Plans will show:

• the general layout of the refurbished and extended grandstand;
• locations and proposed sizes of new ancillary buildings, including the players’ dressing-room, club shop and bars;
• sections through the building, showing how the works will affect the existing structure and extend it to provide greatly improved facilities;
• rendered computer-generated images, giving a snapshot of what the buildings will look like when complete;
• future stages of the project which will eventually see the capacity to more than 20,000.

The future stages bit sounds interesting :thumbs:. I wonder if that means the initial build won't be 20,000, or that the future build will take it from 20,000 to something more... :eh:

Extended Grandstand? Guess this means at the back for conference facilities as opposed to width wise.

I would like to see 'something' in that big corner between the Grandstand and BPE.

Another big mural? Video screen? Advertisements?

I like the way the club has linked the grandstand display with the Heritage Exhibition which should help attract more fans to each event, especially as it's a weekend when people have free time.
I suppose once the grandstand plans are on display at Home Park they will also be published on the club website.

Out of curiosity what is the house in between the barn park end and the mayflower actually used for?

Sounds like an initial development with an additional phase to increase capacity if needed. Presumably this means no corners for now but I have no problem with that personally. It would be a relatively non intrusive additional bit of work if needed in the future.

Can't wait to see the plans

Is there any indication of the capacity when the initial refurbishment is complete. It would appear it will be less than the promised 20,000 which is disappointing.

I'm sure we'll find out tomorrow. And I'm not sure we were promised 20k, it was certainly mentioned and implied.

Regardless, it's going to be roughly 20k purely by virtue of the fact that it was over 20k when it was last fully seated.

I hope the wording of the article means that it will be c20k initially, then a future phase would take it to 'more than 20k'.

Where was that promised?
