Excellent stuff, and to think without the money left by Nigel Eady this would have been a lot more difficult to get done, he will certainly go down in history as will this day

I got mine earlier, did you verify your email? That was the only additional step.

Yeah, got the verification code but there was nowhere for me to actually put it...

From the Adver

‘ Once the sale has been completed, the work is set to begin almost immediately on adding a roof to the Stratton Bank.

This is expected to take 12 months and cost an estimated £1m. ’

Rob Angus talking live on local news saying planning applications will be worked asap but dosen't expect work to start for around 18 months.

I know that naming rights and sponsorship deals are extremely key to clubs like us at this level but it really should be permanently named ‘The Nigel Eady County Ground’

…anything else, just isn’t enough tbh

My personal opinion is that I don't like the idea of naming the stadium but either the townend or SB is a more fitting solution.

Town End is already named after Alan Mac (other two side stands already named after Town legends)
…and quite frankly as it stands the SB is dilapidated, run down, non functional shit hole for away fans (once or twice a season) not something fit for his name.

Those who knew him can advise, but if he always had the same seat at the CG, stick a statue in it so he can watch the Town forevermore.

The FA Cup against Wigan wasn't a bad last game for him, think we'd all take an FA cup win over Premier Leagur opposition.

Didn’t Miles (from everywhere) Storey score two? Also didn’t we get an award at the FA Cup final for performance of the tournament or some such thing?
