The council will not allow the old stadium to be knocked down until the new one is built, part of the original agreement if I remember rightly? Justin Tomlinson is also still watching over things as he has been bombarded on Twitter and Facebook by fans, Quote.... "Re: Concerns about complaints of noise from residents of the new houses. Hmm, not sure they'd have much grounds buying a house next to a stadium! In theory the same worry applied when St. Andrews Ridge was built, but residents not only didn't complain, but overwhelmingly supported the campaign to keep the stadium in 2008.
Finally have also been working hard to make sure the community facilities are enhanced, in particular the market facility being upgraded which is much needed for the hard working traders. I have also put forward a number of local organisations / businesses that potentially could also use space within the new stand."
