Good news if it’s now finished and signed off

I am intrigued by Matt Ellis saying he wasn’t happy with some aspects of the stand and that he would be putting those things right. What things was he referring to, does anyone know?

Snags?

I bought some tickets for the Matty Ashurst testimonial game v Wigan a few weeks back but only just noticed that they state seated. I presume this means they expect less than 2,500 attendance and that those of us who go will all be forced to sit in there rather than in our usual preferred locations.

From what I heard it was just small improvements.
Like the changing rooms still had old fashioned benches and he wanted to upgrade them.

Don't know though. Haven't been inside.

This is what I heard from someone who is close to the site. Was small bits in the changing rooms and weirdly of all the badge on the front of the stand! there was a slight change to that as well.

Someone on the Cas forum was asking if the car park behind the East stand had EV charging points, has it? Does anyone know?

Tell them it's got 20. Allegedly. Alternatively, tell them to sod off as they're probably looking for an issue to slag us off.

It has and has enough to conform to minimum requirements set out by current building regs

I assume it's not free to anyone that polls up?

That’s not quite how EV charging works, depends on which EV posts they are but could be ID activated, smart card activated or credit card activated for the general use spaces next to the disabled parking bays
I believe there are also a couple of EV spaces next to the rolling shack for employees use.
