Wendies potential 3 window transfer ban

[Beaufighter]

Was reading through a long thread on Owlstalk about the North Stand yesterday and that was pretty illuminating. A contributor on there is clearly in the know and, I strongly suspect, due to his username, is the same guy who did the engineering design on NYS, has provided some information about what’s needed and why it’s not happening, despite some Wednesday fans denying it and telling him he’s wrong. Biggest thing for me is that the job has been costed at ?3m and the contractors won’t proceed until that money has been deposited in full in the ‘job account’ and as of last night nothing was in there. Six of the cantilever trusses need to be repaired, which must happen, and it was recommended that the whole roof be replaced, but that will be patched up. Work will take at least 6 weeks from the start date, which was supposed to be Monday, but won’t be if the funds aren’t deposited. They have sold well over half the capacity of that stand to ST holders but it will be shut well into the season, so they will need to be moved and the EFL requires 10% of ground capacity for away fans, so another headache on top. As if things weren’t bad enough over there.
