Did jm say that parts of north stand terrace could be reused -it’s all broken to me ?

yes I think they said the lower tier from the walk way

Ears???

If I’ve read it correctly some of the upper terrace at the back will be covered with a platform for refreshment outlets.

Up the Trin

With new gym facilities in the new East Stand and the new 4g pitch all training will be in house.

Up the Trin

Yes, it's in the plans if you visit the WMDC web site, I can give you the link if you need it. the lower section is actually pretty good, its level and no breaks. It's from the walkway up that it's getting new terracing and being re-profiled, a massive step forward.

Health and safety just gets stupid, if you was to go view a house near a stadium with the intention of purchasing you would have to be one thick nugget to complain about crowd noise

Are you sure that Gym Facilities are in the East Stand. I’ve just had another look at the Plans,
GA Floor plan, Level 1, dated 24th November 2020. These plans only show the Hospitality facilities. The plans for the Rollin Shack, do show the layout for a Gym, in what is now the concert room, with changing rooms/Showers on the lower floor.

I agree but they do, it's all part of the since of entitlement so many people have these days. So long as they get what they think they are entitled to sod over a hundred years of historical fact.

Yes you’re right gym facilities in what’s now the Rollin Shack think it’s for community use as well same with changing rooms. New East Stand has changing rooms and physio is that correct?

Up the Trin

Yes

Yes, the ground floor level seems well laid out. One thing that made me chuckle was, next to the Official’s changing room, is a room called “Doping Control Room”,

I believe that UKAD request every sporting facility needs a dedicated space for the random testing programme.

A galvanised bucket behind a curtain should be enough.

Pity they can't get it right that MC is the Chief Exec.......

I’ve just had a look at the Agenda for March 18th, our Application is Not being heard at this meeting, Perhaps MC recent comments re the start date could be a little optimistic. If you haven’t seen his comments, he is hopeful for the Floodlights to be replaced before September, work started on the new pitch and East Stand immediately the season ends, and it’s a 74 week build..

Our application is not being heard at the April 15th, meeting
The one below is being heard, and I’m wondering if this is one that, Our Stadium funding is dependent upon. If it is, then I find it strange that, John Minards has not asked trinity fans to support

20/01939/FUL
Full planning application for development and storage and distribution warehouse (Use Class Bicon_cool.gif with ancillary office, with new access arrangements from the existing employment estate link road, vehicular parking, hard standing, yards, drainage, landscaping and associated infrastructure and engineering works together with extension of the existing employment estate link road eastwards from the access to the Newcold building and alterations to Newmarket Lane.
Plot 4 Land North Of Newmarket Lane Stanley Wakefield

John Minards was on Down at Belle Vue podcast recently and I thought he'd said it was due to be heard in June

Perhaps this one is a forgone conclusion.....

Yeah, he did indeed. Unfortunate delay due to Covid restrictions.

Thanks for the reply, I know our application went in just before Christmas, I wasn’t expecting it to take six months or more for the hearing. I have no idea how the applications are arranged in date order for hearing, but I don’t understand why Covid should delay proceedings, all the meetings take place online, even joe public can watch and listen to the online hearings. Anyway, I’ll keep watching for the hearing date.

Standard local authority response I'm afraid. Seen so many examples from statutory authorities citing covid, failing to realise the rest of the construction world are impacted in the same way but are ploughing on.

Because ‘Covid’.

To be fair you can’t request a service or make a phone call without somebody blaming Covid for delays. It’s become a national excuse for a large number of businesses and organisations. You even have automated calls stating there may be delays due to Covid before your connected to a person. In some cases it may affect the operations of a business but in others it’s become an excuse to hide behind poor service imo ofcourse.

That said I hope we get some positive news on the stadium developments over the coming months!
