Wow! If there was definitive bad news I'm sure Bill would have delivered it by now.

The good news is not of his making. Perhaps there are a few things that need to be signed off before the council will up the capacity. We shall have to wait and see.

It's the silence that I find disconcerting. If we are waiting on Trafford's decision then say it. If we need to do more then say it. At least keep the fans updated one way or another, not least by now.

And I agree that a commercial event which fans pay to attend is not a proper platform for discussing the safety and capacity of the ground.

Frustrating given the excellent statement last Friday.

Had a mate asking me if he can get six tickets
 There must be literally hundreds of people waiting to find out . Like has already been said . I don't blame the board for the issues. But speak to us !!

Not me, but some people have day jobs. Communicating with fans is important but so is earning money, some of which is invested in the club. The chairmen have dayjobs and they won't be doing 37 hour weeks.

True, but we could probably do with a holding statement, to say that a fuller one will be delivered on Friday afternoon, or whenever.  A lot will depend, I am sure, on the timing of any decision by the Trafford SAG.

Strikes me that TBC are playing by the marquis of queensberry and the club don't know what to say until they're told something definite.
I wouldn't blame the club in this case, they're the victims too here and any comments they make could be misconstrued by the council.
For the board it's a lose-lose situation. Let's cut them some slack until Friday.

It seems the vindictive approach is continuing . I can't see how they are justyfying this now given the areas have been declared structurally safe . Dispicable

It does sound rather strange that the council seem to be acting in a high handed fashion if the Golf road and Pop side are sound then what is the problem.

Thanks to the co Chairman for the update, I expect he is as frustrated as we all are…

Hopefully normal service will resume on the 11th Dec..

Given that a certain amount of work has been done, but the capacity remains unchanged, although, understandably, Southend have a larger proportion of the ground than  Gateshead did, it seems as if the new work has not been checked for whatever, if any, reason. If so, that's very poor on the council's part.

I had a suspicion this was coming. It's not down to the club, but if the person who contacted the council in the way they did is connected to the football club, they really have a lot to answer for.
