[Football] Any progress at Selhurst?

Motogull said:

The wankpuffins are excited by the prospect of all the extra income that would generate, so as to fund a title contending squad.

The thing is, the so called ring fenced funds would not be a gift would it? I mean, its really a loan (investment) isn't it? Wouldn't the investors want some of the income as a return?

Anyone brighter than me have any intelligence on this?

So it's the houses at '4 o'clock' that's the problem?

Can you imagine living in those houses that are staying?

Never has the phrase “polishing a turd” seemed so apt.

But this is a turd with a 'central barrel vaulted arch with famous Eagle crest'

So did work start on time, at the end of 2018?



Another thing from that video.
How can rebuilding this stand effect the 'length' of the pitch?

Steve Parish has assured Crystal Palace fans work is progressing with the redevelopment of Selhurst Park and he “won’t rest” until the new stand is built.

Crystal Palace have been given planning permission by Croydon Council to build a new Main Stand, which will increase the capacity of Selhurst Park from to 26,000 to more than 34,000.

The Eagles would like to begin work on the redevelopment, which will cost between £75m to £100m, at the end of this season with a view to it being ready for the 2021/22 campaign.

However negotiations are still ongoing with Croydon Council over Palace’s Section 106 obligations, as per the Town & Country Planning Act 1990, to fund transport and community improvement initiatives.

Until that is agreed work cannot begin, but Standard Sport understands talks are progressing well and just a few issues need finalising.

The Eagles are also making progress with work on their new academy and Parish, Crystal Palace’s chairman and co-owner, has assured fans he is determined to deliver both projects.

“Things are moving forward,” said Parish as he addressed Eagles supporters at Tuesday's Crystal Palace awards.

“Certainly from me, I won’t rest until we see that new stand built and we see the investment in the academy.

“What all these guys want to see, what the players want to see, is progress of the club. We have had some difficult moments with that and there are still some hurdles to get over.

“But that and the academy, we are 100 per cent committed to. Don’t think for a minute that I don’t think like a supporter when I see what Tottenham are doing and other clubs.

“We need to get there. It is a big challenge for me and a big challenge for everyone at the club, but we need to make sure it happens.”

They are still trying to get hold of the full plans for our stadium so they can copy all of it rather than just one stand

I heard the toilet openings will be three times bigger in the changing rooms in case the coach drivers suddenly feel the urge.
