Beveree Chat

Thanks for the detailed report, Les. I learned more from that than from all the official communications from the club.

So even the press officer doesn't know what's going on behind the padlocked gates.

I mean the ground is currently a “building site” so of course members of the public aren’t just welcome to stroll in, as they were still welcome to do throughout the back end of the season. The term "building site" implies there are some building works going on. So what exactly is being b...

Spill the beans then HM! What developments did you spot at the ground before the security guard told you to clear off?

I agree with just about everything Jamie's said in that post.

GR tourist - the vast majority of supporters in fact pretty much all will be looking forward to see the club developing both on and off the field. Some obviously will moan and complain regardless. Im sure there are one of two City supporters harking back to the days of Nicky Weaver and Tommy Caton....

Some quotes from one of the directors that I contacted on Monday.... "A range of works is progressing and supporters are asked to stay away from the ground for safety reasons." "As a precaution, we have asked for early league fixtures to be away, if possible." "It's bound to...

This is the way of "bigger and better funded" clubs though isn't it. All announcements are relentlessly upbeat and positive. Anything about difficulties or problems just isn't made public. Some may say it's all about controlling the agenda and narrative or maintaining a positive image. Ot...

It might be that the lack of information is because there are factors both allowed for and unexpected that make firm information difficult . If they released dates which proved wrong then can you imagine the comments. I think you're being very generous to the new owners. If they'd had the confidenc...

Think DB's use of irony went unrecognised there..

Obviously I hope my doubts are unfounded but it's the lack of openness from the club (i.e. the new owners) that's caused them. Most clubs would have been eager to keep supporters informed of any stadium developments during the close season but we've all been reduced to guesswork as to what the plans...

I don’t see why that would be the case. We still have our ground grading in place and the proposed works will only enhance that. Apart from HM, is there anyone else with a a niggling feeling in the back of their mind wondering if there'll be a ground to grade or a team to support when next season s...
