Yes, I raised the question of toilets on the North stand with Vasty. I wish that the club would hurry up with an answer, cos I'm chuffin busting!

Looks like by end of next week it will be almost done! That’s some speed for sure.

It looks a little smaller in height than I expected but I’m sure once it’s done it will look more filled out and be an excellent facility.

Does anyone know how the north stand works are getting on or if they have started?

It’s exciting to think that about another week and the body of the steelwork will be in place… obviously the canopy needs fitting (which I think will lift the front on height a little… )

Would still like more pictures though … surely the club are documenting the process for posterity!?

I’ll be honest I don’t think I did. I had a list but I did get a bit side tracked.

However from what I know, they will have to put some kind of facility in place. The law demands disabled facilities for a start.

JM was going to show me the full plans but we ran out of time. These apparently have detail on that those on the portal don’t. This is because they are replacing an existing structure and don’t require permission.

I’d assume a toilet block for the north-east corner was on them. But in all honesty I didn’t see them.

I’ll contact JM and ask as soon as possible.

You are the only person to say that, everyone else, myself included seem to think the opposite. Oh well.

If you look at Chris Kamara’s video and follow the roof line round you’ll see that the East stand is considerably higher than the North stand roof.
