It is hoped that the new north stand will be open for the Sheffield United match on 17th October, although it will be subject to the granting of a safety certificate. The much-delayed stand was originally due to open last season and, in July, the club reassured fans that the first use of the facility would be at the home game against Fleetwood, over a month ago.
Electricity connection s deleyed the 2,500 seater from being used but commercial director Mark Moisley assured, “While the club shares the frustration of supporters over the delays, we are excited at the prospect of the opening and will be providing weekly updates to supporters in the countdown to this.”
