Just back - a little underwhelmed if I’m honest ( but that comes with ‘over promising’ ).
Not much to add to Widdow’s summation other than:
- redevelopment confined to PT stand at this stage ( disappointed - BC stand as an example in need of urgent work to allow smooth entry/exit/movement & ability to eat/drink. Attract fans early. Retain post match. Enjoy profits currently drained by local hostelries ).
- boat clubs virtually unaffected ( only 1 building out of 4 to be demolished? )
- 2 x residential blocks are part of the development.
- healthy discussion took place whilst I was there re in-house catering & bars ( learn from Spurs initiative where for 5 hours pre/during/post game the ground is pretty full with fans eating & drinking at reasonable prices - can/will Forest learn from this & adopt at least some of it ).
