New ground

[GlenSTFC]

According to Rob Stevens on Twitter, work was supposed to commence today has been delayed... not sure why or for how long yet.

With deadlines very tight I wonder how much fat was built into the plan, i.e. can we catch up

[Irishadrian]

Depends how long the delay will be  Lets hope someone is finding out!

Anyone surprised?

Anyone surprised?

 

 

No

 

Certainly Steve Easterbrooke should know why there's a delay as he was promised to kept in the loop by Council Leader Rob Anderson.

 

Failing that perhaps someone who chats to Rob Anderson at our next game can find out?

[GlenSTFC]

You expect delays but not before construction starts! Anyway all will be well if workers are on site within a months time otherwise it's fair to say there will be small seeds of doubt.

I walked past the site last week and saw three or four blokes in suits wandering around with clipboards. I was going to ask them what they were doing but as I started to approach them they hurried away. I seem to have that effect on people.

The one thing you can guarantee in the whole new ground situation is that Rob Stevens will stir the crap whenever possible.

[GlenSTFC]

I don't know Rob or his 'style' but he's a journalist and it's to be expected for stories to get ramped up. But there's obviously a delay but I'm sure I'm not the only fan hoping it's nothing to worry about and in a months time we'll see activity on site and see our new home rise from the ground.

He seems a bit  better than whoever the Observer had covering us before but I'm inclined to agree and will wait until I hear something from the club or the council before throwing any toys out of prams.

MPR,they don't know what they are missing out on ! ha ha ha !   

[GlenSTFC]

That does seem very odd and unprofessional, why would they run away? Just politely say we can't answer your questions! Maybe they weren't suppose to be there? Really hope the club or council can release a statement soon to reassure us fans? Is it that much to ask to be given a definite start date is it?

[Big J R]

Where the local council and contractors are concerned, they will only ever release a statement when it is 'convenient'  for them to do so.

[RebelDelaney]

The Council could take a leaf out of our Managers approach by informing us what the situation is.

Also the Journalist would do us a bigger favour and more good by doing his job by investigating to find out what is goimg on.

MPR, your reputation obviously proceeds you

Went passed Arbour Vale today. As we passed the school there was a low loader delivering a big digger there.All along the allotment side there is fencing closing off part of the car park. Keep fingers crossed

[Ian]

I think we need to just wait until there's some news to be shared. Steve (Easterbrook) has always been incredibly communicative about the whole new ground process and we should trust him to share any news with us when there's something to share. All the time Steve is involved, I'm confident he'll do the right thing and tell us what's going on, whatever the situation.

[epicrebel]

 

 

They've sent in the big boys,.,.,.,.,.lol

 

As Ian has said no doubt Steve will let us know if or when something comes out.

[Reading Rebel]

Whilst I agree with what people have said it's a pity that we had to hear about the delay from Twitter.
