Just listened to the podcast available on Spotify. A good listen.
The basic points being:
Stadium should be up to planning in November. That’s as dictated by the council. We will more likely move out for the rebuild as so much is within the old stand like changing rooms etc.
We have a plan b to add seats, create better facilities for directors and sponsors, add extra safety barriers…. This to be paid for from the 2m from the council. The plan b is for extra delays which are out of our hands.
The stadium build has the rise or lowering of materials built into it so no extra cost.
IMG criteria. We have been given points of 12.73 I think he said, which would mean a b and somewhere between 8th to 10th position. There is another regrade at the end of the season, so it will come down whether it’s a 11th or 12th placed finish this year. The next grading will be the one used for the 2025 season. It should be roughly the same, maybe a little worse as we are all paying off the COVID loans.
We can do the extra work on plan b or the new ground and extra financing. This could give us over 15 points and a grade a licence.
The 2 new buyers don’t have the club to hear and weren’t looking at anything other than making money. They’re out.2 more looking at us
