Ouch.
SA.
Forest have a big screen at Meadow Lane and Notts ground share with Alfreton or Sneinton or maybe Burton Joyce?
I heard the press release on Radio Notts this morning. Forest have a bright future. But the release of good news was coupled with Nott's financial jeopardy. They're in deep, deep trouble.
SA.
I hope they can stay up and survive, I think the only club I would maybe snigger at if they did cease to exist would be mk dons

If you're at work with no sound, leave it and watch it at home this evening.
It's inspirational!!
Can you imagine the club being able to produce anything like this under the ownership of Fawaz?
It's all bout the mind. Vision. The new leadership have it. Passion. Intensity. Knowledge. Experience.
Breathtaking promo'.
It had me at 'hello.'

Aye. I hope they survive.
But the MK Dons...I wouldn't feel bad about...

The extended timeline isn't just for the main stand but the entire redevelopment, including all 4 stands, in fact with the flats, hotel, retail unit, hospitality, commercial, etc. there'll probably be workmen on site for over 3 years, but structured & layered in such a way as to cause minimal disruption.
Aye. All four stands to give the place a unified refurbishment and identity.
Are the flats, retail unit etc. related to Marinakis' ownership? Or just happen to be related to developing the rest of the area? Or are Forest in partnership with the overall development?
Either way, I'm glad it's not just the Taylor stand. The vision is about a total refurb for world class ground.
38k capacity.
A stunningly well timed announcement.
To have MoN/Keane here as well it's beautiful poetry.
Love to have them take up, keep us in the Premier as we build it.
Is destiny calling..?

I’m not working on the project directly. There have been early discussions with planning. The issues of rights to light have been considered and there appears to be a workable solution.

The hotel, flats & new mega store are all part of the development, this is a very big project.
I see. So this is about more than the refurb dev' of the City Ground, 'we're' involved in the dev' of the area as a whole..?
(Something that was muted about the potential American involvement/owners...)
This adds a broader vision to the City Ground in a 'wide screen' development of the whole area. That just adds weight and excitement to the project.
This is the kind of infrastructure project Nottingham needs. Birmingham can keep it's Bull ring, and Derby Leicester their flat packs on an old industrial crisp packet.
Here, here.

Welcome, posts, Red81.
I was wondering about the 'right to light' issue and the 'odd shape' of the Bridgeford stand. With innovative architecture they should get around that.
The design looks stunning from a distance. Hope planning goes through.
I can't wait until it's finished!

It'll be a shame if we lose the big TVs that Fawaz bought :D

Worth picking up a copy of the Post today... seven pages of coverage on this, including a spectacular wrap-around image on the front and back page. Genuinely this is a big, big day for the club. Staying at home on the banks of the River Trent... #mistrollingin
RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - Username - 28-02-2019
Both statements refer to "The New City Ground", are they slightly renaming the ground too, like "The New Den" etc?
RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 28-02-2019
Tails in his webchat suggested that the name would remain as The City Ground.
RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - Joe Baker Legend - 28-02-2019
Just seen this on Twitter, takes me back to watching Training down Holme Road, do we own the ground down there?
Just seen it says Holme Pierrepont, not Holme road.
