There will be an announcement in due course,we will have to wait and see,hopefully we will have reached the second target , even if it falls short it's a fantastic effort from everyone involved.lets wait for the official announcement .

i totally agree, to even raise the first target in that short space of time is a great effort. the ground grading debate aside. we are going home!

I think the extension was to coincide with the planning application which takes place this afternoon so we may be lucky and find something out this evening on both sides. To be honest the public can attend the planning committee meeting so should find out about this regardless.

Is our planning application for the 300k version?

Because if so, it doesn't look like that design will get us a 3,000 capacity to me.

We will no doubt get the application that was feasible to get through planning quickly and affordable to our budget from the money raised.

i agree with your points on the other threads about need 3000 capacity, but for me getting back to darlo at all costs has to be the current priority. And if we dont have the cash at the moment for the 300k then there is nothing we can do.

If it means a bit of a mishmash design later down the line so be it.

The proposals, which have a number of conditions attached, include plans to extend the existing clubhouse and to increase the ground’s capacity to 2,500 with the potential to further increase that to 3,000 if required in the future.

BOOOM!
