And earlier this one:
[urlhttp://www.thisishullandeastriding.co.uk/Hull-KR-East-stand-extension-ready-start/story-11944716-detail/story.html[/url
But not anything on it being canned/postponed. I remember talk of it being delayed to get economies of scale with the north stand build, but if the funding is in place as has been said in all the above articles, why would it not go ahead. IMO it would be biggest bang for buck in terms of return.'" I belive that it all stems back to the fact that there ended up being a shortfall that fell into millions (Due to the origional costing being MILES out).
The club with the NHS's concent lobbed in the East stand monies to try and help get it over the line so to speak.
So the NHS are now going to be in the North stand.
The East stand had to take a backburner over what is a crucial build at the North end.

| Quote ="Mrs Barista"It is now though. So is the assumption that the £300k from the NHS and £750k RFL funding being used on the North? Would be a bit odd though as the funding for the North is supposed to be through a combination of ERDF and prudential central government borrowing by Hull City Council.'"
After the travails of getting the North stand started, I don't think anybody really cares enough to develop theories or make assumptions. Unless the NHS come out and shout foul, I don't see an issue.

Thanks, I wonder how many the planners "required" in the east? maybe half as many, if the extension was about 1200 (half or so of the north)

Not saying it's an issue. But there is lack of clarity about what happened to the £750k RFL funding for the East extension. Mr Skywalker suggests it's gone towards getting the North over the line, which seems plausible. In which case, sending letters to other SL chairmen to say the RFL's not supporting SL clubs seems inconsistent.

| Mrs B., the grant from the RFLs development fund for the East Stand ext'n was not transferred to the North Stand.
The NHS have opted to be housed in the North stand under a different arrangement. The lump sum of £250,000 toward the East Stand ext'n is replaced by a lease agreement.
The proposed South Stand project includes the East corner space (where the extension was supposed to be). Funding applications include a grant from the RFL development fund which I assume is the monies you are mentioning.
On your tongue-in-cheek troll re Hudge's letter, I like to think a person of your intellect will know the difference between capital funding and working capital.

The NHS are now to be housed in the North stand though.
I belived the monies they had provided was to be added to the pot as was any cash Rovers had for the East stand but Paul T's idea of the NHS just having a lease in the North is also a watertight idea.
Either way the NHS are now in the North as the North stand takes priority over an East stand extension.

That is a new structure being built right next to the new entry road.
As for what it actually is I have no clue although thanks to Trace on a bit of digging for the other site she has found this.

[iThe garden faced tough competition but was acknowledged and commended by the judges for raising awareness of a very real and increasing problem in today’s society. Having swept the board with the most prestigious awards at the show, the garden has been carefully deconstructed and brought back to Yorkshire where it will be reconstructed outside the grounds of Hull Kingston Rovers Rugby Club, in the hope that it continues to educate people against knife crime and raise awareness of the devastating effects this can have on an individual and their families.[/i
But that is supposed to be 'outside' CP when the new structure in deffo 'inside'.

Good insight, thank you. On your last point, however, it doesn't take a genius to recognise that cash is king. If I were relying on a RFL handout to get the South Stand over the line as you imply, I would question the wisdom of writing to other chairmen criticising the potential paymaster for not also providing cash to make up income shortfalls/cost overspends in my operating cashflow, that's all. Seems a bit odd.

| I like that garden, bit Banksy.
I used to play for a mixed sex volleyball team and Everthorpe YOI were in our league, terrifying place, we always lost.
As an aside, gotta love The Tea Lady. Mines one seam, draws a blank, sees a chink in a completely different direction and pursues it with the zeal of a Jehova's Witness fresh to the knock.

That's called versatility. She'd have made a great half back.

If you want to talk about the NH letter there is a nice thread about it either on here or on the VT.

I don't actually think they are connected but the new construction reminded me about the artwork coming to CP which was why I mentioned it.
It is new to CP so is inkeeping with the thread about building works.

I instantly thought Banksy too, how cool are we.

If you look at it correctly it has two walls chest high at the back and adjacent to the RM stand, these walls are finished at either end and have capping work in the iside face, the other two walls are actually the same height as the square structure in the middle with a gap at the front and side to allow access. When the paving stones are added and the walkway upto it the shorter walls will only be one or two bricks above floor height, this looks like it will be a display area to me and the Everthorpe garden would fit in there in some shape or form.
