FLEETWOOD, Lancs, August 28, 2008
Floodlights tested during first team training this evening.
Fleetwood Town are delighted to announce redevelopment work commenced at Highbury Stadium on Monday. Clearing work at the rear of the Park End stand is underway and will be shortly followed by the demolition of both that stand and the 'scratching shed'. This is the first part of a £1 million project that includes the replacement of two stands, Football League standard floodlights and a new supporters bar. Work is due to continue through the close season and the completion date is set to coincide with the start of the new season.
Andy Pilley: "It's been an extraordinary few days for Fleetwood Town. Seeing the stadium redevelopment start straight off the back of Saturday's promotion as UniBond Premier League champions is great news for all concerned with the Club. This is solid evidence of building work and puts into place plans that have taken months and months of preparation. The new facilities will certainly boost the new season in the Blue Square Conference North. Although the building work is evident for anyone walking or driving down Highbury Avenue, the fans will have an opportunity the see the work for themselves when we play Bradford Park Avenue on Saturday in our last game of the season".
Mark Bell, Peter Marquis, Preston (site team lead): "We are here to demolish the two stands and clear the earth banking from around the back of the stadium. It's our first day and if all goes to plan the job will last two weeks".
