From what I read into it, works are only being carried out to three stands, North, South and Milton End. I read somewhere (when proposals were initially released) the Milton End would cost £6m. That leaves £4m to spend on the North and South stands. Not a lot in the grand scheme of things. Although I suspect this is being earmarked for corporate facilities, means of fire escape improvements and bars etc.
Caitlin did mention previously that a new North stand would cost circa £25-30m. So this looks like it is certainly not part of the current proposals. Nor are we going to do anything with the Fratton End. I thought the whole reason we kept 13m behind the FE (as part of the Tesco deal) was to extend it? Again not included in what has been published today.
So what are the long plans??? Stay at Fratton? Maintain current orientation or rotate 90 degrees (best option IMHO) or build a new stadium elsewhere?
