I think it's a question of competency - if the club can't get this right, and I mean giving a tangible date then what faith should we have when it comes to the big decisions like whether to sack a manager or hire one, whether to sign a player or not - you get my drift!
I undertand exactly what your drifting,so if you decide that the club are incompetent and unable to make these decisions,what then do you do,stop supporting.
Absolutely not - what is the obsession with "like it or lump it". I don't think I could ever stop supporting my home town team but I can find fault, I can critize and I can strive for it to improve. The minute we all sit there and stop striving for the club to be better is the day the club will die!
And on the 7th day god created football

Excellent. Very good news indeed. Anybody who has had to deal with business suppliers will know how frustrating delays in supply chains can be, especially if, as you have to, plan around given dates and then find, through no fault of your own, there is drag. Such realities are tough and hard though ultimately, have to be managed in a way that the business sees fit in any given circumstances. However, this visual step forward at least means that the Neg Brigade can and should move on and indulge itself in some other area of the Club that takes its immediate fancy. :)

Brilliant isn't it; I thought it would have taken a lot longer.

Great work by the club.
