Will the Stourbr*dge Road terrace be open?

[HalesowenHarry]

I believe it should be, we'll soon find out! I'm actually quite optimistic, which is very unusual for me, and even more unusual for this forum!!

Poor form from the club really. What was the need to remove the turnstiles? I'm sure I've read somewhere that it breaches health and safety if a ground only has one valid exit. Can anyone confirm?

If it's been done to add more facilities (I'm thinking toilets, burger van, even some form of bar? -
all or either would ultimately would be a great addition to the ground) then the work should have been started as soon as last season ended. To rip them out weeks before the new season clearly didn't give hard working volunteers enough time to finish the job. Now the ground, from the outside, looks like a building site.

I'd like to hear from someone at the club as to why this decision was taken and what the ultimate plan is for the Stourbr*dge Rd End.

Maybe it's just me but it seems your asking an awful lot of the club considering the fantastic amount of work that has taken place over the summer, and the work that is yet to be done according to the people I talk to, word at the grove is that the fencing contractors are on holiday at the moment and will resume work on the outer fencing when they return. In my opinion the ground is something we can all be proud of, the efforts I can imagine the club and volunteers have put in are really appreciated by me and I assume many others

Is the Stourbr*dge Rd entrance going to be open tomorrow?
If not, is the footpath to Old Hawne Rd unobstructed and accessible?

Not sure about the entrance being open, but the footpath was fine to use Tuesday evening.
