In a video interview on the official site, Graham Turner adds further woes to the ground situation with the news that the terracing under the former Len Weston stand will also have it's capacity cut.
In the interview, Turner says that while the crush barriers were tested fine they are now too long for current regulations and that they will have to be cut to make additional walkways - bringing the capacity of Edgar Street further down. Turner hopes, once the final calculations are done, that the capacity will remain above the Football League requirements of 5,000.
Turner will seek permission from the Football Licencing Authority to allow some people to stand on the flat area at the front of the Merton Meadow but, he acknowledged, that the letter of the laws was against the request.
