Hi, Does anybody know if the proposed roof over the Stratton Bank is going ahead??. I haven't heard any news on this for months, seems to of gone quiet on this topic. The last I heard was when I saw Jed tweet about 3 months ago saying that he had put in planning permission to the council. Think it would be great with a roof over it personally.

Hopefully not, the stand should have been pulled down years ago.

Whilst this may be true, we would have ended up with a wooden fence as it's replacement. Like that bunch of tinpot wankers up the road (or down the road from me) |

Why would we want to roof a stand that town fans rarely use? Improve town end first, bank second

Depending on cost, sticking a roof on the bank would enable the Town End to be redone with little loss of revenue/atmosphere, and minimal problems -you used to sit/bought a season ticket for the TE? Well this season when it's being redone you're in the bank. Once the new TE is all done, everyone moves back in and then the Stratton Bank can be demolished/replaced/kept for away fans. It's not really up to being a 'main' stand, but it's that or stick TE'ers in t'arkells or DRS. |

Home fans being on the Stratton Bank (even temporarily while the Town End is 'done up') would, in my opinion, increase the atmosphere too...being closer to away fans and all..

I've only ever been on the bank when it was standing, not a bad view, would be great with a roof. Used to stand about 3/4 way back near to the old away corner  |

It was just an example. It has been discussed quite a few times on here. If they were to do the Town End up and house home fans on the Stratton Bank, it wouldn't have a negative impact on the current 'atmosphere'....quite the contrary, infact. |
