I haven’t seen anything re planning for the South end/hospitality boxes, but when I attended Friday lunch last week there was some heavy work wagons and what looked like excavations behind the hospitality and cats bar, this could be part of current building work, or possibly investigating future building work, it’s all guess work at the moment.

I'm fairly certain nothing is being changed structurally at the South End. Could be wrong and out of date but that's how I understand it.

I e no idea. But if I were to indulge in some wishful thinking it would be more likely be for the west terrace. As far as I’m aware there are no imminent plans for the south end of the ground.

just on the south stand of the ground - will the boxes become redundant once the new stand is up? I guess the the hospitality area will move to the new stand? along with club offices etc.

The last idea was to keep some of the seating and turn the bar into family zone. The boxes and restaurant will stay and be and the boxes retained, but it's very fluid. Truth is there is a lot we can do with the boxes, Not least rent out the old club offices. It's a win/win whatever we do IMO.

The boxes are absolutely worth keeping.
It's a good match day experience in there that earns good money.

Speaking from experience you have to book early to avoid disappointment as they are usually fully booked, well worth the money.

Nice to see the outside metalwork sort of skeleton been fitted to the upper section, I assume the outer cladding will be attached to this, and also, you can see the concrete steps being put into position to the upper floor, onwards and upwards as they say
