More great images on Twitter showing fantastic pitch and ground improvements.
Well done and massif thanks to Andy Holt :mosher:
 
I read today that Manchester City have donated their goalposts to us. Let's hope this is a good omen for next season.
 
Main stand next to Clayton end has been straighten up, 5 rows of seat 280 seats total with wooden panels behind it ready for windows in the future

No rumour Mab! It's on the fishy site under 'Hospitality Season Tickets'
Quote: 'Spend all home league match day or evenings with us in our glass fronted lounge, with fantastic views of the pitch.
Choose to watch the game from the warmth of the lounge, or from reserved guest seating on the half way line.
Blimey, they'll be adding prawn sarnies to the menu next! :D

:) Think that's on about what we have at the moment LS to be honest pal. Originally there was talk of relocating the changing room to that area of the ground . There is a Media suit going in for Dan and co :)
 
The windows you speak of wont be going in any time soon. The back of the stand has been straightened and rebuilt with a view to what might happen in the future.

The long term plan includes structure built all the way along the rear of the main stand, but there is no date set to it. As with all Andy's fluid plans it could happen tomorrow or in 5 years. It could be bigger or smaller than current plans. But all ground works now are being designed with the future in mind.
 
A window went in the club house circa 1990, and they used to let the big wigs sit in front of it but pull a curtain back behind then when he game started.
 
the windows were put in the club house for the use of sponsors and directors of both clubs, the concertina curtain was close from 1 o'clock to about 515 then it was opened, no pass you didn't get in.
