To be fair material cost have come down a little, certainly from when work started on the East stand, but they will do well to get much out of the £14m beyond the main stand and all the ancillary work, especially if they have to factor in compensatory flood storage and infrastructure works to satisfy the EA objection. Digging a big hole and carting muck away costs a fair whack.

I said months ago that Cas will look at our ground and try to oneup us by building a main stand and tart the other three sides up with glorified long bus shelters with terracing under them, much like Salford but with a smaller grandstand

Indeed, it's the unglamorous stuff that tends to stack up, and then you wonder where most of the budget has gone.

John Minards said it cost £60,000 for the removal of the asbestos found at BV during building work, but also said when spending £10 million, perhaps the sixty grand wasn’t such a major impact. I think that sixty grand would easily have paid for the rain screens at both ends of the new stand, unfortunately, I can see some unhappy comments towards the club by supporters both home and away, during the rainy day games due to lack of screens. This isn’t a moan by me, just an unfortunate chain of events.

Indeed. The stadium developer is already on record - on the planning portal - as saying the required flood mitigations noted by the EA make the whole build undeliverable, with a drastic scaling down of the plans.

They are begging for the EA to drop their objection.

I don't begrudge Cas a nice new ground. I hope they sort it out.
Just after ours is complete and that they don't get to dodge all the cost and bureaucracy we had to go through.

Wonder if this is something Matt Ellis might do now

I'm not overly convinced that the side screens are needed.

I wouldn't say no to having them done, but the orientation of the ground means that the bad weather (predominantly) comes directly into the stand face on - from the West.

The stand doesn't go the full length of the pitch either. I'm assuming side screens would mean those sat in the back corner wouldn't have a full view of the pitch?
