The firm I work for has quoted for it and I believe it is around the 350K mentioned

I see. So remedial work then. Can’t be avoided I dare say. Having to shell out substantial sums just to sustain BP is going to become economically counter intuitive soon, surely.

It is. I’m more concerned about how much longer it’s going to go on too because doubtless another safety standard will be lurking around the corner.

How many, and to the tune of what revenue?
Polishing a turd isn’t it.


The work has to be done for safety reasons , if the main wooden bearer is replaced by a steel girder every other vertical support beam along the front of the stand could be removed .

They are being removed as they have been at the other end. The seats in the first 4/5 rows won’t be restricted views next season for anyone thinking of buying a season ticket.

I’d rather hoped we could be looking at modernising it and adding seats to increase capacity, not take some f@cking beams out for the best part of half a million quid. How could that make any sense in any regard?


The stand has had HSE improvement notices on it for at least 6 years, blame Fenty ffs and think before you speak 🤷

sodomist. I’m at the other end. So another season with a post dissecting the goal at the pontoon end.

I heard they were trying to do away with the police box and extend the Main stand to join up with the Pontoon, only a rumour and doubt it could be done in the close season anyway.
