And the plan to do the Town End up came from where?
Mr Whippy's head. There's a Futurama style collection in the Boardroom....even got McCoy, Venkman and Cooper.

I'm just surprised Reg knows about Futurama.

Reg knows about everything. He actually is one of the heads from Futurama with a T1 pipe to the Internet piping straight into his cerebral cortex

Could the stratton bank roof thing be with a view to moving home fans into it, out of the TE? Bigger than the TE, better views. Comparable facilities, but it has a licensed bar doesn't it?

It really wouldn't surprise me if the stand was deemed unsafe by the authorities in the not too distant future.

Nothing wrong with stand itself bar no roof Shrivvy road entrance facilities been derelict for years,toilets at back of stand are worse than the TE All of which wouldnt take too much cash to fix ( bar the roof )

I thought the point was that by putting a roof on it we could then give that to away fans & free up all of the Arkells for home fans and therefore remove the segregation.
Can't currently do that because you have to offer some covered seating to away fans.

At last, all of the home fans that want to come to the County Ground would get a seat. Oh wait. Are there (Police) cost savings made by removing segregation? If not, what's the point.

***BUMP*** I don’t make a habit of bumping 8 year old threads but wondered what the latest plan on this might be if Clem/Trust purchase TCG.
