Early deals ... so has the new stand started and how will they get the £100m that they ring fenced and then spent?
In the article I pasted but wasn’t allowed , it explained all of that, no money raised from player sales will go into financing the work on the ground, it’s two different pots.

I suppose they haven’t actually started piling no, but they have started the pre work as I mentioned they have to have the new away dressing rooms finished so the porta cabins can be removed allowing the large plant to access the plant.
Like decorating you may start painting a room but not until you have moved the furniture and masked up the skirting board.

The article states that "Although the major work is not expected to commence until at least later this year..." (emphasis mine). Parish is quoted as saying "The project is a little behind, ..."
Five council-owned houses and one privately owned home in Wooderson Close need to be demolished. The club "has begun the process of obtaining a compulsory purchase order for the privately owned home." (They need to find a site for, and build, the equivalent homes they are demolishing, within the same area, to ensure no net loss of housing).
The club is currently tendering for quotes and deciding on a main contractor for the project.

If it’s the same article you did miss a few points out ? Unless I saw a longer arrival.
The Selhurst park improvement was delayed as it was decided to concentrate on building and finishing the academy which has been completed.
They hope contractors will be onsite by September.
We will see but IMHO getting the class one academy up and running had to prioritise the Selhurst park build. And as you can see with our U18s and U21 and ladies team as well as the subs bench this is paying off.
Also this was made in COVID times when a lot of things were up in the air.

I know the vibe of this thread is to gently mock the Croydon Clown Collective, but I am beginning to get a little bored of this ring-fenced-money-no-stand thing. Is it just me?

Nope, I'm not bored, having endured all the crap comments whilst at Withdean, whilst we were looking for planning and even when we were building the stadium, nope, I'm not bored at all, in fact, just getting started.
What like they did last week.

It has started. New away dressing rooms are being moved to the lower holmesdale so the portacabins can be taken away thus freeing up that corner as the work on clearing parts of the ground commences. The state of the art new stand will be magnificent.

You really are terminally dull, Dougal. Who cares what your Poundland Amex stand will look like, other than it’ll make your other three stands look, in contrast, even shitter than they are now. Lipstick on a pig.
