Disappointing if true and we have lost 500 seats. Though not quite sure how this could happen.

Is that a quote from John or a supporter?

A supporter who has said the new stand has 2000 seats. Apparently this has come from Minards.

This would be a dramatic change for sure. Has anybody heard anything.

I'm pretty sure JM said at the Shareholders meeting that it's 2,500+

The original plans have always shown

GA… 2133
Club Lounge 207
Media 77
Coaches. 14
Directors 50
Players. 26.
I suppose number of fan’s seats has always been around the 2000 mark.
I’ve not heard anything different, JM did mention to me at the recent shareholders meeting regarding seating, that seats would be red white and blue, in a random order,

It's also kinda the same story every time this comes up.
If we have an issue with capacity it can only be a good thing considering how many fans that would be.
As long as we meet IMG minimum numbers.

Ah… Facebook… the last bastion of truth, honest representation and fact… where would we be without Facebook?

The only thing Facebook is good for is keeping up with what ‘far flung’ friends and relatives are doing… and maybe what local bargains are to be had…

Spot on.
I’m a dinosaur but don’t know how the hell we lived without Facebook and twitter and the like.
Not for me.

Nothing wrong with Facebook. It's a great invention.
It's the people that use it that is the problem.

Well I’m afraid by that statement you’ve highlighted what is wrong with it! Some users are allowed to manipulate it to the own ends and that’s what’s fundamentally with it.
