Looks like ground improvements have finally commenced. Getting the foundation work in early for why we lose Kemp in January, good work. On a serious front, clearly such behaviour is unacceptable, and lets hope they determine who caused it and deal with them, including picking up the repair costs, no? Although, surely the seats can simply be moved to out of commission and not sold for the remainder of the season if money is that tight - not like we will sell out the entire end, or that they make anyone actually sit in them. |

Yeah, move a few over from Stratton Bank. Not like that is going to be full for a while.

It’s probably a nice area and the locals don’t want the Blackbird Leys residents lowering the tone! |

Pretty sure they have quite a few spare, as they got 'new' ones from Liverpool? It pretty shit from our own fans though. |

Looks like ground improvements have finally commenced. Identify them and make them pay for the damage. You would hope they wouldn’t do this to their own homes so why their home stadium FFS |

if it's purposeful vandalism make em pay or chuck em out.
if it's crap seats going pop during a goal celebration or accidental then maybe not so clear cut

No not easy! And they have two years to get planning and build it before they are kicked out of the Kassam. Our stadium plans might be slow and steady but we’re in a much better place. |

I thought they had planning permission of sorts? I didn’t realise there was still so much to do before the groundwork. If they don’t have that yet, could be a tough sell to get a second stadium in a small city, where locals are not known for their love of the local football team.
That said, there can’t be much of anything in that area, if it goes ahead, I’m getting Colchester, out of town vibes, in soulless bowl form.

they might be starting with a one sided stadium, never mind three. |

Looks like ground improvements have finally commenced. 30year old plastic seats crack in crumbling stand shocker. Shoddy comms via the OSC. If they know for a fact its vandalism theyd have either witnesses or CCTV. If they are all breaking at once it suggests they are coming to the end of their life rather than some sort of seat boogeyman rampaging through the stand. All those freebies from Liverpool will come in handy at least. |
