Your right Stanley may be the last League club to have that type of "scratting shed" on their ground. Still if a new stand means Stanley stay in the Football League, then the chairman/owner will have to get one built. He knows the cut off point, he has about 11 months to get the thing built.

As a footnote look what happened to poor old Cambridge City this week. They failed to get their ground up to the new Conference North standards (they had 2 years warning on this) so they have been knicked out and will now play in the British Gas Business Premier league next season. Stanley be warned.

I don't think you're telling us or the club anything that isn't already known. It's ok saying that the club will have to provide the extra seats, but if the money doesn't exist then it won't happen.

Yes temporary seating is accepted to my knowledge.

I was told that Ilyas Khan made a 4 million pound bid about a month back.

4 million pound ? What is he going to get for that? I don't think Stanley is worth even one million pound.

Whalley would have sold up for a quarter of that or less.

If Ilyas Khan has put in such a bid, the Eric would be a fool to pass it up. Somehow, I think this may be rumour and mischief making

Yeh but stanley is erics life and he will hold on to it as long as possible until hes out of money and knows he has to let the club go to someone who can put more money into it. Hopefully eric wont have to go , as he is such a great fan and chairman.

Re: Whinney Hill Stand

What a daft thread....

How does anyone on here know how much Eric would sell for? I thought we where football fans not on the board of directors. Next we'll be discussing dividends, share options & how we can reduce our corporation tax bill.

We should leave Eric & the board to sort this stuff out, the club have already had to dispel a rumour of administration that originated on here.........

I know you're not a fan of this message board but this time the rumour came from somewhere else, Dinglesmad in fact.
