So is it a 3-piece or a 2-piece? Will people have to take turns to sit on it and watch the telly? Will we be allowed to eat pizza on it, or will we have to go and sit at the table?

Fantastic! :-)

He is maybe 'planning' something whilst on holiday and then he can submit what he has 'planned' before the end of the month.:)

Re: £1.2 Million Ground Development

End of the month, so lets hope that with everything else going on, this has not been over looked..

Re: £1.2 Million Ground Development

This is a summary of what we have been told by the club:

Plans need to be sent in by the end of this month for ratification. Once that is done the money is sorted and the development will begin after the final game of the season.

The same "it will not cost the club a penny" assurance was repeated in the Telegraph: Stanley ground plans to go ahead (From Lancashire Telegraph)

Now let's look at what Shurm was told in person today ('Meeting Mr O'Neill and Rob' thread):

I never expected the people running the Club to be transparent ... name me one other set of fans who feel that their League Club is fully transparent and honest with them ... but this continued duplicity is simply staggering. :mad:

Re: £1.2 Million Ground Development

Hmmm I've been thinking about this it was Mr O'Neill I was talking to about this. The money is some sort of grant but I think they obviously want you to show some commitment as well but I suppose if Stanley say well we've knocked down the old terrace and levelled this land and that would have cost xyz maybe that counts instead of actually saying well here's a load of cash we have as well ???
