The HSE have indicated that the ground will reopen on the 18th of this month after braces are put on 2 of the other columns

So in time for the Toronto match then.

They also said it would be ready in December and then the first week in January and here we are

It might not be the structural issue with the existing Floodlights that's the issue here, it might be more the left over glass and metal embedded all over the pitch from the fallen one. I would assume the pitch will require completely re-laying. Finding metal is one thing but how the heck do you go about finding all the glass...?

Glass?

Glass?

Bunch of fannies, when I was a lad we had a brick for a ball a we played on nails, and we were glad for it.

Neil Hudgell, stated in an interview that work would commence on the lights the first week in January not that the work would be completed by then

Yes Sandro but that was 150 yrs ago they are all snowflakes now LOL

He earlier said the team would be training on the pitch by the beginning of January I’ll believe it when I’m stood in the east stand for the derby until then I won’t believe anything they say

If you choose not to believe what the club say that is up to you

Well on this matter I’ve been proven right so far

How?

Because the ground still isn’t open how hard is it to understand

As far as I am aware the club has never given a timeline as to when the ground would reopen. All statements released by the club contained the statement “ KCOM Craven Park will remain closed until further notice” if you can provide a link to a statement saying The team would be training on the pitch by the beginning of January. I will gladly apologise.

I can’t be bothered looking for links I wouldn’t know how to post them anyway just look on the hull daily Mail website and you should find the info

I believe the remainder of the floodlights have been condemmed.

I believe in Father Christmas, UFOs etc but it doesn't mean that they are real.

One year we'll sign good players, have good a pre season training without freak injuries and have no weird dramas during a single closed season. Only managed 2 out of 3 for years now.

No they haven’t, the one that fell has and 2 of the remaining 3 are having braces put on them as the wrong length bolt was fitted, ground reopens on the 18th of this month if HSE clear the work, hope this helps

The ground back to normal and the friendly against toronto 2pm saturday goes ahead.Temporary lights are are sorted to accomodate the derby against the 2nd best team in hull.

Who are we playing, Dockers or Skirlaugh?
