Most likely the design of the structures make the junctions not possible.

Because the Trent End roof would fall in.

Probably to save the time, effort and finance to convert part of the upper-BC into a temporary directors' box and press/media area. Also, unless a cherry-picker-type appliance is used on the Taylor Stand-side when the structure is finaly demolished, a TV-camera/commentator-gantry will need to be constructed in the BC Stand, meaning a potential loss of seats.
I had a look at the covering letter that went in with the planning application relating to the new structures either end of the Trent End stand. It states that they are temporary for a period of up to 5 years while the new main stand is built and will be necessary to comply with media requirements as well as providing corporate hospitality during that period.

Said just as much to my old man on the way out. On nights like that, there is genuinely nowhere else I'd rather be than the City Ground. Utterly magical.

Where's me hammer?
Still see the supporters club spending their cash supporting the boat club last night with their little sign up bragging about it.
"Supporters Club" what an oxymoron

Has any threatened them yet?
Sorry, I mean has anyone written a letter of concern to them yet?

Such a good week on the field. Let's hope for some good news regarding this to start the year off.
Nights like last night make me realise I don't want to move anywhere else. Spruce it up, new stand whenever that is - we have a gem of a ground and we'd lose our soul if we left.

Absolutely. This should be widely advertised by the Trust and programme outlet. Even the club should have a very clear statement on their social media and websites encouraging fans not to support these people, with a highlight on the impact on the club.

Yeah... it's difficult to understand why fans would choose to drink in there doesn't it? Surely people are aware of the 'boat club fly in the ointment' tactics?!

As I understand it we've committed to sourcing and building a replacement boat house.
If we have locations identified and the rowing club are dragging their heels, fook 'em. If we haven't even given them any alternative yet, we should probably be directing that frustration at the club.
It's taken hiw many years though now? with little progress.

Music man made up for his f*** up by adding Rockin' All Over the World to the end of game playlist if we win. Hopefully we hear that a few more times this season.
I don't want to hear Don't Stop Me Now anymore, that was Steve's thing.

Can’t beat a bit of Quo after a victory.
A few reports on twitter that there was plenty of United fans in the home end and I know of one plastic twat that sat in the Trent End via his Facebook post in our WhatsApp group.
Surely the only way they could have got hold of a ticket is if a Forest season ticket holder or priority member gave them their ticket?
f***ing rats.
