I'm in no hurry for the redevelopment. They are not doing it for us anyway.

Having to queue for 5 minutes to piss into a blocked over flowing urinal is a small price to pay for the best atmosphere in the country.

The atmosphere isn't currently generated by the "best seats along the centre line" now in Peter Taylor, as these are largely corporate already. 
When you can sell 1 ticket for 1 game for the price of a season ticket, the club have to do it, otherwise all the other "normal" tickets have to be more expensive.

The club will have to balance getting in high paying "tourists/corporate" and regular season ticket & members (who generate the atmosphere and will remain for years).

New hire to try and speed the process along.

Seeing that the process is progressing as fast as an asthmatic ant with some heavy shopping he can only improve things.

Bloke on Twitter who’s called a few things on the stadium reckons big announcement on 26th.


RE: The Infrastructure Projects - TrickySte - 16-06-2025

Looks like a planning meeting has been arranged on that date.


RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 18-06-2025

Yes - Forest and Rushcliffe BC have confirmed meeting for that date.


RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 18-06-2025

Dan Taylor reporting that planning permission is likely to be granted subject to a number of planning conditions. Doesn't say what they are though.


RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Fumanchew - 18-06-2025

Probably no different to last time with the moving of the boat club being a necessity. A travel plan and s106 contributions being paid and probably even more up to date surveys


RE: The Infrastructure Projects - Ramsdale Red - 18-06-2025

Still a way to go I fear regarding the City Ground Development. Forest unlikely to proceed with the £130 m development of the Peter Taylor Stand until they have purchased the freehold of the ground and that is unlikely until approval is granted for the redevelopment of the Bridgford Road Stand. Also there is the small matter of sorting alternative premises for the Boat Club and having it operational before ANY construction works can start.  All a bit of a vicious circle unfortunately and I really feel the commencement of The City Ground Development is still some years away.
