Just because the work hasn't started at the ground yet doesn't mean that the fabrication works etc aren't already underway.

2 weeks to dig up the ground put new surface down, seats, crash barriers. if they do it in 2 weeks well done but they are pushing it a bit

OK if the fabrication is under way, mikefleet is still correct, using excavation equipment, etc it will be at a push to get all this done in 2 weeks. So please, if you know more, explain where this 2 weeks to complete came from. I also though the stand itself needed to be strengthend. Is this also being done.

Well the seating and the barriers will take 2 weeks to be fabricated and delivered alone.

And of course you know that this work hasn't been started yet?

There's no work needed on the stand, and from what I have been told the actual ground work required is minimal. With the plan being to move in the not too distant future, only enough work to pass the Safety Inspection will be done.

As far as I can see it will take about a week to make the ground repairs and a week to bolt down the seats and install the barriers. However I bow to Mikefleet's superior knowledge of the work required.

i do work for a construction company that does help, even though i am in IT

[thatguy]

So why install seats, if we only want to pass the safety inspection?

I though the idea of moving had faded, but obviously not, so, place your bets, where will we end up having a new stadium?

But you still have no idea of what work is planned so you cannot say how long it will take.

[mikefleet]

i do have a bit of a idea since coming ot this company

[thatguy]

We are hearing different things, through the grapevine and on here. So you tell us, what exactly is being done. This must include the leaking guttering in the north stand as well?

[Stu M]

I usually find the IT chaps at work struggle to get the IT bits done, never mind involve themselves in the company's other business... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

North stand? we now at charlton or somewhere else are we, if you mean the Northfleet end, dont know.

Mike, you're talking [****!!****].

You're in IT and can't design a better website than your current effort.

Therefore, I doubt your construction knowledge is any better.

As an example, I work in the rail industry & can speak French but I know sod all about how the French run their railways.

I dont work on the railways, but even I know that the french may be obnoxious, but there trains run better than ours, christ even the steam trains in india have a better service than ours.

[mikefleet]
