I’m confused now. Are we …?

a) Going back to the Purslow plan (don’t think this is the case, but for completeness…)

b) Going ahead with the North Stand plans as they were

c) Going ahead with the North Stand but doing some alterations that won’t affect the capacity to any meaningful degree

d) Option C but it will add to the capacity?

The Calvo statement sounded like wouldn’t make any changes, but then the Tanswell article felt like it was saying we were making some bigger changes that’d add a couple of thousand extra seats

We need somebody to copy the Athletic article for us cheap uns', but the broad answer is nobody really knows

You’d imagine it’s ‘C’ just for the fact that if it were anything else, it would have been announced to placate those now unable to get tickets.

Diamond KN, thank you. He's published a fresh one a few minutes ago too.

The lower tier obviously sweeps around to the other stands as it is, will be interesting to how much or if any of it will remain open.
The Athletic piece yesterday said the capacity will be reduced by 5k, so that's not the entire stand capacity.

Not informing season ticket holders in the North Stand of the closure, and not informing local residents of the closure of Trinity Rd, closed for 7 months.....? All sounds a bit amateur hour tbh.

It says they have asked to shut the Trinity Road for 6 months for the development .  I dont think that has gone down well with residents
