Matty H Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=h...l%3Den%26sa%3DN2002 and we're still peddling the same "redevelopement will start as soon as possible" 5 years on. Is the new EE still going ahead at the end of this season? Or are the assurances the latest in a long line that stretch back years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty H Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Well there was a report a few months back that said the demolition and subsequent rebuild of the EE could be achieved virtually during one end of season summer break. Sounds unrealistic to me, but then again I'm not a stadium builder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frome Valley Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Cant be much of a stand if it is to go up in a few months At the cost Fans should have been able to see this wonder of the West by now. Extra £100 on Atyeo/old East End prices in the poorer seats more on top if you want to access the corporate facilites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
