Regarding the issue of nearby residents, how anybody could object a new modern tastefully designed and constructed stand when it replaces a hotchpotch collection of rusty iron and rotting timber topped with barbed wire is beyond me.
Assuming we ever get that far I am sure it will be within all the planning laws regarding height etc.and if it is part of a wider stadium re-build it would enhance the area where they live.

As mentioned above, people could object based on having their view obstructed (or even changed) or their garden/house being in shade. They could object to the building work. Or the greater footfall on match days. When one club built a new stand (it might have been Liverpool) it messed up the entire street's TV reception and the club had to pay for all of them to subscribe to Sky to get their TV back. People will complain about bloody anything, especially when it involves their homes and change.

What you say is true, but all objections can be mitigated against with a sympathetic planning application, a lot of goodwill from the owners and a realistic approach from residents. Assuming all planning criteria is met, and any objections addressed as reasonably as possible even our council should be able to see the benefit for all... I wonder how many years hence this will still be a Fishy thread?

I believe that when the Findus (or whatever it's called today) was built, it messed up TV reception and the club had to install signal boosters to solve the problem.

I would imagine the major objection for the long-term would the be the impact on daylight, or loss of it, as a result of any new stand. I would also guess that navigating that would be a piece of urine for a remotely skilled architect.

I don't think it would, unless large parts of it were made of glass. Could create an extra revenue stream by growing tomatoes under it though

I guess that because our name was/is rarely mentioned on national TV I remember that this was discussed on 'Saint & Greavsie' who thought it was a wonderful gesture by the club. - eh?

It wouldn't need to be made of glass. It would just need to be no higher than what the current height is. The roof is quite high in the Main Stand when you consider the rows of seats in it, surely a complete rebuild would either have a lower roof with the same depth of seat rows. Or the same height but better use of the space to create more rows.
