That'll be the temporary hording/screen that surrounds most building/demolition sites these days.

Good point. Didn't think about that! At least it's a sign of some sort of progress. They say no news is good news, but it would be nice to find something out soon.

The cost of the demolition/rebuild at the last estimate was £1.9 mill ?
Whatever happened to quotations, especially fixed quotations these days ?
Quotations, are of course, to be found in various works called "Books Of Quotations".
Here's a quotation of the cuff . . . " Never underestimate the value of a quotation."
The financial consequences of the Grandstand demolition/rebuild on the playing budget is long term. Ask this question : What is the length of a standard mortgage ?

The name of the new stand has been decided. "Bristows Bench" I quite like it and its a fitting tribute to a good man who's helped this club alot.
