All those drawings are good - it somehow makes it more believable.

Doesn't make it seem so far away when you can see everything - changing rooms, refs rooms, hospitality areas, boxes, offices, club shop, even the betting shops!

Oh...and a Trophy Room!

Great stuff - those are the drawings they had at the meeting, no?

So detailed, you can even see the referee's TOILET - just for Robbie Savage.

Is it me or are the North & south stands labeled in correctly. ?

My thinking is that with the Goldstone and Withdean, the south stand was always closer to the sea, hence south. but on the drawings the stand closest to the sea is labeled the north stand ?
 




The target decision date is 15/12/08

Whether they'll achieve that is a matter I wouldn't like to speculate on.

Quite so Ed.

From memory of the Stanmer Park access road widening saga there was:

1) The council officer's draft report for the Planning Committee (PC) that the Planning Dept management would not release to the Committee until further info/data had been requested from the club and the report modified.
2) The application couldn't be put on a PC meeting agenda (even provisionally) until the officer's report had been issued. The councillors are given 2 weeks (minimum) I think to review reports but the PC meeting agendas were full, so it was about 6 weeks before the application was considered by the PC.
3) The Planning Committee then decided to delay approval and go on a site inspection instead (for a 1 metre road widening ffs!); the decision was put back to the next PC meeting where there was room on the agenda - another 4-6 weeks. Why they couldn't have arranged the visit before the application ever got to a PC meeting is beyond me.

April 2009 sounds far more likely imo.

Are you looking at the orientation plan? On that one the stand nearest Falmer station is labelled as the North Stand, given that the stadium is south of the station I know that is actually correct.
