Did the club order the seating

Sorry if i've missed this, but just curious. Did the club confirm they've ordered the seats? Was it boxing day they wanted them in for? I know the roof needs another 2k.

No. After all the intensive effort in raising the money to buy the seats, the club couldn't be arsed to order them.H1987 wrote:Sorry if i've missed this, but just curious. Did the club confirm they've ordered the seats?

Amazing new main stand though....
Poor question but just in the way it's worded not so much the sentiment, would be a good positive story for the club to announce that the order was placed and expected to arrive on whatever date.Quakerz wrote:No. After all the intensive effort in raising the money to buy the seats, the club couldn't be arsed to order them.H1987 wrote:Sorry if i've missed this, but just curious.

Fuck me what a daft question to ask!
They're already 8 month too late, why rush now?H1987 wrote:Sorry if i've missed this, but just curious. Did the club confirm they've ordered the seats? Was it boxing day they wanted them in for? I know the roof needs another 2k.
Darlo don't rush I can't see them been done for the York game, due to the weather etc etcQuakerz wrote:As you already said, the club has already stated that they aim to have the seats in place for the York game - if there is any change I'm sure they'll let us know.
It was the BBC"s DIY SOS mob.Vodka_Vic wrote:I'm guessing that in order to be in place for the York game, work will need to start pretty soon. In terms of turn around time, these new stands can be put up pretty rapidly. Salford's last stand went up in about 4-5 weeks although the BBC probably paid for Bob the Builder and his team to help out.
Week on Monday??Darlo_Pete wrote:No doubt we'll get clarification of when the seats will be installed at Monday evenings meeting.
We hope to be in a position to update fans next week on the expected delivery and installation dates for the new seating block and roofing. We look forward to working with the Football Club to make the best use of these new facilities and improving the matchday experience for all our supporters.

A real fuck you to Martin Gray when he sees the fans funding of a new stand over his frivolous spending is coming to fruition.
Just embarrassing, isn't it Martin?

The whole point of switching the funds around was to get the seats in with no roof etc. earlier and York match was the target, roof to be added in advance of March 31st.quakerste wrote:Heard at the last game looking at February before the stand and seating are in place. Don't know how much truth is in that though.
