    For anyone still scared of the OS, there is an update on the training ground work with some good pictures and a bit of Youtubery to go with it. Also a few details about that much speculated upon break (plans were changed to remove Sir Clive's dome completely). Don't let anyone tell you Nicola isn't here for the long haul.

    Ah I heard at the time it was to strengthen the dome supports, but guessing they changed their mind.

    by the looks of that figure walking alongside the spa, they've put far too much chlorine in.

    Are Solent Interiors involved and have they been paid? I just thought I should get that one in before the conspiracy theorists finish their evening meal and appear on here!

    Apparently the Dome hasn't been scraped, they are just starting from scratch as builders had concerns over the structure.

    You're all wrong, work stopped because we have no money and are on the verge of bankruptcy.

    NC had a little win on the Lottery and has pushed on for a couple of weeks.

    Firstly, whoever did the video: pavilion only has one 'l':mad:

    Glad they have chosen to update us as sometimes we are left in the dark. I'm always torn between thinking NC is the greatest thing in the known universe and believing we can't be this lucky. Going to be some facility...factory for little footballers.

    That's just the old Saints fan in you. Be assured, he is the greatest thing in the known universe and, amazing though this fact may appear to be, we are this lucky**. :)

    **If you believe in luck. I just think our timing was superb.

    Looks like you are right there. Seems like a fairly major extention to the job so it really shows that they want this to be good. Particularly as we are bankrupt, owe the builders and have to play Guly for 15 minutes a game :laugh:

    Admittedly it was a three figure sum on the Daily Play, same as me £2.80 but you have to be in it to win it.

    Yes, it is a bit of a nightmare to navigate, and when your Broadband is as slow as mine it is so slow to load up.

    It's a typical football website with videos and other resource hungry bits and bobs on the front page. Use an advert and video blocker and your access should speed up.

    Yeah, means we can steal all the good players in the area. Sucks to be Skates and Boscombe.
