When’s the lid scheduled to go on, progress seems to have slowed a little. Frame was up this time last week was it not?
I think it was due to start being put up yesterday or today but the company doing it fell behind on another job, Monday now I believe.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Not sure. But there is a MASSIVE amount getting done. It will shut a lot of moaners up on here. "Well maybe"
Agreed. Hope my question didn’t come across as a moan genuine query.

I might be tempted once for where I stood when I was a kid. Old times remembered with mates and all that. The FA Cup games....legendary.

Holker Street end. Always has been. I think if you called it The Cowp Shed, it would be ridiculed by many. Barrows got a Cow Shed for supporters! Imagine that.
