Haaahaaa. What are you some sort of insider. If you are then you are on very thin ice posting here.

Apologies JohnB. You were spot on.

Good point. This may be how they're going to extend the pitch - by removing the boxes an re-working the stand - but it's not in any of the press releases and not clear from the presentation / renderings.

Sadly, I think they are actually reducing the seating by a row or two for the pitch increase.

I would like to see an extra tier on top but I suppose we will already have 35k. One thing they could do would be to put a new cantilever roof on the Arthur in the style of the new stand and put a small curved extra area of seating on top of the existing seating to match it up. Then the ground would have a degree of continuity and get rid of those old stanchions.

There will be an announcement on Monday. I think the majority will be very pleased with the plans for what the club is going to do.

I can't say what the plans are as that would put peoples jobs at jeopardy but not long to wait now.

This was what you said

I hope we at least modernise the Arthur. It really is a dismal stand.
When you are up the back you can hardly see the pitch.

I'm sure a tidy-up of the Arthur will come along a few years after the main stand is complete.

 


We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

They're taking out the gantry, which should help, but that's all for now.

Reckon this will take a lot longer than we hope if it happens at all.

Don't forget the PORTAKABINS

From what I have been told, the additional 8000 seats will be approved fairly easily but the actual look and logistics of the stadium is likely to hugely differ from the initial mock up video that is being shown.

3 years is about right.

No worries, I don't claim to have any knowledge on Palace's inner workings or transfer dealings but this is something I get the inside track on.
