You do realise that Goldsmiths is not in Commercial Way right? It's in the Peacocks.

The address for Woking Shopping Centre (which seems to be the name Peacocks/Wolsey Place goes under these days) is Commercial Way

Has anyone got any idea of what these 'revised plans' are ?

The (slightly) cocky answer would be come and see !

Trust members will get a look see tonight and there is then tomorrow in the town which is open to all; there may well be an email to Trust members. Basically, as is to be expected, the revisions are responding to the comments and questions from fans and the consultations

Once plans are submitted there will be a lot at home games and available to all I am sure

Having had a glimpse personally I think they are very exciting for both club and community

I asked if they would be put on the 'stadium' website as obviously we live 55 miles away... I was told 'watch this space' - so I'm watching...

What time tonight for Trust members? I was told about tonight on Tuesday at the game and haven't seen an email for it.

Same here. This is the first I''ve heard about it.

7.30..... I am sure the Trust Board emailed out to all the Trust - I know others received it

Stoo, I’ve just forwarded it to what I think is your work address for you. Pass on to skippy if you have his email.

I thought it was too much of a coincidence!

Cheers mate, see you later.

Then I will check the Trust have the correct email for me and they're not sending it to my defunct trust email.
I'd checked my junk folders after Tuesday just in case.

Is this in the Peacocks until 8:30 this evening? That sounds late. Will it be there after five?

That's correct

Can someone who either attended last night or has been today please summarise the differences between the old plans and the revised plans.

skippy · Post by **skippy** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 2:11 pm

There's not massive differences in the stadium plans, one of the concession areas is now proposed as a medical centre.
They've changed the floodlights from columns to gantries on the side roofs.
There's been some tweaking of the layouts but not much.

Most of the changes are to the resi scheme.

Hmmm the football management won’t be happy with the change in location of the floodlights.

On the weekly catchup, David mentions that now only 4% of the new build is above ten stories high. That's a big change.

Cardbattery · Post by **Cardbattery** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 3:54 pm

Annoying if we don’t have proper floodlights considering we have them currently

No it isn't, that's a bit of presenting of facts in the best light.
4% of the whole site is 10 storeys, well a lot of the site consists of a football pitch, roads, etc.
The residential build only makes up 23% of the site, so over 15% of the residential development is 10 storeys.
This is a reduction because previously about 20% of the resi was 10 storeys+

Important about the presentation... We have now been told we must be out of the peacocks by 6.00 rather than 8.30. Apologies

Could the new stadium plan brochure that Dowse is showing in the catchup video today be made available somewhere as a downloadable pdf so that those of us who are not local can see all of the plan in detail.

This. Astonished it's not available via the club site given its importance. Happy to help if needed.

The club and floodlights are secondary to what WBC wants. Lets not hope for too much
