Yeah what was that all about?!? He can't be much of a Gashead if he doesn't know what the ground looks like. He said although he was a gashead he felt uneasy about things so was supportive of others who wanted a site visit. just wanted to show a bit of balance I guess. He was one of the three that voted in favour of the site visit. I think Richard Eddy, Conrad the planning officer and Simone Wilding kept control and had all the answers. John Greater made that point regarding a site visit. As a self declared gashead, he would/should have known the layout and impact more than anyone on the committee. If anyone is in his constituency, I'd encourage you to ask him why he hadn't already taken a look? Anyway, the motion for the site visit was defeated 6:3, not on party lines. Once the site visit was declined, he voted in favour anyway.
I'd have to say I thought Richard Eddy did a really good job in the chair, balancing the complaints with the pragmatic need to focus on material planning matters. The 8 in favour, 1 abstention, 0 against vote is heartening, especially as 2 of the Green party cllrs voted in favour.
Although Emma Edwards brought forward the local's concerns, I thought she also adopted a more conciliatory tone of better engagement with the Club.
For anyone with the time or inclination to watch the proceedings, they are here:

I'm sure he was only in favour to make it look as though he was being professional having declared he was a Gashead

Are we allowed to refer to someone as Lady these days? Or guy? Mind you calling someone a Tory...... I call the missus a bitch, that seems to be perfectly acceptable ð How is the black eye these days?

I canât wait to sit in it. I hope our friends in Alton road donât mind if I bring a fkin big drum along. Bang bang bang let me hear you say Blue TitsâĶâĶBLUE TITS. I think one of the concerns was fans banging on the metalwork making lots of noise, no idea how this will be dealt with. Suppose a drum in the ground will be fine rather than the stand actually being a drum. Anyone got an original instrument? some blues played on a harmonica

Perhaps it is a condition that the Planning Officer can impose?

Now the club dont have to pretend they arent already building the stand, hopefully we can get some official progress reports and photos from the club. Rather than the dodgy ones posted on FB and X!

Looking at the picture that corner section will most probably be redone when the redo the South Stand as I've said before it just looks odd The corner and the whole south-west section looks to have been designed to provide more seats inside a lower structure than the temporary stands - probably to make sure there were no planning issues with height/shadows. Whilst it's higher at the front it's much lower as it gets nearer the houses meaning the sunlight report raised no issues for those houses on the West side of the ground.
