Csoka being called upon. Is that the same Simon Csoka KC who represented Barton in his two trials? The club certainly keep him busy. No doubt he'll now be employed for a certain centre forward at the club who is in Court next week as well? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
