They will be open, I’ve got an ST in the new stand along with several others!

Do any of our fantastic photographers have before and after pics of the ground if possible? The ground looks outstanding nowadays, the change in just a few years is remarkable, its looking like a proper football league ground now !!!!

There’s a good view from the air from 2018, it would be very interesting to see one some five years later of the transformation.

The picture was being used at the time by someone comparing the development of Mill Farm AFC Fylde. We have progressed on the pitch and are getting our house in order off it slowly but surely. Whereas what happened to the master plan at AFC Fylde again!

Yes, good to see that the planning permission has been granted (4 August). There are some conditions on it, but nothing unexpected. The stands have a temporary permission for 5 years (to August 2028), but that is standard for these things and it can easily be renewed. The one about a drainage scheme has been worded so that a scheme has to be submitted within a month, rather than before the development commenced, which was the original wording - again, nothing to worry about.
It’s all looking great - now let’s have the football to fill them!
