Floodlights Update

[Fazered]

How are the lights put on the top of these new floodlight towers with no ladders,are they hauled up on a winch or what ?.

Some have a wire others a hinge in the base

Evidently new ones to go up before the old ones come down, work due to start shortly..

Are the new ones the same height as the old ones ?.

Remember it being stated they'd be 30M - so similar height to old ones.
On the "this week at Barrow" video, Austin mentioned that planning permission had been submitted - but there's no mention of it on the council website !!!

That should suit Paul then (Casson), I seem to remember him saying that the floodlights were a "prominent feature of the Barrow skyline"-something like that anyway-.
So if the new ones are the same height,brilliant !.

3 weeks to go until when the club stated the new floodlights would be in place - still can't find any mention of a planning application on the council website. Mystery or another season delay ??

Not sure it works like that. I don't think you can just join.

Its the other way round. Once you're in you can never leave.

once you've signed the Official Secrets Act there is no going back

I've been asking the same question for weeks since the club stated on a number of occasions planning permission has been applied for

there is no way these floodlights will be up anytime soon, in my honest opinion.

[spirit of 1990]

As far as I know nothing has changed, the start date is still the same and there are no problems.

I'm seeing if I can get an update right now.

Rome wasn't built in a day, .......

But there again, a former member of this forum; Brian Clough wasn't on that particular project.
