It was quiet v Palace but noisy v Bournemouth of the games I attended.

On TV the other league games prior to Wolves sounded pretty good as well. Europa league seems to be a bit quiet too.

Let me get this straight, so it was quiet during a 0-3 defeat, and noisy during a 4-0 victory?

Cant wait for this  to be all done. A 50k stadium and a warehouse that hosts events. Exciting  times

yes also think it will really enclose the ground and make the atmosphere even better

I hope so. The atmosphere  wasnt great yesterday  considering  wolves is a bit of a 'derby'

The lack of home saturday afternoon/evening games does have a impact
For a fair proportion of the match Wolves had a narrow back 5 with 4 just in front and we passed it around slowly. When the excitement is minimal the crowd does go quiet. Rather that then the orchestrated racket many European clubs go for.

I mistook the old plans for a recent development

We'd like to go to town but we can't risk it.

I have no idea of the credibility but I’ve been told that they are thinking about going back to the Purslow plan. (For the stand, not the Villa Live thing).

That's what I was looking at I think. There's fresh plans with some updates for BCC that went in Wednesday that seem to show the club shop going. PrimeTimeVilla on Twitter is where I saw it.

Saw his tweet but I’ve checked both the applications on the BCC website and there are no recent documents posted so I’m wondering if he’s found an old pic?

I wasn't expecting this. Maybe the changes to PSR/SCR/FFP or whatever it is these days makes the full rebuild viable again?

I hope so, the full rebuild was by far the better option

There isn't time to do the Purslow plan before the Euros is there?

Found what he’s basing the claim on now. Agents have applied to vary the conditions for the building of the Warehouse. In support of this there is a report from Geo-environmental consultants. They have used the pic he is claiming the Club are using. I suspect they used old illustrations from when the plans for the Warehouse were first made.

In short there is no evidence we are reverting to the Purslow plan.

We'd still have two full summers if we wanted, either way we haven't much time

The Purslow plan involves demolishing the stand. The whole idea of the current design is for the stand to remain open during construction therefore reducing the loss in revenue and not having to play hugely important games with a building site behind the goal instead of fans. This is what's happening there's no chance of them reverting to Purslow design.
