Would you push for the redevelopment of the stand at the detriment of the playing squad? Whether that be settling for a lower class of player or selling one of our saleable assets to fund it?

It’s not really wooden, the plastic seats are on concrete bases. It was just condemned for being generally unsafe & if you saw behind the boards you’d see why. I don’t think the structure is safe either which makes a mockery of cameramen having to go into it to climb a ladder to get to the gantry.
It was all wood originally, and I think that the main structure is wood and there's a lot of wooden boarding. But it's more that I remember that wooden stands were condemned in general, and the Bishop Street was closed at the same time.

And btw a wheeled digger/plant machinery will sink into the pitch more than tracks unless supported.

A MTFC director sorry didn’t catch his name gave a interview saying it was his specialty in building stands as Steve Hymas was at building the training complex
This director said he was pushing for the stand to be refurbished and he would be making sure it would happen

The casual supporters will soon drop out when we lose a game or two. Not being negative, just putting that thought into the miix.

I think a lot of casual supporters have come here due to the success of Forest too and being unable to get tickets there.
The Clough factor has helped a few come and see us instead - whether that remains long-term we shall have to see, because watching it at home never beats being at an actual game - and if Forest go back down will tickets there become more easily available again in the Championship?

Too busy with his lonely heart's club band I would have thought.
