Was there talk of also covering the back of the stand as well? so its closed in?

not sure if I have that right

FWIW, I think the North stand is in a state of flux. How it ends up depends on how well the North stand goes. If there are no issues then they can do more to tart up the North stand, if we hit snags, well it will be the minimum, but yes that's the idea.

Talking of which Mr Carter said that they had unearthed another pile of asbestos which was costing £60K to have it removed, surprised nobody has mentioned this before.

Why are you surprised. Where and when was it announced about this pile of asbestos? If it was at the Monday night forum, then only those in attendance would know about it. Again, poor communication from the club.

I don't see what the issue is......
Do you want the club to explain how they spend every single penny?
I'm sure that as the work goes on, that they will find things they didn't expect too - the stand has been up for 2,000 years for gods sake.
I'd be happy to wait until its finished and then they can fill us in about all the costs.......

You may be right, let’s just wait until the club are asking for further monies from the fans for example the suggested shares scheme. Perhaps then the club will start communicating, but we might have to wait a while until they even get the club website sorted. Something is wrong within the club, I don’t know if it’s the Generals or the troops.

You better mention the mystery water pipe that was unearthed that was part of that unforeseen expense.

Perfect example, though I’d assume there is a contingency for this kind of thing, but ouch.
