Cowshed build!

Correct!! So why the need for an extra 900 seats when our average is around the 1500 mk.unless your thinking L1.
To me I would like to see a stand like the Clayton end go up on the Whitney hill side but just seats and a roof that's the same hight with TV gantry in the middle and a roof over the away end with what ever you like behind.! Not some think that's totally different like Whats on offer. But hat my opinion.
From the look of the video it looks like we will have to employ a 'Gardener' too!
Seriously though it looks really superb!
The video makes the other three sides and their concourses look good too.
I do hope that Andy is going to address these areas soon as they really need to be tidied, tarmaced etc....Oh, and the toilets need fixing!
Great stuff Andy!

At the moment the away end hold 1500 standing and 300 seats + 300 if required that's the other half of the whinney hill stand. so new stand will hold 1500 all seated so that means 900 standing spaces are been lost with the new stand being open at each endwould it not be better to either terrace both sides and increase the capacity, remember average away following for L1 is round the 1500 mark.
This new stand is only phase 1 has with any new development things will look strange to people without the full picture of any other changes I think the coppice end will be next and if left has a standing area could well become the home end and maybe the Clayton end could be fully seated I think when finished not just the ground but surrounding areas will be unrecognizable.
this is the best news I,ve heard for a while. really excited about the idea. any comparison to darlo,s 20,000 plus white elephant is totally off the mark. why can,t we stop moaning when there,s something positive on the horizon. I suppose if we get promoted there,ll be people moaning because we wont be playing Stevenage next year.
Moaning cos we're not playing Stevenage!! - that'll never happen - not in my lifetime
As someone else said, if it ever becomes necessary to increase home capacity, the Clayton End could revert to all standing. There aren't many visiting teams in League 1 or 2 who are likely to bring enough to fill a 1000 terrace and 750 seats (Rovers or Bolton maybe next year? 
), but we might just have to make some games all-ticket for visitors (as Mansfield already do for us 
).
I too was impressed by the landscaping (but natural cynicism overcame my excitement about that). I haven't seen it mentioned, but I assume the new build will include decent changing rooms?

As and when a planning application is registered with HBC, I for one will be writing in support of it. It's important that as many people do the same as there will inevitably be objections coming from neighbours.
if thats likely the club should be asking fans for support?
That's for sure, it will mean that they cannot see the games for free from the bedroom windows etc, It might also mean a few less balls in their gardens and conservatories.
P.S. I was under the impression that the planning application had already been submitted for the new stand.
Does submitted mean its registered? after all its HBC.
must have been a big shock to the residents of the new build to wake up one morning after they bought their houses to find a nasty evil football ground near their back gardens. if it bothered them in the first place they should have looked elsewhere. as for their little darlings hearing nasty language that could scar them for life I suggest they travel on a school bus or walk past a playground that would probably make coley blush. a load of(sorry I can,t print it here). signed disgusted of Keighley.
