The Keith Hussey Stand was an embarrassment, just some scaffolding with a roof stuck on top.
Hopefully a proper stand will be put up in it's place.
Dowse did mention, in one of his earlier interviews about a new stand. Maybe a new Keith Hussey stand is it.
Yeah I'd agree it wasn't great but it did at least give a bit of shelter from the elements.

We popped in for a quick look. The green 'Carpet' is starting to be laid. A strip down one side and a portion at the far end. The wooden fence at the far end has gone and is being replaced by a brand new wooden fence. Still looks to be quite a lot of work yet to do.

But what will happen when both clubs play at home at the same time :D ?

Obviously they would have to stagger the kick off times so you could move the barriers between the two clubs.

Let's hope there is no traffic congestion on the days in question!

I'd heard it was the same pitch as well...now that really could cause a problem!

Would need a second ‘man and his van’ probably.
