I popped in to the Mem today and I can confirm the following.
The seats in the South Stand are still GREEN. Although they looked clean, possibly down to the rain we have had.
The South Stand shows no evidence of growing bigger
The pitch is looking VERY good.
The fence where the tractor was has been removed
Just thought I would say this as some people said they have new blue seats in the South Stand

The firm that provided our 'temporary' stands in the past also do the same for the tennis at Wimbledon. Things may start to happen after the tennis is over?

I spoke to theladyintheshop and she said they were still in talks about a new 'Guinness' stand.

If we do get the Guinness Stand back then I assume we'd be hiring it, therefore no sense in paying for it over the summer months.
Also I can't imagine the fence being removed if the stand isn't going back.

Are they planning on covering the open terracing?

I would hope they might at least redecorate the shocking Bristol Room. The fact that away fans are allowed in there too makes it even more embarrassing. There's so many little things that could be done to improve the match day experience.
So just to clarify,
Someone said the Guinness stand would be back.
Someone said that the South Stand seats would be blue.
Someone said that the portakabins between the Family Enclosure and the North Terrace were going.
Yet it appears that not much is actually going to happen.
Either people are just making things up or someone's handing out duff information.

It'll only take a few days maybe a week max to put a temporary stand up. It's basically scaffolding, sheets of metal and some seats.

There's about 8,000 temporary blue seats down at Nevil Road that are probably surplus to requirement after next Sunday?
