There are plans afoot for large parts of the stadium ,both inside and out to be redeveloped, let’s not forget about the kitchen/bed shop on donny rd , that is going to blow you away when it’s redeveloped . We are very very lucky to have a family that are mad passionate about our club ,and will stop at nothing ,and have the financial clout to realise those ambitions that will drive this club to the next level ,and beyond anything we could ever have envisaged or hoped for .

I’ve just watched the full video of Sunday’s game and noticed something that I didn’t at the game.
If you look closely at the ground floor of the South End boxes immediately behind the goal posts, there seems to be a structure attached to the front of the stand, Has anyone else noticed this or know what it is?

I've heard that the whole pitch has been ripped up.....so we can install under-soil heating

I think the work on the pitch is top dressing to help drainage plus what use is under soil heating in Summer.

If it’s the company who we purchased the boards from then yes. Any amount of investment from them would be an offset of the cost paid. I can’t wait to see the LED boards up and what upgrades will be in place for start of the season. The south stand terracing could really offer something unique to SL if it can be linked to the ground floor of the boxes and made open plan for a social area, tvs, refreshments, music etc. it could be like another hospitality area that seats hundreds out of match day and during match day it could cater for hundreds.
