SoL To Undergo Multi-Million-Pound Investment Programme

[Billy Fish]

It's not. You have three years to start after planning is granted. Get planning for both, do the East and that's it started.

Three years then two years to commence construction so effectively 5 years overall, and probably at least a year by the time it would be designed, submitted & approved.

How much are we talking about to get this extension done? I know the North stand wasn't an absolute fortune

It wasn’t a fortune, £6-7M for 6000 seats. It’s one of the less expensive cost per seat of any ‘modern’ stadium.

£15m for the initial 42,000 seats was dirty cheap even for the time.

The Riverside cost more (£16m) for 30,000 a couple of years earlier.

Yep and the mags paid about £45m to extend St James' from 36k to 52k.

Don’t tell him @Forrest Gump

Nobody likes secrets, diggers.

Just extend the South Stand into one continuous tier.
A Red and white wall that’ll take it up to what around 53,000?
That’ll be enough.

Aye the main reason they would want to extend is to have bigger concourses with more bars and restaurants and corporate options, which is where the real money is.

£18M & Ballast lost a couple of £M on building it
