All we hear is new plans, applications, designs etc.

However, when is any of this going to happen?

Being in the construction industry how schemes are dealt with and handled always interests me.

Surely, having been in Premier League for many seasons now, it must be the right time for them to get going.

Apart from reports that they want Defoe in the Jan window ..... shows their ambition does it not ... a 36y/o out of favour striker to get them goals

Now see that Fulham are rebuilding one of their stands in New Year. Talk about the hare and the tortoise.

If only some of the resident Palace fans that post here were around to comment on this but for some strange reason they've been incredibly quiet recently...

yes a badger set has been found under the stand and bats are in the rafters together with the newts outside --- this is causing terrible issues

Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish says work on the huge Selhurst Park multi-million pound redevelopment will start "as soon as possible".

Croydon Council’s planning committee unanimously granted official permission for the rebuild in April, which will see the ageing Main Stand replaced with a modern five-storey stand, increasing the capacity of the ground from 26,000 to more than 34,000.


As well as this, the revamped stadium will also provide better facilities for disabled supporters and bring needed improvements to the ground.

The project is estimated to cost between £75 million and £100 million.

Before work can start, the club and council bosses have been locked in negotiations over the terms of the Club’s Section 106 obligations. These obligations were set out by the planning committee and in the club's proposal, meaning as part of the redevelopment the club has to fund transport and community improvement initiatives.

Those negotiations have not yet concluded, and as such, there is no start date as yet for the project.

At the conference on Tuesday, Parish also said that plans to fund the redevelopment were now in place, but that negotiations were continuing with the council relating to the purchase of land and houses that is a condition of planning permission.

As such, there is no confirmed date as yet for the start of the project, but he added that he hoped work would begin "as soon as possible."

Not that funds ARE in place then. Just the "plans" to. What happened to this ringfenced money we were told about (that doesn't appear on their accounts).

Telling.
