In other toilet news when St Pauli hosted Hansa Rostock the other week they closed their usual toilets because Rostock Ultras would always smash them up. They did however put portaloos on for the visiting supporters. Pauli offered €1,000 to Hansa's youth set up for every portaloo not smashed up. Creative thinking! How many portaloos survived intact? All bar one, they had to do one over. |

So sorry to hear your sad news, how long have you got? Maybe not long, my wife just found out I'm going to Ashton Gate on a freebie hospitality tomorrow. I refused to take her to see Muse and then Elton John because it was at Ashton Gate. Sheed |

I refused to take her to see Muse and then Elton John because it was at Ashton Gate. Muse obviously played there as its the basis of their song Super Massive Sh!thole. Watford supporting Elton just to wind the locals up by singing I guess that's why they call it the blues. |

Do we really need planning to put a screen up within an existing Stand?

Do we really need planning to put a screen up within an existing Stand? Seeing as someone received a council letter in Plympton regarding the screen application think we may have gone over the top on size and appeasing the country before we do anything to ground |

Do we really need planning to put a screen up within an existing Stand? It's on top of the new SW stand, although you do have to wonder why it wasn't included in the initial application, unless there were concerns that would delay getting pp even further. |

Welcome to Bristol 2024. Progress and development not welcome. I see this morning Oxford have agreed to a 250 year long lease where there new ground will be built. It's a shame we the couldn't come to any agreement with council/developers which would allow us to have a modern stadium. It seems easier in a one club city, where the council seems to bend over backwards to supply land etc. I still can't understand why the UWE never went ahead, it's not like the land has ever been put to a far better use. |

As I said (years later) the land has never been put to any better use, it seems most other clubs can finance new grounds whilst we're just stuck with the Mem being redeveloped. |

Difficult to say precisely as it doesn't seem to be listed on the application. But assuming the drawings are accurate to the scales provided, it will be approx 13m wide by 4m tall |

Any update of if they are filling the left hand side of the south stand and slapping a wall on it anytime soon?

I assume that will become clearly once we see the plans for East Stand development, one thing it does do is put to bad the suggestions it had been left open for the big TV to be installed |

The documents show the size and location relative to the stand(s) and the houses - so everyone can clearly see how big it will be relative to the existing structures... [edit] in the same way that if I told you someone was building a 4-storey block of flats, the exact height is not important - how it will end up relative to everything else alread nearby is the key factor |

The first NEUTRAL comment on the BCC portal was added on the 12th May 2024.
I expect the routine suggestions included will all be correctly actioned in the process of installing the screen.
Commenter Type: Neighbour
Stance: Customer made comments neither objecting to or supporting the Planning Application Comment
Reasons: Comment:
The size of the LED screen appears to be approximately 12 metres wide by 4 metres high, and the framework to support such a large screen, plus a camera position, will have to be of a suitable size to take the anticipated load on the platform, bearing in mind the framework will also be straddling the newly installed South-West stand.
Further, the existing stand will require modification to allow for what appears to be a flat platform forming a new roof over the seating area. An access route to the new platform does not appear to have been detailed in the drawings provided, but will undoubtedly add to the construction work required in what is a constrained corner of the stadium site.
Whilst I have no concerns which would warrant an objection there is still the issue of work being carried out in a confined area close to a number of residences on Strathmore Road.
Unfortunately, lack of consideration of near resident's amenity during recent periods of development at the stadium has not been as it should be.
I therefore suggest a Construction Management Plan (CMP) should be required for the project, to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
The CMP should provide:
- emergency contact number;
- Start and finish times of construction works/operations;
- Plant to be used, with restrictions (times, etc) on the use of potentially noisy equipment;
- Times and Routes for delivery of plant/materials to site;
- Method of preventing mud being carried onto the highway should such measures be necessary;
- Arrangements to receive abnormal loads or unusually large vehicles, if necessary;
- Methods of communicating the Construction Management Plan to staff, visitors and neighbouring residents and businesses.
- Locations for loading/unloading and storage of plant, waste and construction materials;
- Any necessary temporary traffic management measures if necessary; and
- Any match day safety measures to be put in place around the construction site/stored materials/etc. if the works are carried out during the football season or when events are taking place.
Thank you

The first OBJECTION on the BCC portal was added on Monday 13th May 2024.
It looks like a typical opening shot designed to raise multiple concerns in the hope one will be the silver bullet.
Comment Details
Commenter Type: Neighbour
Stance: Customer objects to the Planning Application
Comment Reasons:
This screen will add to the size of the newly built stand, blocking more light, and be further eye sore. In the plans it does not mention the size, it does not mention what the back of the screen will look like for the residents.
The newly built stands already stand out having been painted a blue - that doesn't even match the clubs brand colours. This screen cannot be approved until more information is given showing what the screen will look like for the residents.
I also object to this, as it feels like the club is piece feeding the plans in order to get what they want. I would strongly argue that a final state plan of the stadium would be of benefit.
I also oppose as the objects for the last build have to be fully met, are they not supposed to work with the council to help with parking? What about the planting of new trees?
Until more information is given, and the last planning permission is fully finalised no further work should be allowed.
