saw the article today, big aul yoke - nearly a half page (broadsheet). gives a run-down on noel's weekly routine - he cuts Terryland 8 times a week and I think they put something like 120tonnes of sand on the pitch every year.
Ill scan it on tomorrow and put it online so ye can all have a look.

I see at the end of it it says that the new stand is going to be pre-manufactured elsewhere and then installed peice by peice. Can I take it that manufacturing is already in place? Anyone know the full details of it?

The planning office came back with five minor queries 2 in relation to the flloodlights.Once these are answered there will be a five week period for any objections and then the concrete base will be installed and after that it will take the construction Company 18 weeks to erect the stand. ALL THINGS BEING OK THE STAND WILL BE UP BEFORE THE START OF THE NEW SEASON.
