Re: Redevelopment application
There's sort of an update on this on the Telegraph website.
Stanley are making progress as they bid to secure funding for a new £1m development at the Crown Ground in the summer.
And there remains the possibility that the work could lead to the removal of some of the seats in the Clayton End, which had to be installed last summer to meet Football League requirements.
The latest development would include new dressing rooms and a roof on the Coppice Terrace, which would have to become all-seated to be eligible for funding from the Football Foundation.
Heys said: “It would have to be seats so we would have to put some extra terracing in, possibly on the Whinney Hill side, because we are mindful that we do need to keep the capacity over 5,000 to meet Football League rules.
“There may be a possibly of taking some seats out of the Clayton End.
“It’s something that we’re looking into. We know the fans want to stand.”
