The ‘season ticket graphic’ is a blueprint, so yes that’s what I’m referring to. I am bothered about developments at the club I support yes, so that is a pointless question. What I was trying to get at is if these developments have been stopped/scaled back or put on hold it could actually be a positive indication of stadium news in the near future. Forgot we cannot question anything to do with the running of the club. This place has become so political. As you were. Storm in a tea cup. Or a normal, everyday tale of forumfolk.

It's all about the C word again. We have got a CEO, Chairman, Commercial Director, President & DS - Do any of them speak to each other ? What a shambles. I thought the whole point of erecting the away stand was that they could then open the whole of the South Stand to Gas fans & we could get nearer our capacity. Which would then mean more money through the turnstiles, more sausage rolls etc. But hey, everything is evolving & we shall be hearing some good news in about 4 & a half months now - I think the best we can hope for with this shower is another loan signing without having to sent one out. Still roll on 3 points on Sat, it due to rain too, so poor things from muff will get wet - note to self, get there early so I can stand in a dry part of the Thatchers end.

It's almost as if they say dates that they reckon are far enough in the future people will just forget about it. When were the 9 weeks up on the training ground application again?

This is exactly it, and they are right, fans do forget. Often people say "we don't like it but what can we do" and here is a prime example of something we can do for the greater good of Rovers. When directors or executives of the club make promises we have to hold them to account and if they don't keep to those promises we should speak out. By remaining silent out of a false sense of loyalty we are not helping the club but merely encouraging those people to think they can behave flippantly and will get away with it. If Wael, Steve, Martyn and Tom know they will be pulled up quickly if what they tell us is not well thought through or realistic then they are more likely to put in the time and effort to make sure it is. And if they do that they will start making better decisions which will not only help the club but it will help to improve our confidence in them.

Because fans moan if things change. One of the alternative sites, could be bigger enough for a stadium and training ground. Could be many reasons, why it's held up, that they can't talk about.

Assuming we sold any then what's happened to the season ticket holders who bought tickets in new Family Stand, have they been re-seated in the South/South West stands?

Rod Stewart I don’t want to talk about it how you broke my heart (wael and co)

Assuming we sold any then what's happened to the season ticket holders who bought tickets in new Family Stand, have they been re-seated in the South/South West stands? Me, my lad and dad are ST holders for the new family stand. I can confirm that for the previous home games this season we have been given tickets in the South Stand (along with complimentary pasty & drink vouchers as compensation - which i think is a nice touch btw) for each game. So far this week I have not received any communication from the club to say we won't be sat in the new stand on Saturday. That's not to say we won't as the week goes on but at this point we haven't. The club said the stand would take 3 days to put up so I assume it's still possible as long as it's starts tomorrow. But if there's a delay tbh I'm not that bothered as I know they will find us seats together somewhere for the match as they have not let us down so far. I really don't understand why some people are getting so worked up about this. It will be sorted soon I am sure, let's cut the club some slack shall we? I listened to the Gorringe on Gascast last night taking about all the projects they committed to this summer and I think they've actually done really well to get as much done as they have in the timeframe. UTG!

People are getting worked up because nothing that is promised is delivered either late or mostly not at all by our duplicitous owners

UTG! A reasonable and sensible post, many things are outside of us the fans control. If we were a community owned club I could understand some of the hand wringing, alas we are a commercially owned business and hence our power is limited. Mass walkouts and stay away fans could bring about change, but also destroy the very thing we profess to support. Buckle in and wait for any new ventures to happen is all we can realistically do - UTG

I have contacted TG to find out what is happening about the family stand and will get back to you all when I get some info. I assume that no info has been forthcoming yet? There may be a simple explanation. Trouble is that with no communication the void gets filled with all sorts of half truth/rumours etc. Really doesn’t help at all. Cheers. 😀

Cheers. 😀 I agree that it should be communicated. I am sure the explanation will be further delays and nothing sinister after all isn't it supposed to be 'paying for it's self' so not cost cutting is it, but will be used as a stick to beat the owners with no doubt
