I reckon next summer could see the roof of the main stand and possible extension being implemented, she almost said as much in her interview, also thought I read about some grants being available next summer.
I’m not sure if the Government Levelling up fund is available for football/ sports clubs but is available for cultural and community organisations, Blundell Park with its town location is definitely a community asset and maybe that’s what she was referring to. |

Ground improvements:
Putting the temporary bar back in the entrance to the Findus would help, the queues in the lower bar are horrendous at half-time.

They've said multiple times for now we are staying at BP and are looking at possible ways of investing in BP
Yeah I know, but they say that without really saying anything at all. Will we just keep replacing seats and painting the numbers for the next few years? I might sound ungrateful I know, and I really am grateful for everything they’ve done for this club, I’d just like to hear a tangible long term plan, like we’re looking at options for replacing the main or the findus or whatever. I don’t understand why it has to be all hush hush, same with the training ground. |

For the time being I think so. I think it was on the DN podcast they said at the back end of last season something along the lines of that there wasn't really the funding for a new ground at present and along with them both saying for a while that BP was enough for the time being I think we'll just see more investment in what we've got. Especially with what ls being spent on the training ground as well. |

At the fans forum I believe Andrew went a bit more in depth about what they're doing and the plans and I imagine with his background he's probably at the forefront of any discussions. Given he's the quieter of the 3 on social media etc is probably why it's an issue that's not really addressed as much as the others. |

I think it's because they are not going to announce what they would like to do, only what they are going to do once it's beyond certain. The training ground is the priority, and won't be cheap, but they won't announce their plans until all the contracts and permissions are done and dusted. I think once the training ground is squared away, they will concentrate on the future of BP. Sort the playing side first, then develop the ground into a fit state to showcase what will hopefully be a much more talented and competitive team. The alternative is plans that never come to fruition, and we all know how frustrating that is. |

It's all not good enough really . Look at Scunthorpe, they've closed , opened and closed their academy. They've moved to Ilkeston and back again . They're building a new ground, ready in 2 years , funded by an enabling development and government money .
