Perhaps the Site Manager would care to explain the catastrophic state of Webcam 2 viewing. Or maybe the guy from Greens on Screen for that matter

Nool will be along shortly with his poncho bollacks doubtless

Need a full on immersion suit to sit in the lower mayflower not a poncho.

Brilliant

Sure as hell wont be any Directors, Pioneers or leg shaggers sitting on that terrace

They've moved the Directors seating off of the bottom terrace?

When did that happen?

No they haven’t. They’re still there.

Webcam 1 back up and working.

Looking at the outside of the new TV gantry they have only increase the size to fix in a set of steps from inside of the stand leading up from one of block 12 steps , The size of the gantry on the plans were showing twice the size this has and with two sets of steps one on each side of block 12.  Might do that next summer

webcam 1 gone again

Dont know why they bother with 2 and 3. 1 when it works looks the same day after day

2 looks like it did three months ago and 3 is a ludicrous position to start with

Relocate number 3 Bungo so people can see the whole of the rear of the Grandstand

Mankover now officially overdue. Original claims of start of 19/20 season.
Effectively its already 6 months late because work started as GOS doubtless annoyed the club by reminding everyone in February 2018 with photographs not the club claimed date of August 2018 with contracts signing

Lets be generous and say today instead. Bungos already said 1.5 months on top of any official handover for internal fitting out.

I'll stick with end of February 2020 two whole years after it started
3 sides of ground completed in 6 months.....1 side of ground tick tock.
Is Bungo on borrowed time. Is the P45 awaiting.

Better late than never I totally agree it will be a massive improvement but could have been so much more

Brent is to blame for the whole fiasco.

If SH had been in the seat 12 months earlier the whole thing would probably have been shit canned and we would have had something completely different.

Even though the locust is gone his legacy will live pretty much forever.

I'm hoping it will be finished by the time we play those East Deb'n, slack-jawed, frog-eyed rednecks in March. It would be our first full house playing them feckers for years. Imagine the noise/atmosphere!

Will be in for a shock and finish earlier, He has put in a big span on finish by saying last quarter then which month

When will the GT bar be ready?

Dont be surprised to see the "commercial" aspects dining, conference etc etc completed well in front of bums on seats in the stands

Who knows already 13 months late. Maybe next year

Yeah agree Punchy if Hallett had been in the hot seat two years earlier suspect we'd have a wrap around stadium completed.
Have you noticed how Newell is now constantly popping at the quality of the build its just incessant now his lord and master has been ousted from the club

I would have thought that several thousand 'bums on seats' and the money they spend on the day would be the most "commercial" of all the grandstands commercial enterprises?

They are working in the fans bar up to 7pm every night, they have a generate by the sound of it running outside the bar.

I wouldn't fancy being their accountant. Any computer crunching the rapidly rising debt will develop an immediate rash

I wonder if there will be a big push if the good weather carries on to get it all open for the new years day game.

I thought i seen a lorry unloading  green seats the other night

Seats been moved to the top of the Mayflower terrace

Those seats black or green, am I going colourblind?

They are on the side of dark green

Hope they intend to put a top coat of a different colour on that front elevation in front of those seats. Battleship grey looks fine on the Navys destroyers but not at a football ground
